Well yes, you have a point. I post on facebook and other communities like Amino. But if I'm getting paid for the work I put in (Consider a content writer), then it's a plus. I've seen many people getting 1000$ just for introducing themselves. Seeing that, I shall be discouraged, that I put 2-3 hours in a single poem and it barely gets noticed. But 'not giving up' is the perspective. As I said, I'll post 100, and even 1 get upvote or a cent, I'll be happy.

And the point of those who have whale friends. Well, I'm the unlucky one then.. What else can be done about it.. It is what it is.. And I'm not countering you in any point, rather placing my own thoughts about it. But it's definitely not a scam, only a few people have upper hand than most of the others.
