It's a meme that I created and took me quite some time to do + the idea. I am also on this platform for over a year now. I produce thoughtful content since the first day I signed up and in the beginning my articles took over 3-4 hours and got pennies on the dollar. I am not saying that this picture worths $100 but my early posts were surely well above pennies. I see it as a cumulative value over time.
Instead of complaining try to actually do the work for a while.
