RE: Hello my fellow Steemians, I am The Curator.
Exactly dude, mental! I guess they gain Steem power, and feel popular, but it's total bullshit to put out an article telling others that's how it's done. Just trying to justify their own impatience!
Yep, I genuinely feel like if I keep putting effort in I'll get there. I know recently I've got very little chance of a curie upvote until the 7/8 day period passes but I don't want to just write them on the hopes of a curie vote. Good content always has a place! Speaking of I need to go catch up with your training!!

Um, yeah, about that... I'm writing a post about this today, but the guidelines changed on Sunday... and so now anyone who has ever got the curie vote is ineligible. So ah, guess that solves that dilemma.
Seriously? Ah man that's gutting, it was about the only way for people like me to get articles to the masses! What a shame! Surely it should always just be about the quality of the post?
I know.. me too. I was saving up posts to unleash when I had some time to make them The Best Things Ever and totally missed my window. Now my only option is convincing real people to like me. Eurgh.
The thing was that the same people were getting curie votes every 2nd week (which makes sense since they knew how to create great posts) but that doesn't really help the retention of brand newies who are getting $0.03 for amazing posts.
Good thing you've got @photofeed on your side now!
Haha when you put it like that it sounds bad, but it's hellatricky getting those follows without a little help!
I guess I see it, but I still think just curating good content has to come first, otherwise everyone just flounders in the middleground.
Great to learn about Photofeed, just added their tag, would be great to still have some way of getting exposure!
Yeah, I totally get you, I'm in the exact same position... kinda doing okayish, but still could use say, 3000 more followers...
There's still a few other curation systems out there... I think @ocd is the next biggest one, and @qurator is another.
Haha I'd be happy to just hit 1000! At least there's still hope!
