Yes and no. There are tags but everything moves so fast here it tends to only last so long. Most of the time it’s a community driven tag. For instance I live in eastcost of USA so I could use eastcoaststeem
It used to be minnowsunite for the minnows. Now looking at its trending kind of not but it still kind of of is…
There is also a group that curtails whalepower and you do see some lower reputation people gaining some nice votes. I forget if you have to sign up or not. I know for a while a guy running it was asking people to check in weekly with him. I don’t recall who it was thought that was running it.
Other times there just a huge difference between the word having an S on the end or not.
Then you have challenges like sevendaybnwchallenge where if you enter them you can get some traffic and some posts do get nice upvotes
If you write poetry you could use something like onehumanbasket
It takes a lot of time trying find them. I’m not in an active community these days so I don’t have the best of answers for something like that.
Any good tag will always be overtake by people who get large upvotes. It’s just how it is. some people also just love having their massive blog crushing everyone else in that tag.
For not being involved in the community - you know a lot! What a complex, layered world Steemit is. One of these days I'll go hangout in discord...just one more way to get overwhelmed lol ...
Oh they love to meme in the discords lol. Most of them are really laid back and playful. It's a good smashing time depending on where you go!
Be warned you might spend all day there depending on who is active in them hehe. People have been known to stop blogging and spending all day in them.
Some of them even have weekly hangouts with rewards or even an online DJ/talk show.
This is my biggest fear lol. I already am falling back into my old ways of procrastinating on Steemit - if I get involved in Discord...I'm done.
CPS will probably take my baby away when she's born - was it drugs? the authorities will ask. No, No, it was Steemit and discord chat :-P (Kidding. sick sense of humor I have lol)
But not kidding about my serious need for time management skills ! Once I get those improved, then maybe I'll allow myself a trip to discord...one day a week. for a set amount of time haha
In case you didn’t see it I decided to elaborate my thoughts out further and in a more detailed manner. I made some time for it since you have not been only one. I felt more details were needed that our discussions might have missed out on. Resteem or not Resteem
Nice ! I'm leaving a comment here so I can find the link. About to go on a road trip for a couple days, and not even dressed yet (I mean, not dressed in road ready clothes, though I do have clothes on lol). I can't read it now - else the BF may or may not strangle me for dilly dallying....
Talk soon ! :-)
Try and schedule a block of time to get writing done.
Usually 30 minutes after I wake up for about 1-2 hours IF I got a good night’s sleep is my prime writing time.
As far as CPS well there are support groups here that hate them hehe.
So many things in our eco-system.
