It was August 2017 I joined STEEMIT and the promises for a social media platform with a positive twist existed filled my head till late at night.
When I started posting it was magical, I was bursting with ideas every minute.
Then days turned to weeks and those to months and i began to notice a pattern.
The #minnows who were upcoming and should have been supported got nothing while the #whales 🐳 who were already known and established got all the votes.
So a ripple was in effect, the rich got richer and the poor? Well you know the rest.
Even minnows who should have been voting gor themselves kept using up their small votes on whales hoping to get "Curation rewards" so they won't leave empty handed.
NOT ALL WHALES 🐳 ON STEEMIT ARE ******* I'VE MET QUITE A FEW YOU HAVE BEEN GENEROUS AND KIND BACK HOME HERE IN NIGERIA AND ABROAD
Athough we can't all act the same but
by helping others grow and the community grows bigger isn't that helping yourself back indirectly?
HE HAS HELPED ME MORE THAN I COULD EVER THINK OF BY EMPOWERING ME WITH STEEM POWER. I'M SUPER GRATEFUL.
THANK YOU
