Just getting started? If you are like me, it was not obvious how to make your first post. Don't be stumped by the different tabs "Blog" and "Posts" (and no blasted button or field with those labels).
and add a tag "test".No worries! Just click "Submit a Story" on the upper right hand of your screen. You must enter a title, body, and tags. Try a simple intro, e.g., https://steemit.com/test/@chinesejapanese/hello-world
To see what other people in your shoes have posted, try this tag:
https://steemit.com/trending/introduceyourself
PostScript:
There is no "About Me" type of page - as far as I can tell - the type with background info like occupation, education, hobbies. So no need to waste time looking to start there.
How to Figure Out Whom You are Following, and Who is Following You.
Go to your "profile" page. This is located at:
https://steemit.com/@username
or in my case:
https://steemit.com/chinesejapanese
At the top of the page - below your username - you will see a number of "followers" and a number "following." Clicking on the word will show you a list.
Or for a direct link you can append "followers" or "followed" to the URL of your profile page. For example, in my case:
https://steemit.com/chinesejapanese/followed
