I also started on hive about 5 years ago when it was just steem of course. It took a very long time for me to finally find my fit in the community and to understand how it all worked. Still finding and creating a good niche for myself but I feel much more comfortable than at first.

There is always so much more room for growth and new users but we need to redo the content discovery and organization for these front ends because the search functions are terrible.
