Am I stupid?

in steemit •  7 years ago 

Ok, as a complete noob to steem. Should we or should we not delegate steem? I only have a few SP, like 90, but in my attempt to help the platform, I chose to use Steemauto's curation trail and follow some of my favorite curators, is that a good thing to do? I want this platform to grow because I have a lot of faith in it, but there are a lot of moving parts that I have yet to understand (The other day I got attacked by bots because I replied to a post haijin (or something like that) made. Then my phone exploded with notifications of people flagging me. That was a really sad feeling because my comment was really genuine and I'm not a bot of anyone.

For now I wouldn't worry about delegating STEEM.

I personally would advise against trails for now too, at least wait until you have more Steem Power, and choose your votes (maybe on comments to increase their visibility) for the content/authors you really take a liking to. The aim early on is to gain like-minded followers, but it is tough without the 'proof of stake'.

Perhaps look into @curie, @utopian-io, @dtube - These accounts do not care about your proof of stake, and reward content for it's content - not the author.

Sorry about the flags relating to that account - I would take a watching brief on those posts.

Good luck!

Thanks! I will definitely take a look at those. I'm a developer and I see a huge potential on this place. I just want to learn all the ins and out of Steem and what can I do to grow this place. And of course, it is a great tool that can lead to financial gain.
