I think it’s marvelous that you recognized a problem with the #introduceyourself tag and decided to do something about it. If we each take a little bit of the initiative to improve steemit, it can easily be a top social media platform someday.
Like you pointed out, retention stats improved have improved just from your part in making @welcoming . Kudos to you my friend! We are all a family here and shouldn’t be shy in helping each other out.
Whales are always watching for minnows that want to make an impact on this platform! It shows that if you have a good idea/content on steemit, the whales will support and encourage you!
Enjoyed the post @theaustrianguy !
