Where Are They?

What has happened to the steemians here on steemit?. I went through my followers and noticed a fourth of them haven't posted in months, and one of my favorite quote poster @rohit hasn't been active, I hope he's doing well. Could this be due to the decline in bitcoin?, no sbd payments?, no real earnings in the bots?, the constant nick picking of downvoting?, or all of the above?, although I do know that a lot of people's just doing other things as mining, ptc, ptp, gaming, surveys and any other faucets where they can earn payments or coins. One thing I would like to understand is, since it's a known fact that we're in a somewhat "depression ", just a thought, why don't some of these WHALES that have bots refine the way people can earn, all of this -10 % and payouts of 15 and 20 % is hilarious, it will not hurt you all to make changes. Even when people bid on those bots, they're not making anything because in the end when payout come after 7 days, they lose out. All of these contests and resteeming don't carry anything in weight especially when you're just Upvoting 1% then turn around asking people to vote for you as a witness. We have all of these forums, platforms, and witness here telling us how to achieve, and whose on the blacklist, but what are y'all doing with y'all bots?. Yes, I am only speaking for myself, and I decided to express my feelings because when I see bots on there with $2.00 and below, why are they on steembottracker?, this is crazy. It's bad when you have to upvote your own post just to see some form of an amount on it.
