Hard fork 19. - it doesn't mean that you'll get 19 forks to eat with.
Linear rewards doesn't mean that you can slack and that you'll reap rewards without hard work, effort and struggles.
Seriously speaking, Hard Fork 19 doesn't mean anything at all for people who doesn't understand it. In 1 day, Hard Fork 19 will be implemented and I won't try to explain the meaning of this, because, in all honesty, I'm truly not the right person to do it.
However, what we all can agree on, is that something will happen 1 day from now.
Some people are talking about it like it's the best thing that could ever happen and others are talking about it as it's some sort of plague..
Many people seems to be certain of the fact that everyone's rewards will be 4 times higher. When it comes to money. And others are certain of the fact that this change will basically kill peoples chances to reap rewards at all.
Many of them see this change as something that will benefit the already successful people on steemit only.. And others seems to believe that it will in fact help everyone.
I hate to say it, but I truly believe that this change will benefit the successful steemians the most, even though it's a change that aims to benefit the entire community. However, I also believe that they will come up with a better solution in case they notice that this change doesn't do what they hope it would. - Steemit is wonderful and I have the utmost respect to everyone involved in the changes.
So all in all, I am not worried. I actually don't care too much, or I try not to worry at least and I will let the change speak for itself. I will let time decide if it's good or bad.
I'm looking forward to see the results and I suggest that you do the same.
