To be honest, videos like this keeps you at the top of my radar. A nice long video interacting and showing what the community is about. This is why when I try to port people to STEEMIT, i send them to your page, not only to learn but engage. Looking forward to helping your bot out soon, until then keep up the good work and thanks for the tip of GIFs. I didn't even to think to create one for my posts but I will check out out.

I appreciate that, @daywalker1775. Comments like this keep me going!

You're today's comment winner!! 😎🥂

Each day I pick a random comment on my post to upvote and today was your lucky day 🙌🏻

Happy new week @brandonfrye ❤️😍😎👌

Thanks @josteem, hope you have a great weekend!

Same to you , Good steemian friend !

Such a great channel, really appreciate all the great info and content you put out..!

Thank you and thank you for your delegation. A brand new initiative for minnows is about to launch thanks to everybody’s support! 😊

is it going to be on this channel or another one?

Thank you, Brandon. I really appreciate the time you took going over my comment. I agree hard work and a positive attitude is essential for success for anyone in anything. Unfortunately, I know talented and supportive people and they came on and then it became too hard and I haven't seen them around. Shudder ... they are back on Facebook posting regularly. What I would like is to see more delegation to newbies at the beginning or an algorithm that identifies the platform building newbies, so we don't lose the good ones. I do think this place is better than FB but I will reiterate it is a very steep climb at the beginning.

A really great post:):):) Definitely quality content:)

Thanks @prydefoltz, I’m glad you took the time to watch. I was actually just looking at the stats for new and active users on Steemit and I’m wondering if there is a disconnect somewhere with expectations. Like when a big youtuber comes to Steemit expecting immediate success bc they don’t realize they need to build a following here also. That’s something that might need to be addressed as well. Anyways, I think that keeping new people here is important like you’ve said. So I’m game for finding some solutions to that.

For sure there is a disconnect with some new users. I think there always will be. People dream bigger than the hours of the day. But no, it really is difficult for newbies on here to even network ... low bandwidth and not even a penny attached to their vote, even when they are at full vote power. It's dismal. I had someone delegate to me so I could have enough bandwidth and then when I was close to a slider, he delegated again so I could have a slider. I think really the key might be greater delegation to those who are really working for the platform, even though they might have not invested. Also once they've tasted some success, they may be more likely to invest. They need to feel confident that the platform will work for them. Having people throw their hands up in defeat is a real loss. The 'foot soldiers' need a new pair of shoes ... lol:)

I've been looking for an initiative to fund via my upvote service and you just gave me the BEST IDEA EVER! I'll announce the details soon but I feel that my little corner of the Steem ecosystem could make an impact when it comes to helping new Steemians feel appreciated and improving retention all around. Thanks for your valuable input and inspiration!

I do not know how I inspired ... but all for passing on the good vibes. I look forward to the reveal:)

Thanks for the information about Steepshot. We will definitely look at it. Also need to check out your upvote bot.

Steepshot is great. Hope you try it out soon. 👍🏻

@brandonfrye. Thanks for replying to my comment in your video. The case is really that he was a new user with a reputation of 25 and my reputation was definitely higher than 25.
This picture got flagged by @femaculuka just after I gave him an upvote on one of his two pictures he had back then. I had 22 pictures at that time.
So your assumption that this user had more Steempower or Reputation doesn't show to be the case.
That's why in my opinion the algorithms of flagging need to be changed, if they haven't in the meantime.

You're welcome, and thanks for the information. That's really odd that that person's downvote affected you. At least from what I understand, it shouldn't have. But maybe that's something they've fixed/changed since.

Appreciate your time to take all the comments! Learning something everyday! I have been holding on to my SBD as I think that it can still go above parity with Steem as it was before. I am buying Steem anyway so leaving it for when I get more following to invest in upvotes.

Thanks @newageinv, I try my best to get to everyone 😊. And yes, now is a great time to get more Steem if you can. These prices are unreal!

hopefully well start new week
