Following @mericanhomestead who was kicked off YT, he was looking for a censor-free decentralized video platform and while dtube was being developed, he began posting on "steemit" and recommending his subscribers sign up. Followed many homesteaders who had made a home on steemit early on. This was May of 2017, I only signed up so I could "upvote". I realized I needed "steem power" for my upvote to be worth anything, so this began my blockchain education and daily posting. His last post was three years ago, but here I am still posting! Like many, I switched to HIVE after the fork and been posting daily ever since.
