@dkkarolien well done! Here is a fine example of a relatively new steemian that has all the right stuff! Engaging, clearly creative with a dash of the old tongue n cheek style I find refreshing.
I hope to see more of this delegation motivation gaining momentum. With no strings or expectations attached, and especially with the inevitability of the big bad HF21 on the horizon these offerings will be great for steem. I think the impact delegations will have for smaller accounts and the entire ecosystem has not been fully realised.
After 8 months I've accumulated less than 10 sp from my "curating" and this was helped by delegations, some of which I'm still grateful to have. However, with the opportunity to earn 50% the potential for accelerated growth in the lower and middle ranks is finally a reality. Most of the always powering up, organic, new class (post HF20) such as myself have accomplished what we have on the backs of engagement and manually curating content that speaks to us and inspires us to speak back.
I have voluntarily flung myself down the rabbit hole of steemecon and am on and off chain discussing all aspects of our ever evolving ecosystem day and night. I spend hours a day on discord in various communities or having dm's that are often mostly recreational and for the sake of levity but also always end up centered around enriching this little experiment we call steeming. Wouldn't it be great if we did more of that here?
I'm no cheerleader but I'm also not going to shit on something I see having great potential just because we're ALL experiencing growing pains. This is getting long winded so I'll close by saying I'm not one to ask for anything, but I wouldn't be upset if I had a bit more steem juice in my sippy cup either.
And more than any personal aspirations I'm happy to see this cut and dry very honest approach to doing what you can to improve all of our investments by delegating to active and engaged accounts.. Peace! And to the recipients spread the love!
@dkkarolien het te veel om te se! That’s why she runs out of resource credits and needs delegation!
But I feel you man there’s no incentive to curate I haven’t earned anything that’s helped me be more active by curating and with the onus on posting people just feel like they need to post regularly to earn which turns content to shit real quick!
I dipped into the market at 19 cents and don’t think I’ll do it again there isn’t much upside in investing in steem from a financial stand point! That’s why I rather invest in other alts
It’s kinda sad because this is by far the most fleshed our and used project of anything available!
Most of ETH is filled with shit dapps that aren’t going anywhere while other alts I like are all focusing on niche business cases and not for mass consumption like this

Yes it's the best of what's around, and I can't see many of the top 40 chains being around for long with little or very limited use cases. Steem at wherever it is now? Near 70 maybe is due to our spinning wheels and the external communities not really having an awareness of what's possible here, because well, neither do we lol. So funny I forgot to laugh, it's actually not amusing at all and it is sad. Having a social front end for the public to interact with us is a no brainer. We are walled off from the rest of the world for no reason. If the Normies like it and we can catch them with our honey they will create accounts. We also need mobile front ends that are committed to leading the way and serving as the bridge between the US and Them disconnect.
It's amazing the insides of some steemians taking a shit 10 times a day haven't dropped passed their turd cutter and into the bowl yet.
OK... I'm here and watching this conference... @skramatters and @chekohler
Boytjie van die Kaap.... So né?? 🤔 Nou praat die tannie te veel.. 😂 😂 😂 #funny you made me laugh at least.
@skramatters you're one of my staunchest supporters which I really appreciate as is the young one from my home time up top 🔝... I appreciate your compliment and just thought you both should know.. @galenkp and I have a history about banners since this morning early hence my beautiful creation to beg for sp..😂 Being me I just couldn't help myself and I truly hope he enjoys the gesture as much as the two of you.
Should I worry about the HF? 🤔 I'm not completely au fait with all the terms and what's about to happen on steemit. I just pray it doesn't disappear as I'm having way too much fun on here. 😕

Pretty please with a cherry on top don't fret about the fork or any of its details. Enough of us are over thinking this as is. Not knowing and not feeling any major changes will be the watermark of success. If this place is going to grow we need millions of people having too much fun to be bothered by boardroom and stakeholders luncheons...
Trust me I wish I didn't know anything but it's too late for me lol. And so cool you and the Jesse king are from the same place. No need to thank me for staunchy support I appreciate having someone to appreciate..

Someone’s surly putting her delegation to good use she’s all over the chain today in fact she’s off the chain
I wouldn’t say you have much to worry about with HF21, I’ve been through 2 already and they were both huge fuck ups and the site was down for ages and people left but some of us keep going
Really is just a personal choice

The way I see it is these other alts will all be combined eventually the best ideas will be absorbed into the chains that survive and there will be a consolidation eventually like it or not
When that happens we will have more developers moving over to build on steem and we as the guinea pigs will get a smorgasbord of options to choose from
As for the big shitters I don’t have much sympathy for them if you trying to earn from Steem you need to look at yourself and think maybe it’s time I add another income scream or do something with your life and not shit on steem because you trying to pay your bills

Consolidation seems inevitable. Nothing to not like about the potential from my vantage point.
I gotta get actifat off the floor and not "waist" the opportunity to exploit the get paid to post your cake and eat it too movement..
Token distribution will be weighted by steak and votatoes.
😂 😂 😂 Te veel om te sê... Probably the truth.. Island life makes me think and write and talk too much.. 😂
