I agree that some people can pull it off, I just think there are ways of "gaming the system" on Hive and I wouldn't want to see large swaths of people who are like:

"Well, I start my day with my daily reflections post, then I head over to the food tribe where I talk about my dinner from the night before, then I bang out a good book review in another tribe, followed by some photos of my daily walk. Then at night before I settle in I talk crypto in with the leo finance folks. As long as I add two photos and 700 words I can earn about $20-40 per post."

This does happen lol.

Putting your efforts into one (or maybe two) massively useful posts per day is likely the optimum.

Yeah I agree.

So where can one earn 0.10 per word doing freelance writing?
