I think you are awesome and I can definitely relate to a lot of what you're mentioning here. At the beginning (I'm also a month old!), I was spending a ridiculous amount of time trying to comment, upvote, discord, ect but then I would have no time to create my posts- there needs to be a healthy balance for sure! It takes me about half a day on average to get a post out because I am incredibly OCD and I like to do things to the best of my ability (formatting, sourcing etc). At first I had one idea of what I wanted to do here but I have expanded my range to include my other interests as well, like you're mentioning and I think it's a wonderful way to connect with more people and learn more/new things :) I hope you're having fun, I try to post only what I want in the moment so I don't worry about the amount of money or upvotes on my post (that'll drive anyone crazy) :) Seems to me like you're on the right track and learning your way, I love that about you! Happy anniversary my friend!
