I was absent from the platform for quite some time and I sporadically keep trying to come back. In recent weeks, I did so more frequently, but then I disconnected again. However, the truth is that whenever I can, I come here to browse. I always find pleasant surprises and interesting things. I think that your posts naturally create the need to comment, and it is certainly valuable that you take the time to respond to comments.
You said it yourself: $1 per comment would undoubtedly increase your number of followers and, in turn, the number of comments. It would perhaps be exhausting to respond to so many messages that would surely strive to be valuable, and the spontaneity of those original comments that are frequently left on your posts would be lost or diluted.
But like any experiment, there could also be other surprises 😜.
