Hive account@saronym yes, there is a lot of spam and some posts that personally I would not allow. But, there are also really good people here too. You have to get through all the bs to find the great people to interact with. When I first began on steemit, not too long ago, I used the introduce me tag to find new members that were interesting. I also, took value in others comments and those who commented on my posts. Just remember to comment and post regularly and you will start finding people you like or can connect with. Happy steeming.
