"What would happen if everyone did this?"

Wow, from a global perspective, I think this would be very, very bad. Hive's vision would be lost. It would no longer make sense to create quality posts, it would no longer make sense to build a community or strive to improve every day and achieve goals, and if it affects the Hive ecosystem, it would be even worse. I agree with you on many points. I also understand the point of getting noticed because it's very difficult at first. I'm in that process. Others obviously have more advantages and more opportunities thanks to this system that you don't agree with. And from the bottom of my heart, I thank you for thinking of those in Hive creating content and trying to grow on their own. As you say, the rewards aren't guaranteed, but that from time to time it's good to have their effort appreciated.

I think a balance should be found, and I advocate for not running out of ideas and being able to raise awareness with your power and your voice. In my country, they say "he who tires loses." There are many people at Hive who appreciate your efforts to encourage the proper use of our platform. Don't lose heart. Because "What if everyone did this?"
