Hey! I totally agree that it's a nice distraction. Yet, lately it has distracted me too much from other things and people that are important to me. Also I disagree with a lot of trends here on steemit such als self-voting and vote-buying. The structure of the community has considerably changed, I have the sensation that the social aspect is not very important anymore, and everybody tries to get as much money out as possible. I enjoyed the times when real knowledge was transfered, when profound conversations were made and when the content itself was celebrated. Now all that is secondary, and actually all that is the reason why I started blogging here. I'm not here for money, I'm only here for the social interaction and inspiration. Now when you publish a piece of content and half of the replies come from bots it's not surprising that the level of communication is going down. I was concerned about that and even wrote about it here, but since nothing happens it changed to indifferent.
So I'm spending my time somewhere else now :-)
Catch up whenever you want. Big hugs :-*
