You know that this is the perfect name for an app! :-)
I'll download the surfer now and will test it. Post scheduling sounds awesome! I'm also curious to try your editor, since this is one of the most important parts for us bloggers.
Thank you Marly for kind words! (Got caught up on your waves 🙊)
Yes, please let us know how it works out and if there is anything we can improve further. We are working next batch of improvements, I am sure you will love it 🙂 🏄
Awesome! After testing the release today, I'll be definitely publishing my further blog posts via Surfer - the variety of features is outstanding and makes blogging especially efficient and also entertaining! Thanks for stopping by, have a great weekend and see you around
Something that makes it unusable for me is that you can't zoom in on text. Like with the Apple magic trackpad. This means that everything looks very far away from the eyes.
I'm keen to try this out, as I've been posting on esteem, lately :) When I clicked on link to download, I got these options, which should I choose from my laptop (I use Windows 8, by the way)
You're more than welcome! So I suppose you're also part of the eSteem team? I only tagged @good-karma since I didn't know who else was involved, but obviously the applause belongs to all contributors :-)
This community is blessed with great talented like developers doing this everytime. I am very thankful I found this great community last May 2017 by the help of @craig-grant. I hope he can turn back to his one of his first love, steemit.
Great work! I will test and review soon. Resteemed!
One question - How are you calculating the conversion to local currencies for expected post payouts? I ask because when I compare the figures I see in GBP to what I would expect based on the figures I usually use at steemstats.com - they don't match up.
I attempted to use different calculations to produce the results seen in Surfer, but didn't come very close to the figures seen in Surfer.
Rate assumes SBD is $1, I think that's why there is a difference. It makes sense to improve that and use market value of SBD. Noted down and will improve that soon, thanks!
Oh, I see, ok, yes - a Real value for SBD would help. :)
In case you are unaware, there is a somewhat unexpected mechanism for converting the predicted post payout value into fiat values. I suggest using the guide made by @dragosroua on steem.supply for a breakdown of how to best approach it: http://steem.supply/rewards
Great esteem ... I really doff my hat to everyone working on esteem project... it’s really amazing how our community is blessed with so many talented and dedicated dev like yours @good-karma
First thing that struck me is the Pin Number upon start up. I can imagine a lot of people mis-typing their pin and then struggling to find it again or something along those lines. I'd maybe make a visibility option or a confirm-pin option!
Love that I can go to CNY currency
Since we're in desktop app territory, would be cool to have freedom to change the colour or background design to more funky things.
10%, though well deserved, is still quite high as stated by others. I'd use it for 5% for sure (An issue I have with all developing front ends on here)
This is just my first thoughts but overall impression is positive!
If PIN code is wrong for some reason, after few attempts Surfer clears all credentials to save you from brute force attacks, of course you can relogin and set up new PIN after that.
Glad you like that ;)
We are working on theming and firstly night mode feature for next release and as we continue development we will add more options to tweaks
10% mostly goes for development team we have and servers we provide for the community, such as hosting your images for free, notifications, api servers, etc. And any additional is used for improvement of the services continiously and bringing new applications, services on top of Steem.
eSteem application is provided for free and can be download from Apple AppStore and Google PlayStore as well as from out official Github, but there is a beneficiaries reward split where 10% of your post and comment rewards shared with eSteem project. These funds are used for further development of the application and continue to bring services for its users. Part of these funds are allocated for notification server, image hosting and other service costs. eSteem also runs encouragement, spotlight and translation programs where anyone can earn extra reward by participating. Those rewards are also part of these expenses.

We have added zooming feature, Version 1.0.1 will be out by end of the week. Stay tuned!

Great! I just joined the channel :-) See you there!
Welcome to eSteem Discord Community!^^
amazing you all
Great job @good-karma! I'm testing it right now! :-)
I've managed to crash the app in multiple ways with always the same result. Crash and exe file delete itself.
To crash click discover and refresh a few times, I think the larger the resolution the faster it crash (once on a 4k screen)
Thanks, we will check it out and fix... added bug report to github: https://github.com/eSteemApp/esteem-surfer/issues/33

Great job regardless btw!
Is eSteem application free to use?
eSteem application is provided for free and can be download from Apple AppStore and Google PlayStore as well as from out official Github, but there is a beneficiaries reward split where 10% of your post and comment rewards shared with eSteem project. These funds are used for further development of the application and continue to bring services for its users.

Shucks!
