Thanks, @acidyo for this enlightening post. I'm a newbie here and just this week, I tried to post every other day (because I have a target), and also I'm on vacation right now, I have plenty of time to write but somehow it gets me exhausted.
On some of my previous posts, I got several upvotes (thanks to the curators) which made me happy but it's the comment that made me feel that I am an effective writer. Yes an upvote is a bonus,it's how I earned, but the comments, the peoples reaction and engagement to my post is fulfilling. 😊
