Hello, @aspauld72! This is @traciyork from the @ocd (Original Content Decentralized) curation team. We noticed you shared your first post here on Hive - congratulations and welcome! It would also be awesome if you could do an introduction post, so our community can get to know you better. For information on how to write an intro post, please check out the SELF INTRODUCTION section of the post 3 things Newbies should do in their first week on Hive.
Speaking of community, we have many different ones here on the blockchain, devoted to all kinds of interests. Here's a link so you can check them all out - Hive Communities . I think you'll find these two particularly interesting to start off with -
Also, as Hive can sometimes be quite confusing, the newly launched Newbies Guide should be helpful to you, as it is a growing repository of useful and easy to understand posts about how the Hive ecosystem works.
Please be aware that Hive is a bit different from other social media platforms since you are monetizing your blog, so it is important not to include content that you don't own without sources (and it shouldn't exceed 50% of the post). For more information, check this post - Why and How People Abuse and Plagiarise by hivewatchers.
For now, @lovesniper will follow your account and we are looking forward to seeing your intro post. Also, please mention (also known as tagging) @traciyork & @lovesniper in your intro post in order for us to be notified, so we can consider your post for OCD curation. Lastly, feel free to hop into the OCD Discord server if you have any questions!
@traciyork I'll try to write an article but don't like the moblie keyboard it hides what you are writing That article was a pain to write
Sorry if typos and missed opportunities for bette r journalism. Have a great day, yours truly,

Hey @aspauld72, no worries - it's not a requirement, just a suggestion.
Also, are you using Peakd to post? I'm a big fan of Peakd on my computer (I don't use my phone for Hive), but I've heard some people prefer using the @ecency app for mobile.
There is Ecency.com and Ecency desktop apps, that works on computer too 😉
Very true, and that's how I Ecency. 😊
As I said, I don't do the mobile thing when Hiving, but I've heard lots of people raving about how awesome the Ecency app is for that. So I tend to plug it for those who use their phones, and PeakD for those who use desktop, since I love both apps. Nice that we're spoiled for choice here on Hive!
I'll try it out. Thanks for the info😀
