Steemit is a community, but sometimes it doesn't feel like one. Jeez! That was depressing, haha. Of the 608 followers that I have, 179 are dead and 502 are ghost followers. Well, it would be worse to have 1073 dead followers XD
Actually, it doesn't surprise me because in spite of having that many followers, I usually receive an average of no more than 15 upvotes per post. Sometimes, I feel that I post for myself and my small town of bots, lol!
