I can totally share anything helpful, but in reality Rok Sivante is a far better candidate for sharing knowledge on this subject. I've had moderate success but his posts have been exceptional, he's not in TTFL (I don't think) but he is in crypto shit. I would maybe pose that question to him over there and transfer the results back here perhaps? He's just a far better nominee then myself in my opinion. But I'll gladly share what I've been doing which has been mostly curating and commenting. Just checking steemit a fair bit going down the hot/trending/new section looking for posts/authors that catch my eye. I drop the odd comment if I have something to say and if I put effort into that said comment I may upvote it as well. Depends I don't wanna damage my credibility by upvoting everything I post but if I believe there's value in what I've said I'll upvote my comment. I try and comment early on posts that are getting lots of attention so my comment is one that's seen and potentially voted on, I've had two comments get over 100$ so far, drew the attention of a whale which was nice. I've also connected with a few other Dolphins (I think I'm a dolphin.... Maybe... Maybe I'm not that high yet) and they've been upvoting my stuff from time to time helping me out. I think that's a big part is connections, but I also don't wanna upvote everything my "friends" on steemit do just because they're the ones doing it. I want the platform to evolve and grow, survive and thrive even. In order to do that people need to vote for more reasoning then just greed. That's why the steemit circle jerk has been going down lately, the whales upvote certain steem promoting posts and because they carry the most weight those posts are hitting the trending and hot topic pages every day. I'd prefer to see a more diverse range of topics, and I think as it grows and changes we will see a more natural style of social media as the wealth distribution widens.
