With the re-addition of the edit functionality for the Leofinance long-form content, my work on SplinterGlossary could resume.

I lost the momentum in the meantime, so it would take a while to get back into the rhythm.

But before I do... I need some feedback to gather the community's impressions on this.

Splinterlands was and still is massive on Hive and in the crypto world too.

Despite being in a period of lower enthusiasm for the platform, I believe that will come back in the bull market.

I'd like to add here the final impressions of a top gamer like @edicted on Diablo IV, the last in the very popular series from Blizzard. In the end, he was disappointed and he ranted out as to why.

In Splinterlands, a big topic is bots. So, what happened in Diablo IV? I don't know if players started to use automated bots yet, but Blizzard surely transformed human players into bots to take the shorter route on leveling up, as edicted described. Yes, there were some rewards for the first 1000 accounts who reach level 100 in hardcore mode, but otherwise there are no real-value rewards involved and people still act as bots, grinding the same low levels that offer better compounded rewards at a low risk. Hmm, seems like something Splinterlands solved a while back? Or maybe farming low-level leagues is still going on, it is profitable, and I don't know about it.

Anyway, edicted sees companies like Blizzard as sticking to their old business model and apparently unable to innovate it. And he thinks they simply can't compete with Web3 games on the long run, something I agree with.

So, Splinterlands is many iterations ahead in this Web3 gaming world. At some point, things will align even more than they do now.

When @taskmaster4450 proposed the idea to have SplinterGlossary started on the same model as LeoGlossary and under its umbrella, enthusiasm was still very high for Splinterlands and it could have been a magnet to attract new eyeballs and search engine results to Leofinance. Even though SplinterGlossary is completely different from the overall theme of LeoGlossary, and, at the time, on Leofinance, we started it and it grew nicely.

While the enthusiasm on Splinterlands is not as high right now, I believe as we advance in the bull market, with a couple new iterations on features and products almost completed, things can be back up. But that's subjective and my opinion.

So, I guess what I'm asking you is: should I continue adding to and updating SplinterGlossary? Does it help Leofinance? Does it help Splinterlands players or potentially add new ones?
