This passage is inspiring:

those who are open and authentic as well as consistent are much more likely to get noticed and rewarded for their content...

I do hope so. glad to find some confirmations from others about it.

why it is so important to really understand what this platform is, how it works today and what it could become in the future...

very true! it is a common sense: to figure out first what it is one is getting oneself into. before trying to make any decisions and course of actions.

especially about personal plans. Platform will go on with or without each particular person. the question is: where and how one will be, in relation to it.
