Thank you so very much for your candor regarding the state of Steemit at present. I regard your view as personal yet pervasive on the topic of voting and followers.
I sometimes wonder, if last month when there were so many problems with posting and voting if this wasn’t the point from the beginning as that was about the time when all of this mayhem began to happen.
Bloggers have dropped like flies, and just quit blogging all together. I too could go through my followers list and see that probably half of them no longer post. This saddens me greatly as many I miss very much. The content of their writing was something remarkable and yet we are left struggling with bots and greed. The future of Steemit seems short sighted, but not because the lack of genuinely brilliant ideas, but for lack of true managers that will not ask the community about their preferences and then abide by the majority. As usual money rules and the 80% go unnoticed. For your other investments I am greatful.
As for mine I have learned too little too late, sorry that I did not find this site months earlier.
