This is how I've been looking at the platform since I've joined. I think I've shared more of others articles, upvoted and commented on posts, than I have spent time into worrying about any financial gain here. Hey, I didn't gain anything from Facebook posting after all the years of hours spent there so what's it going to hurt to post without the expectation of reward? It will likely generate a better following, more honest original content from the users, and generally a more friendly, productive environment.
