I totally understand your reservation for communities since you're coming from Steemit, but Hive has evolved 😁
Rules! No one likes them I guess... however, they are in place to guide you and keep you on the right track;-)
Already from your profile of interests, there's #Needlework Community, #DailyBlog, #3Dprinting, #DIY, #FoodiesBeeHive, and a whole range of others.
If you are into Coffee (or tea) you might like Cinnamon Cup Coffee, where you could share all those coffee shop experiences, and anything coffee-related, or also the The Minimalist community, both of these are communities that I run;-)
Some communities like #WeekendExperiences, #LadiesOfHive, Coffee, and Minimalist also have weekly initiatives that can be fun to participate in activities, as you get the chance to read different perspectives on the same topic, and a way to interact and draw attention to your blog.
No pressure though, just a few hints in the right direction;-)
Enjoy 😁
