RE: The importance of making friends on Steemit
I relate to this as well. I can count my best friends on one hand and I haven't spoken to 3 of them in almost a year! LOL That being said, I don't follow for follow because I am trying to find quality work, newbies, and "new-to-me" people that I can find some common ground with.
That's exactly how I feel...ha! I am not alone, even though being alone is my favorite way to be <3
I was like this at first. But then I decided to stop treating my Steemit account like it was my YouTube channel. I still won't follow or share content unless it is quality. I just don't limit it to my very particular interests anymore.
I hear that! I've quite expanded my own "interests" based on a few self-imposed criteria - quality, originality, verification, communication and how member interact with others. I am often more thrilled to see comments than I am watching the number of upvotes. And I'm always shocked and pleasantly surprised when I see any kind of monetary value on my posts. I just began following you but I think I have hesitated in the past, not because of your work, but the amount of resteems I have to scroll through to find your work! I hope you don't find that offensive, I'm just being myself. But hey, I'm going to think of it like you probably follow awesome people that I haven't seen yet, right? Making lemonade out of lemons here :)
Its not offensive, haha! Lately, I have been resteeming a lot because I've been making a number of friends on here in a short amount of time. I usually don't resteem this much!
