I support what you say, and you have very good judgment when you talk about it being better to take care of your fans than the criticism of other people.

But you have to remember that Steemit works in a way, and a lot of what is going for your post as rewards, somehow you are taking it away from others who also deserve it.

I propose something, which will surely help you more in the long term than this you are doing, which will surely make you win enemies forever in Steemit.

Invest a little less money in your posts, and let your fans and curatorship projects support you.

You could invest that money in STEEM POWER, or somehow create a community and support other creators, win the fans really, not doing this, it's your decision, but I assure you that doing what you are doing now it will not help in the long term.

Blessings.
