What you said is true, @shadowspub. I've been on this platform for less than a month now and I'm pretty sure the amount of Steem is pretty low when I joined.
But that doesn't stop me from signing up in the first place. I'm trying to find a great place to write and I did not regret my decision on joining SteemIt.
This is by far, is the best community I've ever had. The people here are always helpful and Steemit is not dying because of the strong souls like @crypto.piotr and you. Steemit will not be empty as long as there are brains and hands that are willing to write amazing contents.
I'm a writer and I want to write here. That's why I'm staying. Not mainly for the money but because of the community here. Keep Steeming.
Much love and respect to all of you.
thanks for stopping by @maryclare ... great to see another writer focusing on writing. I agree on the quality of community both on the platform and on Discord. Are you using Discord yet? There is a writers group on there called @thewritersblock that you may enjoy connecting with. They are currently doing some online workshops where we can practice writing skills. A new frontend is coming from them and their publishing house Steemhouse Publishing is getting ready to release it's first novel.

@shadowspub thank you for this info. I've been on Discord but I only joined 1 group because I am not aware of the others yet. I'm actually trying to find a group for writers. Glad you mentioned this. I'll check this out for sure. Thanks once again.

Hi @maryclare
I've exactly same impression. I tried being active on FB or youtube and I encountered so much hate. Which I do not see here at all. Love this community.
It's very kind that you mentioned my name. Appreciate.
I feel like Im blushing already :)
Have a great weekend ahead,
Yours
Piotr
that stark difference between the haters on other social media and the way interactions happen here on the Steem has been noted by a lot of folks. Really interesting how it has developed.
I wonder what's the reason behind it @shadowspub
I think the fact that bariers of entering Steemit are so high (you need know a bit about blockchain and opening account is not easy) are putting idiots away.
Plus the fact that it's easy to "destroy" spammers is also helping.
Yours,Piotr
@shadowspub, @crypto.piotr I think one of the main reasons why this community is filled with love is also because, from the moment you join in, you already feel accepted. The introduceyourself tag is really a game changer.
I mean the people who will teach you everything about Steem as a newbie can be anyone even though those who are already on the higher levels. For me, people doesn't really care about their levels here. The amount of compassion and respect from everyone is what makes this community have a positive vibe. And it's always amazing to give back what you've received.
