Hmm you make a fair point I haven`t been here long enough to really have a say in this but I came over from youtube ( I still upload there too) and some users there would only do stuff there just to make quick cash. Or use tactics such as click bait etc. I am aware one can make $ on steemit and I like that neat feature but for me I post because I enjoy doing so and love sharing what I do with others to possibly enjoy. the $ is just a side bonus and I am in no rush to get a bunch as I am aware it takes time. So I post here with the mindset of just doing what I enjoy and hopefully others may enjoy said stuff along with me uh if that makes any sense heh.

I'm the same way ... I'm a youtube transplant too. I love the idea of making money but more so I want people to actually value my content.
Ah you are from youtube too? Wow I am shocked at just how many youtubers are over here is like ever since they did there recent changes to their partner program screwing mostly smaller channels I have been seeing many here. It makes me wonder just how many of us here are from youtube or use both youtube and here.
and yes that is the way to go about it I get most joy seeing people enjoying and having fun watching the videos I post I just love seeing nice comments from people when they leave them on my videos it brings a smile to my face everytime. What type of content do you mainly do in youtube? I run a rather small retro gaming channel I mainly specialize in showing gameplay of various different games and I am hoping to find growth with what I do here aswell. So I will be migrating a good chunk of what I had done on youtube to here. And later down the line start doing some videos just for this platform.
I'm gonna keep posting to youtube and dtube for a while, since my friends and family mostly use youtube despite my best efforts to get everyone over here. I'm a musician and I do a little weekly vlog series about trying to get a sustainable living as a musician.
Ah that is good to hear yeah it is best you keep uploading to youtube aswell because if you have a larger following there if possible you can mention steemit or leave links so that way you can make a portal for here from youtube to get a following and leave your youtube here for the same affect get people here to see your youtube etc. It is indeed hard tho to convince others to join here I have been trying too with a few friends of mine and boy is it tough. Oh you do music and vlogs!? That is great! ah I hope you keep going and I wish you luck wit your path of music!
You are doing great and you have the right mindset in my opinion. :-)
As long as you enjoy posting and write articles or comments with value and a strong opinion, gaining followers and growing a community will go smoothly. Yes it does take time but I already notice your writing efforts on my blog and I'm sure others will notice the same on theirs.
Keep Steeming my friend!
Ah thanks so much! that I shall do! keep on posting here! I am really loving it here everyone is just so kind here I have gotten so much warm welcomes and kind words from everyone here so far and I have only been here a short while. I feel much more better here starting out than I did on youtube when I began there it was pretty much in there and nothing else after so felt sorta all on my own there and not as encouraged but here? Wow is it different! And that makes for much more fun and enjoyment to be had! Whats more this site is still growing and changing since is still in beta there is something about watching the foundations of a site slowly form.
I am enjoying seeing different communities here grow and expand even the gaming portion of this site is ever so growing :D it
s all of it is nice. You keep posting too dont give up! you give great insight into crypto stuff I feel many new people like myself will benefit greatly from learning stuff from posts like this!
