I was a bit annoyed when I first joined steemit to find out that you have to use another platform to engage with everyone. After my stubbornness wore off and I gave discord a try it was one of the best decisions I have made. It is truly the easiest way to find different communities to be a part of and build relationships with other steemians.
Another community that I would like to shoutout is the @helpie community. As the name implies they are focused on helping fellow steemians grow on the platform. They are awesome!
I've never heard of helpie, but it sounds pretty cool...
Haha, indeed @helpie is very helpful!
LOL
I had the same initial reaction. I hate chat servers generally, but accepted that I simply had to use them to make the most of this opportunity.
I've only just started hearing about @helpie this past week, but now this is my 3rd time hearing of them. Will definitely take a closer look tomorrow. Thanks for the suggestion.
I was annoyed too with having to use alternative platforms to discuss stuff but once I found my groove in a few of the servers and found the ever wonderful team australia and PAL. I have never gone back.
