I know with myself it's true I was putting in more effort two years ago (on my @sift666 account) - but that isn't actually because of moody Steemit or low crypto values, or Hardfork 20 - it's me being physically tired from some health issues, and also some Steemit burn out - I'm working on that too - after two years most people I know on Steemit have burned out a bit - @whatsup is a freak :)
