RE: Do we have the best witnesses? Questions for the witnesses.

in #witness-category7 years ago (edited)

Very cool tool! I like it. The only downside is it may be a bit misleading if witnesses (like me) post from their main account (@lukestokes) and are very active but have a separate account (@lukestokes.mhth) just for managing their witness duties.

Suggestion: Could you set up an alias option for each witness? So instead of doing a lookup on @lukestokes.mhth, take a look at @lukestokes also. Don't go off of @smooth.witness alone, but check @smooth too. Instead of just @noisy.witness, take a look at @noisy.

Thoughts?

As you might have guessed, this came up earlier today so I'm already working on this! And it shouldn't be too hard to implement so I should have an update out shortly.

I'm happy to say I just released an update that I think handles this pretty well. Would love any feedback you might have.

It's a little confusing to me. Personally, I would just have a single line. People are less interested in which account posted something and more interested that an account post something. That's my thinking, anyway, but maybe for witness accounts managed by multiple people, what you're doing makes more sense.

For me, I'd view it like so:

Witnessdetail 1detail 2
witness Asomethingsomething
witness Bsomethingsomething
something elsesomething else
witness Csomethingsomething

or just something to group them together more easily instead of spreading them out as separate witnesses (when they are really the same witness)

I struggled with exactly this issue as I was working on this and the witnesses managed by multiple accounts is the part that pushed me to this format. Each row is an asynchronous call so there is no ordering around it right now and I need to fix that.

I'm definitely going to clean up the entire view and will try to find a better way convey these relationships.

Thanks for your feedback, I appreciate your time.
