"I slowly muted all of my friends’ newsfeeds. I started cleaning up my friend list and it wasn’t late until less than a dozen made it.

(sorry, I still haven't learnt how to do that blue quotation thing)
just use the > before the quote, no space on a new line.

It will take some time for people to migrate over here. The biggest barrier I have found so far is the crypto thingy. Most people are scared of bitcoin and know nothing about it. If Steemit finds a way to shapeshift normal currencies from Steem Dollars then the game changes.
Thanks! Especially if you are from small town South Africa. :D
