Have you heard of what Utopian is? It's basically a platform layered on top of the STEEM Blockchain, just like Steemit.
It allows you to make contributions, from translations to development/code to graphics to suggestions, for open-source projects and get rewarded.
It's really cool, you can check it out at https://utopian.io :)
Hope you enjoy Steem!
PS: In case you want a more guided welcome to Steem, my friend @inquiringtimes has a Discord server called Welcoming Committee aimed to help new Steemians get accustomed around here. Feel free to check it out as well.
Thanks for your help! I'm going to delve into Utopian right now, haha.
I may drop into the discord a little later on.
Perfect! If you want to contact me, feel free to comment on any of my Steemit posts or reach me at @mooncryption on the welcoming committee Discord server.
Good luck :)
