Many of us feel the same for a long time man, so this is well said by you. I am drained out a bit but I gave it an UV here with some weight to it, with what I have left in the tank.
I actually have been seeking out good content / authors, for MONTHS who IMHO undervalued, or are new --- and send the links of the posts directly to some whales so as to help them out quietly.
I'm not stalking you I swear I visit here daily!
@denmarkguy's stuff is good, I always say it is undervalued, I wish more people read his blog.
He's always done great stuff here.

I think he appreciates them, he is a very well spoken guy on here as you can tell.
Seriously, you guys... I appreciate the interaction! For me, a "successful" post is often one that creates a lot of dialogue!

I always ask myself “would I spend hours a day reading and upvoting stuff that gets posted in this blank chat room. No, so much trash it’s not worth it 99% time.
Perhaps if you hit up the curtails ones and already know them maybe. I’ve never had luck with them either so I stop trying.
Me neither, everyone is like Join us on Discord!!
... and I am like
Nope.
Too many chat rooms and thingies, just way too much. You cannot be in everything.
good new content... and may take up a weekly feature I had on my old blog, many moons ago... highlighting 5 promising newcomers... not totally new; not looking for "one-hit wonders," but those who could become someone a few months down the road.Thanks @barrydutton, I'll toss a few back your way! Always appreciative of your encouraging words... I've been sincerely trying to find
I do have a brotherly love for you man.
And others too, like @clayboyn.
