I'm totally with you on this great observation and idea. Putting those items upfront without needing to find the 'menu' button should be a huge benefit.
So far my only suggestion for the help site might be to include something on 'finding people/people finding you' side of things. (I may have missed it in there.) This could just be including steemit.chat (with maybe the 5 main promo rooms and how to find topic specific ones) and perhaps some of the discord communities (steemspeak, steem venue, steem pub, maybe beyond bitcoin on mumble, etc.)
Love the site though, very well organized with great 'ramp up' info!
Thanks. It is in the mini FAQ (which is not that mini now that I look at it!). I think I might put together something new and separate on that as we now have Discord too and to make it easier to find. It might be worth doing a post and collating some ideas and tips from others too - I might make it more fun by giving out some Steem to the best idea. People seem to enjoy that and it helps to get people talking too.
Ah, I thought it was in there somewhere but missed it looking through this time. Def no worries. I could see many enjoying putting some of that together with a steem reward. If helpful, I did this post a while back on some of the voice chats out there, I know I forgot to include steemtrails in there, maybe others were missed too.
OK thanks I will check it out:)
