Dear @crypto.piotr - I immediately wanted to re-steem yur post (as always!) as it appeared in my feed. After reading your take I will not as I do not want your content to suggest "spam". sigh - the rare re-steem by myself is more of an act that makes me feel good in support but I can sadly see how, in fact, it is forcing unsolicited content on others. It appears tha Steemit is very heavily a marketing tool / ploy on others to pad pockets and the line is too blurred betwixt that and useful / joyful material.

• a certain conundrum; how to ever hope to aspire beyond minnow status without grinding out regurgitated content on a fairly high level
  
  Pee.S. - I have never received any notification of my name mention, I just recall reading in Steemit rules that by taking to time to type out a user's name (@+____) - they receive a "Steemit point" on some level or another toward "STEEM" or "SBD" or some such thing!
