Hey @carlgnash

I don't know if you remember me, probably not; but I wrote a long time ago on Steemit as @herbertholmes (I have misplaced my key but I do hope to retrieve it)

I got back on Steemit because I now again have a computer and am in a different position in my life. I was exploring the comments on my old posts trying to reconnect with people I had connected with in the past.

I noticed the platform seemed surprisingly different at first. I have also noticed that many of my old friends seemed to go inactive around the months surrounding this last post of yours.

I doubt you will see this but as of 20 minutes ago I was curious what happened to Steemit and now after reading your posts and several similar ones, well I guess, this was the tip of the iceberg. If you do see this by any chance, I would love to hear about some alternative projects you have discovered. It has been a long time since I've even held a computer in my lap; needless to say I'm extremely out of the loop on these things.

Hope all is well, regardless of if you ever see this.
