I'm reading the discussions below the post and understand both sides, but I want to look at the situation more deeply, through the lens of real labor costs.
I can understand those who complain—rules are rules. But let's be honest: most of them just logged in, scribbled a few lines, closed the app, and went about their business. They didn't invest their time. Meanwhile, the authors who climbed to the top literally toiled for weeks and months, building their profile and devoting colossal amounts of personal resources and hours to it.
History has always been like this: those who achieve success through persistent, grueling work are few and far between. And they will always be judged and criticized by those who achieved nothing simply because they did too little. Envy and complaints are the lot of those left behind.
Brian Tracy's book, "The Science of Money," has a great insight into human nature: people always want to get more with as little effort as possible. Someone comes in and claims they deserve a high salary, but reality quickly sets everything in its place: people are paid not for their desires, but for their value, knowledge, and the volume of work they accomplish. The market always values real contribution. Some choose to simply complain about the system, while others toil day and night for results. To each their own.
