You're not getting hate from everyone. Surely you don't expect everyone to like you? I see your work on Twitter, and I engage your posts. I respect the work you do, however, as much as you feel you're contributing, some people may also not think the same.

Irrespective of these isolated events with you, Hive is still the best place for anyone interested in cryptocurrency to enter the market because they can literally join an ecosystem that enables them earn from their content for free, and there's no amount of downvotes that can take that away.

Just keep doing your thing and make them believers because all this works against your hive bags anyways.

Besides, upvotes is just one way to earn on hive remember? You can still earn from your stake/hive power, or even buy more hive power and pump the price of the token. In other blockchains, you usually have to invest a fair sum into buying stake before you can earn from inflation etc etc etc.
