its certainly true
Hive peeps do seem to be a little diehard on the platform :-)

im going to say..... that even though my vote is small... it IS enough that a vote from my account registers a cent or 2. and as a newbie... any votes that are not dust votes, that give a dollar amount as they pop up, give a little "ohhhhhh" huzzah....

So the best thing i feel i can do (other than post) is to curate. Even as a smaller fry it still helps. I do try and go and read a few posts every day from smaller accounts. (i try and actually read and evaluate the posts from people i don't read often)... but gosh thats hard right!
