It seems to me that I witnessed the same Discord discussion. When I have nothing kind to say, I prefer to pass by so as not to waste my time. I agree with your point of view once again, there are no shortcuts to get far but a lot of effort and dedication.
Something that I really like about Hive is that the results take time to appreciate and that makes it easier for cheaters or lazy people to be discovered soon or they are the ones who get tired or bored. 😁
