A lot of us on this blockchain are early adopters. We've started on one blockchain and moved to others.
Today I had a nice talk with a guy from one of those blockchains we are creating in. They have an issue with the hidden content because of a whale being a developer and being able to hide it somehow. I wouldn't write about that blockchain to not offend anyone. So, as an early adopter of the blockchain that was created before, I proposed that they create a fork there, or change the main rules on the base of blockchain to remove that ability to do so from that developer. I suggested to make hiding content being paid. So, those tokens may go to the development and to the team, or will get burn to support the price of the token and to have less inflation.
In another blockchain I noticed as well people talking about upvotes and how newcomers are asking how to get them. I proposed my idea of #dcc to make every content creator promote another. That will give change to newcomers to be seen. And while discussing the solutions, I thought about the experience many of us have here on the blockchain. Many of us are creating and curating content here for years. And we all know each other and every single one of us is participating in a project or active in a community. We are so divided at the same time being able to connect. We have our differences and even our old resentments. We even formed a new crypto character acting based on our experience. How many times we associate a username with a project or a community. Maybe even with events we all witnessed.
And while curating, we already formed old habits. Some may get rid of them and change based on the development, and some just continue what they are doing without any change. So, being so connected to our old friends, and being active on so many projects and communities, we may forget about newcomers. We may forget how important it is to support them. Because when they join, they don't know so many things, and they may expect a lot. Some of them are young people, and it's hard for them to learn hard, like we did. I try to onboard people from time to time and I discuss many things with those who joined recently. Because I curate the new page from time to time. As well thanks to the #dcc initiative, while our members are promoting content, I see so many faces and I see what they are writing and how much they need support.
That's why on one hand, we the old adopters have to be smoother with newcomers, and the same about them, they should understand that we are also so busy.

Thanks a lot.
This is very true. Especially on Dtube.
Yeah, I hope those who are looking for votes will read this to understand that the success of some accounts here is based on a lot of loses, waste of energy and time and being active during years, but not starting and wanting directly to always hit the trending. It will demand a lot of work, and we are the early adopters are enjoying it. If they will be patient like we were, they will be rewarded as well. They just need to help us find them.
I have learned that the best way to earn anything on Blurt, Steem, Hive and Dtube is to invest …. just buy some coins, power up and earn from Curation. The Investors and the Curators earn 90 % more than the Creators.
I agree with the commenting but I find a lot of people are not ENGAGING when they comment. They are too self-absorbed. It's a skill and it's called the art of listening. They have to engage with the content before commenting with something valid. I found most of my friends on social media through looking through the comments and learned a lot too. I think it is even more important on here to fully 'converse' and not just drop a 'token comment'.
Yeah, I forget to mention that the comment should be related with the topic. You can't imagine how much I hate those comments, like good post, or where they start calling me ser or boss. It's so ridiculous, from people don't respect themselves at all. Thanks to the mute button, I can not see that anymore. Now they re doing that even in noise, expecting tips from me. lol I just ignore such messages.
The 'sir' 'boss' thing is cultural. I heard it a lot in East London. I found it kind of cute at first but wondered what they call women in the same instance. Aunty? Mrs?
