What was your first Steem post about? Win 50 Steem!

I found Steemit exactly 1010 days ago, on 18.05.2016
My first root post (besides comments) was short presentation about myself, under introduceyourself
tag.
As I was already in cryptos for several years by then, and a big fan of Satoshi's main ideas, finding Steemit, as a real usecase in a form of Facebook substitution - was a big thrill to me. However it took me some time to feel a full taste of it.
Nowdays I am here on every single day of the year. Not every day brings new root post. some days only few short comments. Some days only a curation, reading, upvoting. But my time spent here vs spent on FB - is maybe 50:1 , or more
My first fan was Tim Cliff

Thanks for great post, with nice idea @themadcurator

I don't need this shit under my comments. And this is not the first time from you. Comment spaming is bad (and most likely you know this fact)
Hence, enjoy my flag to you.

When did you find Steem?
Well, they told me about steemit as one of the best platforms and in March of 2018 I joined her.
What was your first Steem publication?
My introduction and then my life in the process of mourning.
What was your first impression?
At first I was a bit scared because this was something new for me, but if I can tell you that this platform helped me a little, the process of my pain kept me busy and today I thank my sister for introducing me to this wonderful community. .
Who was your first "fan"?
Maybe it was @cervantes.
Mis saludos.

Great contest! Thanks for offering it 🌷❤🌷

When did you find Steem?
For the longest while, i think it was over a year. I watched a fb friend share her Steemit blog posts on her fb account. So, that was 2016-2017. I signed up in Oct 2017.

What did you first write about?
The first 2.5 months i commented a lot. Then my first post was inspired by my online friend mentioned above. It was a Walkwithme Post. It was entirely exhilarating doing that post!

What was your first impression?
I was curious. I knew a bit about blockchain and cryptos and wanted to be involved in them. When i saw my freind starting to have her dreams come alive, she was making professional videos of her song -- because of support she had from the Steemit community, i wanted to really check it out!! I guess i was feeling inspired by the opportunity of something new and totally different than what I already knew. I was dealing with head injury so I made the decision to stick out the learning curve, take as much time learning as i needed, and to have fun with the process. If i got stressed or frustrated I'd leave it a while until my attitude adjusted. The more i learned the more determined i became to stick it out, and never give up.

Who was your first "fan"?
@lyndsaybowes was my first supporter. She was a tireless mentor to me. I likely wouldn't have stuck out the learning curve without her. Her upvotes were also encouraging and fun to get. Crypto was quite a rodeo When I started blogging! The first thing i got into, which was before i signed-up my account was @wwf's book "Graduating Life with Honours". He released one chapter at a time. I was so into the book! I think i chatted with him about it on fb until i could make Steemit comments. I'd like to think he was a fan but what i know is that our relationship began then.

Back to the question -- My first autovotes came from @sagescrub seeing that support was a game changer. It felt like i had my first fan! It was an awesome feeling 🌷❤🌷

We joined Steem in December 2017. We had just finished a long year of Touring and had a bit of time over the holiday break to research for different platforms and initiatives that we could foresee driving the future of the Music "Industry" and we stumbled upon Steemit!
Our first posts was an introduction to our music and our mission as genre bending travelers. We then posted a personal story about a deep connection we had forged with Paris, culminating in a new song "Rocky Roads to Republique".
Our first impression of Steemit was both positive and negative. We were moved by the large number of creative, motivated people on the platform. There were and continue to be a plethora of sophisticated initiatives that support the local community and help encourage the creation of quality content (shoutout to @Curie & @c-squared). The negative side was the steep learning curve that was/is required to understand all that is happening on this platform.
@katerinaramm was the reason we found Steemit in the first place. She had written an article about our music and shared it on twitter. We have remained loyal followers of one another every since!

1- I discovered the steemit by the hand of @duarte9sousa, great mentor of a project that intends to elevate the global consciousness, rooted in the identity of the portuguese speaking world.
2- My first post was a chronicle about writing, because it is an activity that defines me, falls in love and enlightens me.
3- At first, I felt I was being part of a community with great potential for cultural expansion, capable of assuming himself as a true digital nation, with all that implies.
4- My first fan was @matheusggr, whom I thank for the affable and tireless support, encouragement and recognition.

I joined Steem in May of 2018
I first wrote my introduction under the introduceyourself tag
I was excited for this! Steem enabled me to meet people from all over the world, see how creative I could be, have fun doing it, and earning a little bit of Steem while doing it. What else could you ask for? :)
@silvertop

I love posts like this as you get the chance to see how people respond! Great idea! :)

When did you find Steem?

Scott and I found Steem in July of 2018 and it wasn't until August that we were able to begin posting.

What did you first write about?

The very first post was our introduction post. You can view it here. Since we already have a website where we blog about our travels and adventures, I was accustomed to writing about ourselves so it wasn't difficult really.

What was your first impression?

At first I was concerned we would never be found or liked because after three previous years on Facebook (about 210 subs at the time) and YouTube (under 100 subs at the time) and not having any traction I feared this would just another failure to make us feel as if we were wasting our time. However, within two weeks we were completely found and taken in by @dreemsteem and @bluefinstudio's @welcomewagon.

Who was your first "fan"?

There were three people who grabbed on to us @lynncoyle1, @itravelarts, and @mirrors. These three powerhouses got us out there and introduced us. After starting @heyhaveyamet and learning about how to get new people introduced and promoting their posts in places like Steem Terminal (https://discord.gg/XZGPGpz) and on shows like Pimp Your Post Thursdays on the @ramblingradio I have learned that they really put an effort into getting others to notice us. So thankful for them.

Thanks for asking this, it's been really good to remember our roots in the Steem Blockchain Community.

I found Steem a few months before I made my account in October 2018. I used to read some blogs about travel, but later I decided to join the network and share some of my experience.
Like many here, firstly I wrote an introduction post, then a travel guide through all seasons about one beautiful place near city I live in. Curie was generous here.
Perpetuum mobile - how the hell it works! :D
My first fan is @melinda010100, she helped me a lot when I was fighting with RC, she delegated me SP and made me stay here. I also wrote about her in this post.

Unfortunately, I've gotten no steem till now. I don't know how to make money online, I must study myself and I hope someone could tell me how to begin, I'll thank so much.
