Staff Picks

comment.upvote doesn't work on some cases at Beem by @emrebeyler [bug-hunting]

Beem is a Python library dedicated for Steem developers created by @holger80. This project has been developing rapidly, and we can see updates to it made almost every day, often as a result of reports submitted to the project. One of these reports, by @emrebeyler, describes a bug in the commenting functionality. One of the methods for the Comment class did not work as expected in all cases. Any attempt to upvote a comment or a post would fail if it was not upvoted by someone else previously. @emrebeyler has written a clear report and included a demo script to reproduce the issue, pointing out the exact cause of the problem.

Thanks.

Based on the data presented to the number of contributors it seems like it is going down based from the number of contributors from the past months.

I'm confuse if it is negative impact or not.

Enlighten me.

Hey @jaderpogi the number of contributions is quite stable. We are working on bringing more contributors from outside the Steem ecosystem and we will likely see the contributions number growing exponentially on Utopian V2!

How to know if my post was among development 49-40=9 that were not upvoted?

Hello @abitrolly if you don't get an upvote within 72 hours is safe to assume your contribution did not qualify.

Take a look at my profile, See if you like something. Greetings from Venezuela.

Congratulations!
I like most the utopian.
