Contest: Why I love Steemit

Well, steemit is a lovely place to be and over few years i have been around i have found lot of things to fall in love with on our platform and i am glad that @nattybongo has given us this opportunity to tell about our love for the community.

A Simple User Interface

As human as we are we certainly get discouraged easily when things tend to be too stressful for us, the lot would end up giving up whiles the few may persevere, if there's is anything i love more about our platform is the fact that things are quite simple and easily navigable even for the newbie.

And things keeps get even simpler, now with the community system it is easily to find a niche for one's self, just be original and share your story any day any time and once your content is good enough you can earn whiles at the same time having fun. What could be better than this?

A Community of Amazing People

Here is another reason why i love steemit, the people that make up the blockchain are just simply amazing, they are friendly and very encouraging. I have felt so much love since my inception on the steemit blockchain from my Ghanaian community to people i have not even met, everyone here is just respecful and curteous, even the whales who may have said they have everything are still humble and support the minnows with so much passion.

Most often except the very few who may be looking to make their own and vanish, the community is all about support for one another, as @njaywan rightly said the buddy system. And this support mentality tends to transcend from the blockchain into our daily lives that we end up making real life steemit friendship that transcends our life time. If only you will be amenable and open, you will certainly love it here.

Easily transfer funds

One other great thing i fell in love with since my time in on this platform is the fact that your small earnings doesn't have to go into transaction fees. Image you have been able to make somewhere 10sbd after weeks of writing and you end up giving up about 2sbd to fees for transaction in your attempt to get something on you for upkeep?

Well that doesn't happen here and i love that it doesn't, there are avenues to easily convert your funds too to fiat with the help of platforms like binance and other exxchanges like poloniex and the likes that makes it easy for you to turn your earning into bitcoin to sell for fiat.

Well i for one most often than not send it to either @anaman or @nattybongo to get the transactions done for me and i am truly grateful to them however it still doesn't take aware the fact that if you want to do it yourself the process is so simple and with just some few steps you will be good to go or do things on your own.

The Learning Never Stops

---

The last thing i am going to talk about is the learning, on the blockchain we are moved to learn and engage, we are moved to help others, bringing them onboard and showing them how things are done that they may also benefit as we do. To be able to do all this you need to learn and we are privileged to have all information available to us now unlike in the old times when finding info was so difficult.

Now you have the crypto academy, you have mentors willing to teach and guide you to becoming successful, we have healthy engagement on post directing you as to how to go about things and all. If only you will make the effort, you will always gain something new, something insightful everyday on the blockchain, from learning about health, to how to support others, to how to do something new etc. They are all available, just put in the effort and the platform will certainly change your life.

On this note i am going to end here and say big thank you to our community leaders both in steem-ghana and steemit as a whole for the commendable work they are doing, it is amazing the efforts been put into it and we are hopeful for the very best and the brightest future in some few times to come. Have a nice day and stay safe.
