You will see posts calling out other users, criticizing the site, making allegations, I got caught up in this when I was new and it wasn't helpful. My suggestion is to make sure you understand the site and the users a bit, before you get sucked into the rabbit hole of "It isn't fair or so and so is cheating".

Amen. I've noticed quite a few new users getting sucked into that drama, which is really sad to see because they haven't had much time to get to know the platform before they already decided to take sides. One of the things that attracted me to Steemit was seeing the writers who exuded an attitude of abundance. That completely opened my eyes to the potential of crypto, and I am a better person for it. Having negativity and scarcity be the first influence for minnows bums me out because it brings over the dominant values of other platforms.
