That's just the difficult thing about explaining Hive topics like these on chain. How are new users supposed to know that? That's why I already addressed the topic of witnesses at the virtell German-speaking MeetUp that I organise. And I like to remind Hivians about this topic as well. Everyone is free to choose, but they should know what they're doing.
You could also write an explaining-Post or hold a competition where people write about it, that way the topic will become more visible.
Unfortunetly i don't have time to organise a competitioan at the moment, I need to focus on my wifes recovery and cataract surgery this week . But maybe if that all went well i will start something like that .
Oh, that sounds serious. Best wishes for your wife's recovery.
thank you , we will see how it goes it took four and half hours , the other eye will be done in Januarie so she can start the new year with a new look ..
