Interesting. I will check it out. 

Yes the struggle is real, my friend. I go back to managing expectations.  I am not sure too many people that sign up are managing their expectations properly. Steemit is much like other social media type sites that pay. For example Steemit is very much like YouTube. Can you make money, sure. Some folks make A LOT of money...but not everyone does. I know I sound like a broken record, but I think it is crucial to just be able to stay here long term: Post or do what you enjoy. Get those expectations of easy money right out of your head. Post what you enjoy and make a few bucks along the way...no stress.
