I really appreciate this post because it speaks a lot going on in the blockchain. I am very sure most people think the same especially when someone follow you means that they appreciate what you do or contribute in the blockchain but when the upvotes are not coming from them it weighs one down.

At the same time it doesn't stop one from not socializing with others with the aspect of commenting on people's post and making yours as well, it is also a way of growing oneself in the platform. You cannot satisfy everybody because we are all entitled to our own opinion so the best thing is to keep the good work going and never give up in pursuing success.
