Thank you for posting this. I just started out on steemit and am still getting a handle on the etiquette and just how everything works in general. When I first got online a few days ago I definitely did a bit of blind following out of not really knowing what was going on. But since I've figured out how to find artists and creators that I actually want to interact with and learn from and have seen just how much originality and authenticity is valued and tangibly rewarded on steemit. It's so different than what I am used to on so much of the internet. It was sort of shocking, in a really good way. Now I am so stoked to start sharing art and ideas with a genuine, interested, and invested group of people!
