RE: BrandonFrye Witness Update - v0.20.4 Patches Applied

in #witness-update6 years ago (edited)

this has been painful. but hopefully it all works out. i’m very concerned about ease of use for new steemians.

if we want more adoption, regardless of the fancy terms we use now, we have to give them the flexibility to grow and not get too confused.

frustrating to watch so many forget about the new steemian in all this. i hope the future gets easier for them and more adoption can happen.

It sure has. One thing that still boggles me is why Steemit.com (the UI) hasn't updated their interface in some time. And why didn't they add the RCs to the dashboard somewhere so people know their balance and how they can use them? Perhaps this is coming later, but the whole idea was to sort of gamify the platform and improve the user experience. It's almost as if Steemit.com (the interface) was never meant to be a long-term application, but rather a starting point for other Dapps on the blockchain. I hope that's not correct, because I use Steemit more than any other app here and think it deserves to be updated even (and especially) if it IS simply a model for other apps.

that’s a good point. and even before hardfork 20 we had no idea about bandwidth. i remember that video you did months ago when you discovered it.

it’s like they assume everyone is a programmer and understand all the backend stuff. which of course scares away every day adopters.

I don't even use Steemit anymore. I use busy.org or @steempeak. They both have much better UI and provide more stats and notifications.
