So true! I forget it's in Beta still :)
I love that you said 1 out of 20 I feel like thats how it goes with me. I've tried my hardest to detect patterns but I've been unsuccessful. It's like a lottery.
Thats how I feel too. I'll put as much energy in Steemit as it's worth it.
It really is a lottery. I see so many great posts by others that didn't get support from people with SP. They go nowhere. That's why spreading your eggs in different baskets is key imo.
