Were my expectations too high? (sh.itjust.works)

I think I have a decent setup (heltec v3, 3000mah battery, aftermarket antenna) yet I struggle to make contact with anyone. I'm a little confused as I do receive messages on the general the Long-Fast channel but my messages never seem to send or be acknowledged. Am I doing something wrong or is this just the nature if radio comms?

I have not connected to MQTT. I'll have to look into that as I didn't know where to start with it.

In the us there are MQTT servers for each state and many cities and regions. I haven't been active in a while but my state also has a discord.
