I waited a good two weeks to finally receive approval to login yesterday. I’ve done nothing but read blogs and comments, with this being my very first response to anyone. I find myself comparing your experience with what I’ve witnessed with my Instagram account. Ever so often, I spend time unfollowing all the ones who NEVER interact. I only reciprocate with a follow if I sincerely like their post and do not initiate the follow without liking several of their post in advance. It’s going to take me awhile to learn my way around Steemit, but comments like yours is both educational and encouraging as I have experienced similarities in other platforms and now know to expect much the same here. Thanks for the warm welcome and support.
