RE: Why Do We Bother To Create Content At All? Better To Abuse.

It is refreshing to hear you are living a success story. Congratulations.

Yes, but it was opposed by the same people who benefit most from the status quo:

I still think that the first principles are right on this concept. Unfortunately, having logical first principles and appealing to the masses are two entirely different things."

Not sure how I missed this response! Just looking at it now.. a good capture of what you are talking about, for sure. And "success story" might be a bit of a stretch just yet, but it is certainly making a difference for me. It was a difficult run for a lot of years as a musician and writer!

Well.. happy new year, nonetheless! Let me sing a new year's song for you to welcome 2018 - hoping it's a better year with some changes to the platform that may curtail some of the worst abuses.. maybe I'm super naive, but fingers crossed! xx, Kay

"Not sure how I missed this response! Just looking at it now.."

No worries...I am currently committing an even worse offense!

Steemit is a vortex. We all get a little lost! Lately I've been trying to look at/upvote (where deserved) the blogs of people who upvote and comment my posts, which is great, but now I'm slower and missing out on posting on things like this/keeping up on threads.

And keeping up with posting a song or article every day or so is already lots! lol. Always just a lot..

Hope you're well!

I recommend slowing your pace, or down-sizing the length of your posts, any time you feel overwhelmed. Really helps with burnout.
