One year? It feels like I've known you longer. Congrats for being here and not giving up.
I got my first downvote on a post I posted to a wrong community and that almost killed my morale to post in the community again. They gave so much warnings to me and made me scared of posting my next write up but I overcome it and continued... It's still paying off up till.
This reminds me of when I asked a question in one hive Discord group. They all attacked me that I was fishing for votes and I was so confused, I just wanted to share my shit. Lol.
It was a simple and naive question about what channel to promote post or something like that. I was a newbie and didn't understand certain things. Till today I rarely use Discord because of how unwelcoming they were in that channel.
If these gatekeepers had attacked me like that on the hive community itself, my morale would have been diminished and I sure as hell won't be here today.
Wow that happened? It would have been not cool for me either... But I met really good people there and I've been using my discord app since I started blogging, really helpful for me.
Thanks sis, you've been part of my journey 🤗🥰
