Okay, so I spent my first afternoon diving into Steemit, and, I must admit, I'm a bit stumped by the way it all works. I'm interested in finding a social media network that I can encourage my real-life friends to join for sharing stuff and avoiding advertising, and I'm not that keen on hosting my own (although it might come to that). Maybe Steemit will be the answer, but I'm pretty sure I can't encourage my parents to join up or I'm going to be taking a ton of support calls from them.
That said, I think I'm up for the task of figuring it out. I THINK. And after all these years of Facebook I'm pretty excited about getting to use italics in posts.
I'm a little sad because I'm about go on a technology-free vacation (well, I'm not really sad) and so I've got to leave my account quiet for a whole week right after it got set up. I have thought about scheduling a couple of posts in advance. I found this article about Steemauto by that I'm hoping will help.
Here's something dumb Facebook tried to sell me the other day. And, no, I'm not a vascular surgeon. Not even close.
