Do tell me if I'm doing anything incorrect, of course. Like, for example, I'm not really sure why I'm supposed to use those tags, the person who introduced me to this place just told me to use them 🤷♀️
And... I'm not sure why this post isn't showing up on my profile, that's really weird.
When you create a post on a community, Right beside it you will see "Include also in my blog: yes" and slide "Yes" Then It will show on your blog.

Hi @viy,
Tags are a funny thing, and if you are posting to a community they don't really matter that much. Although using some tags - like palnet and neoxian mean you get awarded Hive Engine tokens too, if the people voting you have any (I do). At some point check out Hive Engine (you don't need to do it yet, because you won't earn any tokens until the post pays out). You log on using your hive id and password (you can use keychain to log in). There may be a token that is specific to gaming on there, I'm not sure.
Some tags (linked to tokens in Hive Engine) are protected and you can get downvoted if you misuse them. But palnet and neoxian are great because they are general tags with no specific content rules (some are linked to specific communities like Leo - leofinance - is related to financial matters).
When you post to a community the posts don't automatically go to "blog" but you'll find them in "all posts". If you use peakd to post to hive there is an option to post to blog at the same time. I don't bother using that, but some people do.
Whatever, even though it isn't shown in "blog" (which is a collection of post you reblog as well as posts you make that aren't posted to a specific community) they will show up in the feeds of people who follow you, and also the specific community.
I hope that helps.
Have a good day.
Tags seem fine, though I did notice you posted via Hive Condenser rather than Ecency.
Ecency has a point system that you get rewarded using for creating posts, you can use the points to promote your posts or boost them. Additionally, others can't spend points on your post to boost it if your post isn't made using Ecency. There's also an Ecency mobile app available, although it can feel a little slow at times.
Also, Ecency has a weekly reward that goes out based on engagement, if you're in the top 30 users who have posted or commented that week, you'll receive bonus points. However, I don't think you have enough Hive Power right now to be able to make that many posts as you only have enough to make ~3 a day. That probably won't be the case anymore in 10-14 days if you continue to post content like this.
@felt.buzz already answered your question as to why this post didn't show up under blog. However, in most interfaces there's an "All Posts" button you can press to see all posts someone's made.
Maybe @themarkymark will notice you've made the first post in the Board Gaming community.
As for Hive Engine, you currently have ~10.375 NEOXAG, ~5.58 BPC, and ~1.225 PAL in pending payments. To my knowledge, all three of which you've been using in your post tags will accept pretty much any kind of post.
