I honestly could never really get into STEEM or HIVE because it wasn't built simple. I haven't a clue what I just read, but I know this site is not built for noobs. It's not as simple as write good post get good rewards. It's a technical matter of so many different things combined to make a good reward even though the post may be garbage.
I hope to better understand this time around as I want to start making halfway decent post where someone finds what I want to write about somewhat interesting to at least read halfway thru what I write.
