RE: On the Importance of "Being Bothered"
I had been posting much the same content on FB but they were blocking people seeing my posts because they thought I was a Business. Someone told me about Steemit and I decided to change over. The only difference is people can't comment unless they have a HIVE account. But I have a lot of people who read the post each day that don't have an account.
The bonus was I do earn something and it's slowly built over nearly 7 years. If it ever goes skyhigh like it did a few years back, it will truly be worth something. But that's not why I post...
I post as a sort of diary or memory because mine is ripened by Lyme disease. Each post is first written in a word.doc and saved in files. So I can access them relatively easily. And mostly that's why I post. It's decidedly worth the effort.
For me, it's very much worth the effort; I just seem to relate a lot better to people on Hive than on legacy social media.
I still use Facebook, X, Insta and those, but it's only for business purposes — I manage a couple of business pages, and it's the best way to just put one's name in front of a LOT of people.
