one thing that was very important back in the day and now seems kind of moot is "the heart". I guess i fit the creator category though i am not sure i am worthy :) but people like me who were crazy about steemit, steemit potential and had a lot of great idea and willingness to put in energy into pushing this community and site forward were silenced, imho, by the posts that made thousand upon thousand with nothing [ and i want to make a distinction between a one-hit wonder vs bot-=power accounts. the bot power accounts killed the spirit because no matter what i'd do, i'd earn SOME and sometimes i'd gotten lucky and earn SOME MORE. but those accounts always made bank no matter what stupidity they'd post or whatever.
I think that a lot of people said; fuck this and left: and whoever sasy " good riddance" we still have gavvet! well, enjoy this version of bot-powered "creators" for the rest....maybe the new fast power-down will get us a new reality.
i'm here.

As far as I have been lucky to get to know you, you are certainly the creator type!
And you are not the only one who got disenchated with that. I know some who left Steemit, just because of this.
I used to get frustrated myself but pushed through and kept posting. Had a lot of love-hate relationship with Steemit few months ago, then I started shifting towards "love". Steem Fest was the final moment to convince me towards "love". And that's because of all those "creators" I met there. I believe in "the creators" (no religious pun intended :-] )
thanks! and surely, getting to the "love" part requires to re-align a mindset with your actual wishes and reign in your frustrations. And one can do that, of course we did that as we are still here, but that's no easy task.
Steemit is just making it hard to love it and that's not such a successful strategy. Still, we'll see what the future holds!
