Thanks for your kind words @ana-maria!

I can completely relate to that sense of "lacking enthusiasm," because I was somewhat feeling that about Steem, as well... and that was before the whole Tron takeover/Hive split situation happened. It seemed like the entire community was just slowly falling to pieces, and making an effort was almost "to no purpose. " Here on Hive it feels better because it seems like many people now have a purpose to what they are doing.
