Congrats on getting verified :) Welcome to the club :) I'm new around here too. Just started about a week. If you have any questions just let me know. I'm part of a team who helps out beginners. We were all helped when we first joined and now we enjoy giving back.
I'll drop some of my favorite articles here that helped me figure this place out. I highly recommend following the woman who created the top two on the list. She's been around for awhile and knows her stuff. I'm at Team #minnowtowhale of @minnowsupport. We also have a women's group that's doing some cool things.
