from my perspective, the problem is not do not have quality or be good, is that there are no whales in my language and in English community you have no one to vote for you because you get lost in many junk articles.
I have articles in English that are very good, but they were never paid well for this.
May I ask what your native language is?
Its good to have the confidence that a post we make is good, but like I said in this video we are not the judges. The community decides.
