Hello!!!

Woah. It has been a LONG LONG LONG time.
I completely missed everything that happened and now we're here.
I missed the community A LOT.
like a lot.

3 years ago, I got really burnt out from Steemit. I was spending all my free time writing and hanging out with the community and it all became too much. WAY TOO MUCH.
So I naturally had to focus on myself.

No idea if I am back for good. But it has been good to get back into crypto and would love to connect with people!

Hey Ashley ! WB !
I've also 'returned' recently. I still gotta get used to all the changes that have been made.
Nice to see some familiar faces also here and/or returning !

Hello!! Welcome back to you too. Yeah same here. Do you happen to know where everyone is hanging out? The steem chat used to be 🔥

Now that's a name&face I haven't seen in a while, hi.

Hey Acid!!!!
:) I know. It is has been so so so long.
You good?

I'm alright, I probably got burnt out around the same time as you but somehow kept doing shit in zombiemode. How have you been coping with the pandemic?

That's crazy. OCD still going strong I see?
Eugh, hard. I got super lonely even though I was still working at a place so I saw people twice a week. Got so lonely I started a podcast as an excuse to meet up with people. Hahaha
How about you?

The strongest :p
aww, yeah this pandemic been a real cockblock xD thought it wouldn't bother me much since I'm a nerd who stays inside all the time anyway but knowing that it's not my choice it still bothered me.

podcast huh? we got a dapp for that: https://app.aureal.one/ so get to it!

What's the situation over there? Do you have a curfew?
The curfew here is the thing that has me messed up the most.

Oooh, I will definitely look into it. I am still trying to find my way around here. :) Feels like the old steemit days aka the good days ;)

Don’t know you from before, but I’m here to welcome you back anyways.
Stick around, you may notice the 🍯 tastes similar yet different now.

Hiiii!!! :) yes, I am enjoying it! Didn't you make art for slothicorn? :)

I haven’t heard that name in forever, yes I did do that a few years back.

I know right? I remember! I was very much a part of the Slothicorn journey in the beginning hihi :) Nice to see you are still here!

hey old OCD mate. long time no see.
good to see you back :)

Heeeey!! It's so nice to 'see' a familiar face! :)

yep, same here. hope to see more of your posts :)

!ENGAGE 30

Yes! Getting back into writing :) Where is everyone hanging out? Is there a chat somewhere?

Thank you for your engagement on this post, you have recieved ENGAGE tokens.

Yes, you did miss a lot, but you're back in time to still catch plenty. Have you discovered tribes yet? When posting use tags that relate to tribes that relate to your topic of discussion and you'll get paid with the tokens of those tribes in addition to HBD/HP. Proof of Brain tribe is killing it now, but that's just one of many.

Did you ever engage with Steem Engine? Hive Engine is better than ever. There are a lot of opportunities there to find projects to dabble in.

There are also some really cool experiments in tokenomics happening here, now, and Leo Finance is doing ground breaking, revolutionary work in the DeFi space. There's also a lot of cool projects to support in the DHF (Decentralized Hive Fund), too many to pick a place to start naming them.

Welcome back! I hope to see you around!

Hey Sinistry,

Thanks for your comment.
Haven't discovered Tribes, Steem Engine or DHF so super grateful for you to mention them. Will definitely check it all out :)

Nice to have someone point me in the right direction! Have a good day!

Omg! I don't know if you're into the finance/defi side of things, but that's a space that's really starting to shine and stand out here. https://leofinance.io/ has recently tipped a toe onto the national stage with some of the stuff they've been rolling out and https://hive-engine.com/ is the native side chain where we can trade for free.

Regarding the tribes those tokens represent, I highly encourage you to prioritize looking into proof of brain, https://proofofbrain.io/. Your following and a quick glance through some of your posts lead me to believe you'll do well and be appreciated there. I use peakd.com for my primary hub and just tag to whatever tribe is relevant to my topic. I don't know if there is a difference in payout for using a specific interface, but I do believe the first tag you use matters..., but don't really know why. Anyway, I'll leave you to explore. Toodles!

Yeah I already dipped my toes into leofinance and cubdefi (which felt like walking into a room blindly haha) but definitely will have to understand it more.
And thanks for showing me proofofbrain!! I get what you say, it makes sense for me to write for the tribe.
God, you've really helped me understand it all better. So much has changed since THAT THING I WILL NOT NAME

Lol! I love that we all treat it Luke “The Dark One”. I refer to that time as The Forkening. I don’t think it’s caught on, but I giggle every time I get to type it. 😁
