@freezepeach - thank you for being a kind soul.
I really had NO idea that free speach was being thwarted here on Steemit.
I only started to get that feeling when no one was either voting on my articles, no one was following me anymore, & now someone just told me that when he upvoted my comment I got nothing.
Can you please explain to me how or why someone from Steemit would stop my account from thriving?
This explains a lot now that I'm beginning to learn that Steemit may be WORSE than FB.
At least with FB you know it's FB censoring you, but here it's actual people, not some EVIL CORP :(
