Welcome to hive! I’m glad that you’re on here with us, it’s a wonderful place full of lots of great people!
I am really glad that @lyubo19 has helped more people from Bulgaria join Hive! It's really great that you are on here with us. Your life sounds like it's been full of really cool things and experiences you can share. There are lots of different people from all around the world on here so you will definitely find lots to get into. My best recommendation for you is to comment on posts way more than you actually post. Go into communities, talk to people and get yourself out there. If you can do that consistently, you will have a great start off here. Look forward to seeing you around and what you come up with!
We’ve got a beginner zone, so-to-speak that has lots of important information you can learn from. I would recommend you check it out to learn some stuff about the place, lots of great information is posted there.

One of the things I wanted to do is give you a piece of advice that could make this place awesome for you! Talking with some of the people who have been here for a while, we remember one of the best things we did was find other people’s posts through others or go looking and start commenting meaningful things. If you drop small phrases it won’t get you much attention but if you look at a persons post and leave a great comment, a lot of times they will appreciate it and talk with you. If you continue to do this you will develop a friendship with them and will gain followers and grow your account. This is not an easy and fast process. It takes time but the more effort you put in the more you can be rewarded, with limitations of course.
I just say this in hopes you go out there and really connect with people and grow your account. The more we all do this, the more people will come here to take advantage of such a great place.
With commenting and posting, we consume what’s called ‘resource credits’ and in the beginning you don’t have a lot, you have to earn more. If you want to consistently comment and post, the website https://giftgiver.site/ does 10 day delegations for you to increase your credits to comment or post. Give it a try if you need some! Please feel free to ask me about this if you are confused!
There’s also a great article that can answer a lot of the questions you may have. Please visit it at:

Thanks for sharing this information with us, it's really helpful for newcomers like me.
I totally agree that getting involved in the community at first is really important for understanding the platform and making relationships with people. The more you show yourself out there the faster people will recognize you.
Commenting is really important and I just realized that. And the good thing is when using Ecency you get points for everything, which can help you promote and boost your content to even more people.
Thank you @cmplxty for your good words and advices! I hope that I can fit in that community fast and to be good member. Chain from people all around the world so let's started.
