Hello friends.
I also want to share my experience of my first days in SteemIT for all of you in this community.
And wow ... what kind of community I met here.
When a few days ago, by accident, I came across a commentary on facebook that SteemIT is a place where extra income can be made and I, like any normal, technically literate person, have decided to see what it is about.
Once I've made an account and looking at the platform, I confess I have remained with mixed feelings. Everything seemed to me slightly rustic and dysfunctional. But I said, so and so I've gotten here I'll try to see what happens.
As a person who likes many and varied themes, I had been wondering long time for what to write.
I suppose you all went through that moment.
“The beginning”
...how and from where to start.
Anyway ...
I chose a topic and published three articles interesting for me on the topic "Mysteries and Science" in the next 24 hours.
And yes ... as you are rightly supposed the result was horrifying to me - new account, low reputation... my articles was literally visible to less than 10 people in total.
At then "miracle" happened ... the community here started to support me.
Yes.... the upvotes didn't really bring me money on my posts, because most of you have a small steem power yet, but the thanks in the comments, resteeming in their feeds, the followers who came, gave me the strength and the desire to continue.
Every day I meet more and more valuable and intelligent people here, people with similar interests like me, no matter what part of the planet they are.
People have built a whole community based on kindness, understanding, support and mutual respect ... things that I think we are increasingly losing in the real world.
That's why I chose a platform ... this is a utopia for me in which I want to spend my time.
Thank you for being here

Welcome to Steemit.

I hope so... that's why i decided to spent my time here
Still having mixed feelings on the whole thing. I do like the platform and look forward to it's evolution. And yet still am disappointed with it as a whole from my experience.
So many beggars and liars ("I upvote you and follow, follow me" but they didn't upvote anything, etc.). So much meaningless content, and even content without substance but just parroting something or someone else, gaining value and profit. So much meaningful content, original and personal in nature, being buried and ignored.
IDK. As a social site it's amazing. But as a source of profit it seems slanted to favor those investing real money into it (& the bots bots bots sure seem to be pulling in big cash for their creators as well, while real humans sharing get ignored).
Really hoped that within 6 months to a year I could earn enough to get a good desktop PC to create gifs, memes, videos, etc. to share on. Yet realizing the only way for that to happen is to invest real fiat currency (enough to buy a decent desktop PC) into the system. And even then, there are no guarantees the masses would find my content original and interesting enough to upvote and resteem.
I know the problem is with me, but that doesn't mean there are no problems in the system.

Be sure, the problem is not with you! Many of us think about this stuff . Anyway it's better to face the problems, warn about them and find solutions or at least have adequate expectations. I really hope the platform evolves...I'm new here so I gave myself like about 1 month to just read and learn about the community, before I start with posts ...
I love to share a stories... Thats why with risk nobody to read them I post them anyway :)
Good luck to you too
