I joined in November 2017, and I feel that I am still a baby, although I confess I have not devoted much time to it.
This is a very broad world, which basically feeds on virtual and personal interrelationships. In theory, mutual support strengthens the community, and as an investment, I'm still not very clear, I have a friend who trades and mining and doesn't find steemit attractive, but there are other opinions, so it's great that you look for the answers yourself and I hope you find a way to make it appealing to you, in an honest way.
I hope you enjoy the ride, it can be a lot of fun. I am at your service in any way I can help you, within my limited knowledge.
Greetings!
My English is not that good, so I support myself for the translation with www.DeepL.com/Translator
