I apologize for how that may have come across. It was never my intention to insinuate that you were ignoring my post. I was simply meaning I didn't get a response.

I'm sorry I didn't answer you in time. I usually leave comments that require time to respond to later. But then force majeure events occurred, after which there were many power outages.

I believe this may be a major issue that was, of course, made worse by the chain's issues after the split. Subjective viewpoints, while not the most popular among everyone, can help improve the overall situation. A fresh set of eyes can often see things that the experienced user misses.

Another problem you pointed out is the adequate evaluation of the content. It is often the case that a short blog post gets more support than a long in-depth article. This is partly due to subjective factors. People here get to know each other and even become friends, although they have never seen each other. People subscribe to the authors they read most often. It is their posts that they vote for, while a thorough article by an unknown author may go unnoticed.

That's quite the accomplishment to be proud of. I hope my experience is somewhere near yours in three years.

Over time, you have an ever-increasing amount of STEEM based on your activity. The most striking example is my personal one. I invested 0 and three years later my account is worth more than $10,000. With investments, everything would be even better.

Good to formally chat with you; stay safe, my friend.
