Anarchist Star Trek indeed lol. So far I am just using the basic hive.blog interface and following everybody who seems interesting. I am following a few communities and tried a few community projects, like Splinterlands has a weekly contest to post about a card of the week so I did one of those. It seems like there are a lot of contests and community themed posts that can be a good start to get some votes and meet people.
Honestly there are so many discords that sometimes I kinda avoid them now, I'm only in the Splinterlands channel for now. If you have any recommendations of other servers to join I'll definitely jump in.
Overall it seems like things make sense, thanks for the response. Seems like over time I will be able to integrate more of my creative activities into the blockchain world. I'll keep exploring the Hive :-)
