Don't worry about that stuff man. Steemit is a really incredible place, and I prefer it here over really any other social media platform, but there can be some ... sensitive people here. Because it is pretty much completely uncensored and open, strong opinions and comments can pop up from time to time, but the community here is generally very helpful and easy to get along with :) I think it's great that you have just joined and you are already thinking of ways to help!
