We won’t be applying for the curator program next month,
because we’re transitioning into a DAO system.

In the meantime, we’ve brought in a significant number of new users—
and many of them are still active, still experiencing Steemit for the first time.
On top of that, three KOLs have joined as well.
This isn’t just a statistic; it’s a real achievement.

And yet, the Steemit community seems strangely uninterested in these results.
Instead of recognizing achievements, it prefers to focus on criticism,
more comfortable with blame and trolling than with progress.
The old habit remains alive and well:
“It’s faster to chase away the critic than to solve the problem.”

So the question becomes unavoidable.
If results bring no recognition, only criticism,
is there really any reason to stay?
Or perhaps this place has always wanted silence instead of results.
