Before it was a closed BETA and password protected but that's gone now:
Go check out: https://beta.steemit.com and start or join a community!
Just be aware that whatever you post in a community will become a blog post on steemit.com (for now).
For example, I just made a post in my BBQ community:
Steemit.com (it appears as a blogpost) https://steemit.com/@exyle.test
Beta Steemit.com (It does not appear under my blog) https://beta.steemit.com/@exyle.test
Because of this, I expect a lot of extra 'short' blog posts appearing on steemit.com now that people can try out communities on the Beta site.
Just make sure you are aware of this and don't judge posts to harshly while people find their way with communities.
Have fun with the BETA!

@exyle so many questions! If we put the correct #hive-160867 tag on main blog posts from our SteemPress linked blog, will they appear in the community? Does that tag have to be the first one?

Communities should increase engagement on Steemit a lot. I can't wait for it to go live.
I believe ultimately developers and investors will want to go to the place where the 'real' people are. They are on Steem. Combine that with a STEEM token that will be much harder to earn moving forward and you have powder keg city waiting to happen.
And in the meantime, just have fun. It's what I do.

I was at SF and have been reading up about communities. Maybe I'm just really slow and can't get my head around a few things.
I guess if you're in a community, its going to be easier to link up with like minded people whom you may not be following and read posts that interest you. But posting in coummunties, and not on the wider Steem blockchain surely would restrict your potential payout? Or am I missing something?

I will probably hold off until they have things fully running. It is surprising that people are not more understanding about different content showing up on your feed. They can get really bent out of shape sometimes though! You might even lose a follower or two :) It is going to be pretty awesome when things are rolled out completely.

Historically, many steemians have posted/commented that Steemit is competition for Facebook. I personally believe it is much more suited to be competition for Reddit.

This is one of the areas Steemit Inc really really needs to work on @steemitblog should have made an announcement. Your post is 23 hours old as I post this, yet still no post almost a full day later from @steemitblog.
They have over the course of the last six months pinned post of little use to the average person, for as much as they have been talking about and pinning high hopes on, you would think there would have been some sort of announcement that the SMT communities pages are now enabled. Or did they only send the we are live post out on their facebook and twitter accounts and ignore the steemit users?
I know there are a lot of other front ends, I started on steemit, and that is what I still use for the majority of my activity on the steem block chain. Communications from steemit inc via their @steemitblog account is still seriously lacking. thank you for the heads up.

The closed beta was good for that,now the gates are open I still feel they should have made an announcement. Communities, and SMT's have been a big part of the push and build in 2019, you would think they would want to let people know it is now available for all to test, not just a few.

I am hoping someone will come out with a how to guide soon. I joined a few communities, and will take some time soon to delve more into them and learn what I can from a user point of view. We are expecting a new weather system this weekend, so will have time to play and look around it then.

Yes sunrise is just after 9 AM, and sunset today just after 4 PM. I think our shortest day is about 5 and a half hours of official daylight, but I am not sure.
Just looked it up, on 12-21-2019 sunrise 10:11 AM and sunset 3:56 PM. so I guess close to 6 hours.

One quick question @exyle
Can one post be part of few different communities? Or just one and only one?
And also if I subscribe then to some community and new publication will be posted, then how VISIBLE is this post on my feed? I mean - will I be at least notified?
Just wondering how real visibility will increase.
Yours
Piotr
