Not new to Steemit

941C9954-E617-414A-AD84-0B2548E4D35D.jpegMy first post here and I would like to re-introduce myself a bit. I’m an average middle aged guy living in Cleveland Ohio. I’m doing everything I can to keep up with the rapidly increasing technology that’s surrounds me. I say re-introduce, because I have had another Steemit account for a few months now. I didn’t post the ceremonial intro picture there, so I did it here. I don’t really have any specific area of interest. I like all 31 flavors! If you know what I mean. But I identify with do it yourselfers. Most of all I like the freeing ideas that decentralization has to offer. I believe in giving credit where credit is do. To that end, thanks to @scottcbussiness for his post “How To Create An Account Via BlockTrades“. You see, I had self imposed a feeling of a guest who was wearing out his welcome, on my first Steem account, @electricswine. I had initially intended to write about my homeautomation project. But I went off target a bit by posting things unrelated to that. I believe that anyone kind enough to follow me there shouldn’t have their feed hit with my unrelated posts. Thus the need to separate one from the other. So I learned from Scott’s post exactly how to do it. As for giving do credit, a big thank you shoutout to @davemcoy for his post “An Efficient Way To Buy Steem - 7 Simple Steps “. Dave gives the details of how to buy Steem to get more SP, or in my case, to purchase a second account. I’ve dabbled in crypto for nearly a year now, which made it a little easier for me to work through the first few steps of the buying process. I must add that with out Daves input, which I’m sure he’ll humbly acknowledge wouldn’t have been possible without the help of others, I could have never figured it out. But anyone who can follow directions can now do this. Thanks Dave.

Now that I’ve got this together, I plan to meticulously go through “followers” and “following” and make sure I’ve got everyone in the right spot.

Hello dydosoar

Hello dydosoar! Welcome to Steemit! Hope you'll like the community here. As a start, here are 5 tips that we believe will be helpful to you:

  1. Keep your passwords safe: Unlike conventional sites, Steemit has 4 types of passwords. Each offers varying degrees of access to your account, so know where and when to use each of them. Also, make sure to keep them all safe and secure.
  2. Get Steem rewards: When writing a post, you'll have the option to choose how to receive your reward: "Default 50%/50%" or "Power Up 100%". As of this moment, choosing Default 50%/50% is the better option. But this can change over time. Check our post to know more.
  3. Upvote wisely: When upvoting, wait at least 30 minutes after the post is published to maximize your curation reward. Also, make sure not to upvote too much too fast so as not to drain your voting power.
  4. Know your Steem, Steem Dollars and Steem Power: Steem and Steem Dollars are the 2 main currencies here. Convert and power up more Steem into Steem Power so you can have higher values on your upvotes.
  5. Have Fun and Enjoy!

have you tried greek yogurt?

Yes I have. I am on a reduced sugar kick, so greek yogurt fit right in. Plain, then I add fresh fruit. Not quite to 31 combinations yet.
