Totally agree that we should be talking here... But of all the people in my group right now, I'm getting a couple of likes and maybe a single comment - but right now, the only comments I'm getting are from the steemit bots that I've asked for which doesn't really pay. I was celebrating my first post to go over $6, but I don't have a single current one over $1. The fact I keep running into bandwidth issues is part of it, to be sure, but I do try to invest in people everyday, so that some of them will follow me enough to like my posts...

Yes, Facebook can be replaced (well, mostly anyway,) but it takes investing in each other to make Steemit really work.
