No one that invests as much time in a platform as users do on steemit, has invested in steemit. When the hardfork cut function by a significant amount, it was emotional. A lot of those that hit this hardfork, left. The ones that stayed on steemit, were by definition; emotionally involved, by this stressor.

So those that remain, are emotionally involved, by the decision to stay, and to continue to contribute here. This also is a decision to invest of yourself in steemit. Since the decision has been made to invest time, and give of oneself to this platform those that have stayed are emotionally invested in this platform.

The one who are not, either left entirely (I lost friends) or they only open steemit once in a great while (no investment).

We are all inmates in this asylum...and are emotionally invested; but under treatment, LOL!

But steemit used to be a lot more fun, before it "matured"! So if you are NOT emotionally invested, why are you still here?
