RE: The Ones Who Count the Coins

Well, that's one way to look at it — and you're absolutely right. Life is constantly changing, evolving. I happened to read a few posts from seven years ago, and they had a completely different vibe — and dare I say, purpose. Most of the authors were talking about Steem prices, cryptocurrency, and things like that. There was little to no focus on freestyle blogging, on life, or on topics that are trending nowadays (albeit often crap, to be honest).

But yes — those topics do bring colour and diversity. I genuinely hope the platform pulls through this rather grim spell... and maybe, just maybe, people start putting real effort — and a little soul — back into their writing.

Having dealt with the previous type of writing, 😁 I think it will deal with the current one as well. I think it has a lot more soul right now than it did in the past (with cryptocurrencies, memes, jokes, etc.) and I think the platform is evolving in that regard for the better. But it is changing, with all the bad and good consequences that brings with it.
