It took me so long to get to Steemit, mostly because of the disappointment of other platforms and not wanting to deal with yet another

I have to admit, Steemit does have some problems, but, if you move out of your profile and really look around -there is so much here and so much good going on here.

People take it upon themselves to mentor, advise, help, befriend and boost one another to a better place. I have only met you recently, Sostrin, and the thing the really stood out (to me) is your charitable heart. There is not the what's in it for me that I see so much, but, rather how can we make this better? You offer your time, your money, your expertise. I bow down to you. Truly.

I understand it is not all rainbows and unicorns here, but, with people like sircork and places like Discord... we have a better chance of finding a place that we want to nurture and help grow.

I understand your need to be part of this better good. I do. tip!
