To that I say welcome to Steemit. That's the really cool thing about being here is that you meet so many people from all over the place.
The first few days are a learning lesson for sure but then you'll get the hang of it after a while. Also like you said it is time consuming. Yes indeed. This is why I like to reward people who give effort to give feedback because I know they probably could be doing something else with their time.
Again, thank you. At the moment every day on Steemit has a new highlight for me, so I hope that will continue like this for a long time, even if learning is a steady process ;)
