How Does Your Steem Feed Look?

Steemian Hive account@blunderbabe debates with themselves, and the Steem community, how their blog looks and whether a blog which consists of mostly resteems can be a turn-off: The Great Resteeming dilemma & Other Unwritten Steemiquette Questions

It’s something that should be obvious – I know when I look at blogs, if it’s all resteems, chances are I won’t follow (unless those resteemed pieces are really good or relevant). But I never gave it much thought – for my own blog - until the last 24 hours.

Obviously, by mere virtue of actively posting to this account, I am biased and think that curated resteems can give away a lot about a person’s interest and also orientation. Especially if not given any opportunity to add commentary. The latter which I circumvent with this account, as explained here.

Without possibility to add commentary, resteems almost serve as endorsements and even when not meant as such, often they will be read as such. It doesn’t matter whether a no-endorsement policy is added to one’s Steem bio. Most will not check that out anyway. 🤷‍♂️

It finally clicked if anyone is judging me by what’s on my blog – it’s hardly a reflection of actual me, let alone, Steemit me. Thing is, I have stuff to say. I have strong opinions and lots of ideas and comments – not all of it rubbish, some of it maybe even interesting – but no one would catch even a glimpse of that unless they spent a serious amount of time sifting through my feed.

An interesting point also raised is implicitly the discovery element in Hive account@blunderbabe’s post. Mostly because we often tend to see but the usual suspects or those who follow the usual suspects but are merely minnows searching themselves. Searching for success.

It makes me wonder am I the only casual Steemian out there? Is anyone else on here erratically sans a long term plan? Sometimes I feel like there are only newbie minnows with lofty goals and seasoned Steemians with admirable wallets, engaged audiences, and well-crafted niches.

_{Hey there, this is @FknMayhem's alt account.}

_{Here I mostly tumbl (resteem with added commentary and attitude or snark, a form of advanced curation Steem doesn't offer), zapp, post to forums, and submit other miscellaneous mischief. The latter which may or may not include more personal content.}

_{There may be days it can be noisy around here, follow at your own risk. Alternatively, follow my attempts at more in-depth own content on my main account, @FknMayhem.}

_{I am also on zeh Titter. Feel free to pitch me your worthy suggestions there. But make them worth my time. Once Steemit/busy.org has an option to integrate `beneficiaries` when posting, 50% of each curated post’s rewards will go to the original content creator.}
