RE: Some info about my activity and my stance on flags
@calatorulmiop : I was just listening to Minnow University, a show on @mspwaves (i think thats their tag?), and it sounds like they are getting ready to do just this. I agree with you that it would be wonderful especially for visual learners like me. If you dont know what I am talking about (or for new minnows reading this who may not have heard of it) MSP is the Minnow Support Project, and MSP Waves is their radio show on their Discord server. I don’t really know how to invite you to it though , lol, so just start-a-searchin’ in the search box! Ps @acidyo I have been here about three weeks and found your post very helpful and illuminating. I had no idea about the way flags worked exactly, either. And yes, the learning curve is steep, but I honestly find that part of the intrigue, too. I know that makes it harder for mass-appeal, but its kinda fun for researchy nerds like me . :) So I would never want it to be TOO easy. I think that the laberinthian quality is partly one of the strengths of Steemit.
The basics should be as easy as possible because we want as many people here as we can get. Also it's nice that someone is working on "tutorial" for new users.
I agree! I guess I was just speaking to the way exploration and discovery are a part of the ride here. I think the 101 entry level of Steemit could be vastly improved. I am just nerdy enough to have not been deterred by it. But I am planning to bring a bunch of people to the platform, and so far the best way I can think of to do it is to offer in-person meetups and trainings to help them get over that initial curve. Not everyone has that motivation to soak up so many details to gain access. So yes I understand!
