I'm glad to hear that! However, "being realistic" doesn't mean that you can have a lot of luck here, too. It's still a game. You never know who's going to be online when you publish an article. You may be lucky having a bunch of whales being around in that exact moment when your content is showing up, and you may be extra lucky suiting their taste.

It's always a good strategy to think about target groups here:
The majority of users are male, have a high affinity for technological stuff and are extremely open to anything that touches the area of decentralization, freedom and self-government.

Every piece of content that supplies these needs has a good chance to succeed...
Good luck :)
