Isn't that part of content creation? not being guaranteed that you'd get positive, negative or no reception?
Positive reception: Fine.
Negative reception: Also fine.
Even neutral reception is fine.
No reception: Not fine.
Content creation on a social network is supposed to get some kind of reaction. That is why social.
If I want to write for myself, I open up some kind of text editor program. Or simply get a pencil and paper.
when some people that thrive
They have a lot of money. I do not.
I have multiple disabilities, and a low (approximately $250 USD per month), pension like income, which is less even that the minimum wage (approximately $550 USD per month).
Then are you consuming content of other people that create content here? how often do you check and engage with other members of the community? I think you have to earn your audience first before you start complaining why no one notices.
And also factor in the type of content you public. Would you read someone's thesis explaining complex algorithms without any practical use down to the finest technical details an expert could best explain with their respective field? I won't. It's not the type of content I would bother.
Is your content a popular topic relative to the type of ecosystem we have here on Hive?
If you're still having trouble answering that, then part of the problem is not getting that part.
You'd be surprised if you bothered to check that some of the leading earners aren't that loaded and just struggling as much as you do.
Yes. Regularly. Even now.
Almost every day. Being on the 16th place of the engagement league is a relatively good place.
I also give tokens for engagement.
Now I give you some !PIZZA.
No, I would not read that at all. And I would not write that either.
@adamada! I sent you a slice of $PIZZA on behalf of @xplosive.

Then understand that the people you're networking with may not have stake or the same interests aligned with your content. Even the votes I get are like that if not most of what I receive and I'm fine with it.
Nothing wrong about becoming frustrated after putting in the work but without any good results that come out from it. I get you as I do experience that from other platforms outside Hive. Just saying it's not all content that rules. You also need to consider that your supporters may not have the stake to get your posts with a lot of $ but that doesn't necessarily mean your content ain't good.
You're in an environment where your content or way of networking is inefficient or just too niche to gain traction. Compared to general mainstream art content and music that's easily relatable, yours is understandably unpopular but not necessarily lacking in value. Somewhere out there may be a platform that could suit your niche and give you the audience you may want.
Thank you for the Pizza.
