You are absolutely right, @omitaylor.
I can completely understand about wanting to have a link tracking system in place - I actually had to go cold turkey when I started on SteemIt, because at that point in time (last November or so) the whales were actively going against shortened links.
I still miss my stats every once in a while :0)
It is true that you are not responsible for the ignorance of others.
So, I’ll take note of this and list it on my ‘what to educate people about’ (which is a very long list). And I’ll start by sharing your other post about protecting your ass...assets, which I think is a very informative post.
I haven’t checked yet, but I hope you did submit it to my contest. :0)
Thanks @simplymike. I did submit it to the contest. Aint afraid to say I'm trying to power up a bit because I'm really tired of having a penny vote exhausted so quickly and bandwidth issues. And I'm not trying to buy more Steem on binance and pull it in. I promised myself I would see where my initial $100 went by the end of the year and decide after that. Driving me insane though hahaha... ughhh... Lucky right now I'm borrowing some delegated SP but it won't last. So I'm entering, and hopefully, have time to enter others.
Entering contests is a good way to earn some more Steem and power up. I’m one of the fortunate ones who have been able to use the profits I made in crypto to buy myself some Steem, so I never had to deal with bandwidth issues.
I just found myself complaining my upvote was ‘only’ worth $0.14. The moment I wrote down that sentence, I realized I had nothing to complain about, so I ‘punished’ myself for wining by delegating some SP to a good cause :0)
Haha.. that's a good way to level cleanse the karma haha
Btw, I’m not sure how good you are in ‘selling yourself’, lol, but I just came across a delegation contest. It’s only for a week, but it might be worth a try:
