I feel like I have been putting out decent quality stuff for the past year but I don't really feel like my rewards are reflecting that.  Heck my upvotes aren't even reflecting that.  If it wasn't for the STEEM I have delegated to different projects and the SBI shares I have, my posts would make practically nothing.  I am too invested now to quit and I still believe in STEEM.  I'm not daft enough to think that after HF21 I am suddenly going to be okay because people that relied on bid bots will take the time to manually curate my stuff though.  It drives me crazy, because I don't want to be salty about the whole thing, but the more I read about it, see comments about it, and think about it, it seems there is more upsides than downsides for the larger accounts and vice versa.
