Hello @fatgandalf,
I just had a look on your account and the first thing to do here on steemit is an introduction post. If you do a proper one with pictures and some information about yourself can built up trust and gain attention.
You are doing it completely right with commenting other peoples post. It is probably the best way to interact honestly with the community here. That's so far very special for this platform as there are people really caring about your content if you interact as well. So just leave the first part of your comment and then it is perfect! I would have looked to your account then anyway. ;)
Thank you for your honest feedback ! Actually, I am doing just one minute videos so far to keep it as short and as simple as possible. I will consider your words - but so far I am convinced to say that the most important information - without confusing anybody - are included. :)
