The period of time required for maintenance keeps getting longer and longer. This is the problem I have been talking about since November last year, that I am saying, is now becoming terminal. This is why poloniex has quit working with it, and now all you see is 'waiting on the steem team to fix the problem'. @ned just to remind you, fearless leader, that this network is losing exchangers because of the impossible to operate server software.
I have been here for more than a year, posting, commenting and curating, encouraging newbies, organised Steemit meetups....but finally decided to power down and call it a day. I only hope thete will be somrthing to trade in the next 13 weeks...I have put in a lot of work for that SP. Would like to get something out
The pressure has to be raised against Steemit. They are either going to fix it, or they are going to lose their userbase and position in the market cap ladder, very quickly. By userbase I also include developers and node operators, who are being shafted the hardest.
it looks similar but being hitched to the ethereum horse is a bad idea imo. ethereum is going to hit scalability problems in the future and this issue is central in guiding my design.
I also am completely against virtual machines. Interpretive languages, well, for now thanks to browsers we are stuck with that but I hope in the future fully native app frameworks will emerge. This will be a later element.
Also, to be clear, steem type rewards for development contributions are the central defining feature of DIV. Nobody has had this idea. The forum is a necessary part because a dev platform needs issue trackers, and from there you go to wiki, and media hosting/monetisation...
@elfspice you are thinking on a different plane to me {smile}... 39 years of I.T. and I am tech'ed out. Was really hoping Steemit was the answer to setting me free ...{shrug}

They not hurting, so no big incentive.
I doubt that is true. If it's not gonna be the only game in town soon, doubly so.
Is Status not something similar? https://blog.status.im/tagged/introduction
