[suggestion] Increase max number of dapps that a user can use

in #utopian-io5 years ago (edited)

Repository

https://github.com/steemit/steem

Issue: https://github.com/steemit/steem/issues/3428

Components

  • Maximum number of dapps or accounts that can share posting right authorities.

Proposal Description

Today I found a very interesting error message from a user who's trying to use my service @scotauto (Steem Scot claim automation service).

Due to the nature of the service, a user need to authorize its posting right to @scotauto, but the user got the following error message:
"size <= STEEM_MAX_AUTHORITY_MEMBERSHIP: Authority membership exceeded. Max: 40 Current: 41"

The error message who will get if you've already authorized your posting rights to 40 apps, but trying to authorize it to an additional app.

While I'm not a huge fan of authorizing posting rights to dapps (personally I strictly avoid it whenever it's possible), we should not limit it unnecessarily either. It's basically a user's choice.

In addition, authorization can be used for multisig operation.

Thus, I suggest increasing it enough so that accounts can use more dapps.

Mockups / Examples

The limit is defined here, so you can simply increase this by changing that number.

Benefits

  • More possibility for more dapps
  • More possibility for multisig operations

Honestly, I had no idea about the limit of the dapps we can use. I always thought that we can use infinity dapps.
Given the fact that more and more dapps will be built on steem blockchain in future, 40 is is very small number. I guess increasing the number of dapps we can use will be necessary soon if not today.
Thank you for another great idea, we are already looking for more.

Hi @syedumair, I actually made another contribution which I really like and think it's very important. You'll also like it :) [suggestion] beneficiary payout amount for paid out posts

Thank you for your review, @syedumair! Keep up the good work!

I also thank you for finding this interesting problem :)

Korean: 신기하게도 포스팅권한 위임에 40개 제한이 있는데 그걸 꽉 채운 유저가 있네요. @scotauto 가입하는데 에러가 난다고 해서 알게 되었습니다. 개인적으로 scotauto처럼 꼭 위임이 필요한 경우가 아니면 위임하는 구 스팀커넥트 방식은 없어져야 한다고 생각하지만 여전히 많은 부분 스팀커넥트에 의존하고 있으니 제한을 늘리라는 단순한 제안입니다.

스팀커넥트는 40개 제한이 있었군요. 새롭게 알게된 사실이네요. ㅋ
그리고 블록체인스튜디오님 최근 한달 동안 매우 많은 활동을 하셨군요.
덕분에 스팀잇에 다시 활기를 불어 넣어주시는 것 같습니다.
Finex도 화이팅입니다.
