RE: SteemWorld ~ Weekly Support ~ #5
Absolutely the best thing going on Steemit, @steemchiller!
The little pop-up post got me here, and I can't help but think it will be more effective than having to click on the link at the top while the site is loading.
What is amazing and beautiful is that you are developing this all on your own and yet there are constant updates and improvements, and always new things happening. AND you find time to create these update posts. AND you communicate with your users! Contrast that with STINC where it seems to take MONTHS to change the font color of one tiny field, or something.
It is baffling to me that STINC hasn't pitched some support to you, even in the form of a delegation or something. Hey @ned, @andrarchy and co.! Is there some reason you're not supporting this project... which thousands of users are actively benefiting from; which is a great example of a highly USABLE UI; which is constantly under dynamic development?
Come on folks! There's more to Steemit "development" than having a bunch of people eternally talking about updates to their White Paper without actually having a functioning PRODUCT in front of people! Time to step up to the plate here and support something that is more than a theory and a plan!
Sorry to "go off" on your post @steemchiller, but it really makes me angry that you're not getting more support from "higher up!"
Thanks for your kind words! I guess it is difficult for @ned and Steemit in general to support something that is not open source.
All transactions are being signed locally on the site with the help of Steem.js (a great open source Steemit development) and I don't even store any private keys in the local browser cache but one can't see how I do it exactly (since SteemWorld is not open source and the code is hardly readable in minified form). That could be a major reason for not getting supported by Steemit.
As soon as I can pay the registration fee for SteemConnect I will add the possibility for users to use it instead of my own solution, so that more trust in my product will be achieved.
Well said @curatorcat! I use @steemchiller's site on a minute to minute basis - EVERY SINGLE DAY!!!! and I really WOULD be lost without it! To be honest though, I did not realise until I also received the pop up and came to this post, that it was a one man show! :(
The lack of support (by those that can WELL BLOODY AFFORD IT) for SO MANY of the FUNDAMENTAL and PIVOTAL people of this platform is honestly NOTHING short of fncking SHOCKING!!!!!!!!!!!
Why is it so DIFFICULT for SO MANY, to grasp the concept of "team work"?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!!!!!!!!!
As I said in my comment on this post, I will dedicate whatever I can on a permanent basis to @steemchiller, because I make use of the service DAILY and it would be REALLY good form, to see the rest of the regular users of the site do precisely the same! - Not just upvote this post, but put forward some consistent support!
I could literally scream with frustration at the lack of foresight and selfishness of so many on this platform!!!!!! I have over 250 people on an autoupvote list here on Steemit and YES, I engage with 90% of them on a consistent basis - WHY can others (who are worth a SH!T load more than me) not do even an inch of the same?????
The mind boggles....
Totally right. I am convinced Stinc doesnt care at all about Steemit.
They are very wrapped up in SMTs, it seems. I'm sure they care about the price of Steem, but I'm not sure how much they care about Steemit, the front end.
Very much correct! In my view, they dont care much about the front end, at all!
I agree with you guys. I think Steemit is just a proof-of-concept and they are working on building a developer centric platform. If that is true, then I guess I'll be happy enough as I see a ton of apps coming on right now.
