I enjoy some great conversations, and I built my account slowly over 2 years. I made 95 posts that didn't earn a thing. I absolutely enjoy engagement. In the early days I had to seek it out.
Now I get it, but I didn't get it over night.
If it doesn't work for you, I'm sorry to hear that, but as I said... Creating content and having visibility isn't easy anywhere. I created a twitter account and send out a bunch of messages, nobody engaged them at all. I started engaging with others on their accounts and guess what, my own account got some action. Building an audience is hard even where they don't hand out money.
Now, this makes a lot of sense
