RE: P2P Youtube, soon to be steem-enabled [Or not]
Ah I see. Hehe I just watched the video, funny I used one same clip in a post a long time ago: https://steemit.com/developers/@acidyo/developers-developers-developers-developers-why-i-know-steemit-will-succeed
but I agree, I think people usually use github to propose new changes and input code so others working on it can evaluate it or something? I apologize I am not too technical and don't know much about that part, but it might just be that they have missed your posts.
It wouldn't also surprise me if they want to be more careful in the future who they are funding depending on some users lately that have decided to quit or cash out on the changes, but that is just something I thought of just now.
But good luck with having magnet links embedded, may I ask if there are any ways for abusive users to use this function to their advantage in some way?
Let me be clear
I'm definitely going to quit if the team isn't receptive. And that is entirely the right thing to do. I've been talking about the issues blocking dev work on steemit forever now. People don't want to have decentralized features of youtube, soundcloud, and image hosting?
OK.
What can I do about it?
Very little without direct assistance in navigating the steemit.com codebase. So....
If the team is receptive, steem market cap is headed to the
MOON.
This is the path to >1B USD / 1.3M BTC. Meaning: Why on earth would I leave the community if these features are implemented? There'd be no reason whatsoever-- I hold a reasonable amount of steem, and it could be worth a lot of money.
Anyway they're fair questions.
If you haven't developed software that interacts with steem, you may not understand the situation. That's OK though-- you don't have this problem, I do.
Let me be doubly clear
The real issue isn't money. It's collaboration.
And given what this is worth, I really don't mind asking for money at all. Money is for transmitting value, after all.
