I totally get that. Your thrifting and recycling posts were seriously high quality content, but if they make less than a buck or two, it’s not really worth the hours it takes to put together. Besides your shorter/comedy posts seem to be doing really well and getting a lot of engagement! Why not then? It’s a fun way to interact with people here.
I think we are all on a journey to find our little niche in this steemit world. It just takes lots of trial and error to see what works. :-)
