My thoughts exactly!

I fear HF21 will damage actifit and kill off steemit.

My impression is that HF21 will benifet the whales. Also that the updates to the downvote will cause harm to smaller users. I've had a mass downvote before from a whale, and there was nothing that I could do. It didnt seem fair to me that one person could inflict such harm on another's account without just cause.

I will see how Hf21 plays out but I think that I will move back over to Minds.com and linkeding. Both of which I have far greater user engagement. My minds account is about the same age as my Steem one, I've had just under 600,000 views there, and thousands of followers. Linkedin, I've got almost 7,000 connections and followers, again with many views.

In the Past, I've been paid to write articles for magazines but here, I struggle. For me, it wasnt about money but more about engaging in a new and diverse community. At first Steem seemed about user interaction, now it seems like its all about the money.

So, I'll see how HF21 goes but .... I think my time here is coming to an end.
