Don't let the bad apples spoil it for you! I'm so sorry that you have had a bad experience, but I've been here over 4 years and have learned to hang out with the good folks and ignore the others. And take my word for it, there are an abundance of good folks! And good communities that don't pounce on mistakes and are willing to guide you along! Give yourself a bit more time to find your friends. We are waiting to meet you! ❤️💐❤️

I am also on the Steem/Hive blockchain for more than 4 years (since 2017.05.17), and I can say something similar. There are some good people. Although I also had (and sometimes I still have) some periods, where I considered leaving the Steem/Hive blockchain (for other reasons).
I actually/really left the Steem blockchain multiple times, but I always returned to it. But nowadays I almost completely left it. Nowadays other than my Actifit reports, I do not really post anything to the Steem blockchain.
Nowadays I have more than 1300 followers, but most of them left the platform long months/years ago. And this is just/only me. Hundreds of thousands of people left this platform. So we have to admit the fact that there is (or at least was) definitely a huge problem with the user retention of this platform. Probably it is still a big problem, just/only the reasons are different.
Thank you. I appreciate the support. A couple of awesome people reached out to me, and I am taking a bit of time to rethink the situation. I try to have a thick skin, but it can be challenging sometimes. Thanks again for your kind comment.
I've had a couple of moments where I was disgusted enough that I considered packing up and slamming the door, but after seething for a time, all of the great experiences and lovely people that I have met here were a much stronger draw. I hope you find the lovely people! You are welcome to post into the Feel Good Community and if you like to take photos, Shadow Hunters is filled with great people.
