Think it is hard to be social when established "voting groups" or bots rule the platform. I see lots of people trying, but the majority drops out when they see low or no rise in power.
A good rule, or curtesy would be to try to vote on people that support your own posts.
Im just concerned that if you didn’t establish yourself early in steemit then there is no reason to come here now when crypto prices are crap and then the whales play favorites. Curtesy can only go so far in the survival of this platform. Can newbies even make it on here anymore?
It is though!
