Wow, thumbs up for your article. +1 to that point 4 alone... It is so easy to forget this etiquette. I have been a culprit on this on quite a few occasions. I am learning!
In a way steemit is like going back to college and all these sub-communities are the various departments (I am talking about dance club, music club etc, not actual courses :D) we can dip ourselves into. I think being really engaged in them will give a much better steemit experience as a whole.
