I like that term you used, power user :)

It's true.  Out of the currently ~600 posts or so a day and ~1000 daily users, only a few of us post A LOT and comment a lot and are very regular / constant / consistent daily users and we do not get much support.  

Some of us work very hard on a lot of our content on here, and are not bloggers per se, or don't have a ton of online skills and many people as such leave, who invest a lot here, because there is not enough support.

"I'm pretty free tonight so I'm kinda reflecting on stuff that's been happening on the platform. Free free to add:-"

#6.  The price of STEEM is a downer...(.10 - .11 cents)  Lets get that out of the way.  I don't think anyone can say that STEEM or Steemit is FINISHED.  If the weak hands fold and leave, so be it!  A new and improved Whale, Dolphin, and Minnow will gladly buy them out while the price is low.  So I don't look at it as being a BAD thing.  More of GOOD thing.  Eventually while we stay positive and stay strong which will allow the price to rise again, THEY WILL  BE BACK!!!

That one-panel comic you mentioned might be the one I posted this morning.  It seems to have been received well.  I know some people don't see the humor in it, but if a few people get a chuckle then I've brightened their day just a bit.  I'm not offended if you didn't care for it.

I think I would consider you a mini-whale! I agree with a lot of your perspective and I hope that the community will come together and work towards a common goal!

''Better to identify power users and support them''

Well thats me! ( i am joking i am joking or maybe not? :P )
anyway great post with strong points!

The Steemit engine must be content creation and regarding  money, this is a long run (years). Let's hope this platform will get the needed traction in the future so we can all be amazed about our account, but until then it's up to us to keep it going. You also resteemed and article yesterday, from @nigelmarkdias, very on point about making money right now.

Yes...you are mini whale...but valuable and rare kind of whale in steemit ocean. Just swim and give joy to other minnows and spread good spirit around steemit ocean. Nice !

Agreed in all points. 
Happy that I have my 1 Cent vote again and I will work on my Orca-status and then mini-whale too, for sure ;-)
Even if the price will go much lower I belive in Steem and in Steemit.
Thank you for your really good work.

I've certainly enjoyed connecting with you, Kevin. :)

I'm happy to vote on childrens colouring pages- I'm a little disappointed that I missed that post.

i like the reflection, will also do one soon when i completed my second real steemit month! Thanks for being a guide @kevinwong

Thanks for sharing your thoughts here, Kevin. So much has happened in just 8 months. I'm optimistic about the next 8. I agree that the wallet UI needs to be more steem friendly. It would be very interesting to see some sort of value scale be a part of that, or maybe a graph showing your own steem power growth over time. A little bit of positive analytics here could go a long way in terms of encouraging users to hold on a bit longer! Cheers to your mini-whale status!
