Steemit, you make me crazy!
Yes, in these last days steemit.com make me crazy! I'm having problems to publish my post (sometimes I have to try to publish a post for 2 o 3 times before it works), to reply to the comments, to upvote.
All seems to be so slow. I hope that everything come back ok soon, because even if I could use other interfaces as busy.org or esteem on my phone, I have to say that I love to use the "traditional" steemit.com.
Thanks to a tip from a steemian (sorry, I don't remember tha nickname of the steemian) now I'm using steemitstage.com because it has an interface very similar to steemit.com, as you can see in the following pic:
It's very very simple to use, because it's really a "clone" (with just some little graphic differences) of the "classic" steemit. I like it, also because it seems not have the same issues that steemit.com has in these last days.
About the issues on the interface of steemit, maybe you know that it was a DDoS about two weeks ago. One of the last posts by Ned (you can read it here) talk about the attack and he said that the team are working to prevent others attack and to solve the issues, but at now we still have some problems to use it.
I hope soon we'll have steemit.com great again! ^_^
See ya soon
Silvia


There has been an official statement from @steemitblog regarding the technical issues:

Thanks, @surfermarly ! I really hope everything will be fine soon ^_^
Smashing I missed this, Cheers!
I can't get past the hair "doo" on the lady in the photo!! I wondered how much hairspray she used and how many times she had to tease her hair to get it to stay like that!!!! lol......I'm from that generation so I know.
Steemit is SO frustrating. I haven't used busy.org since I tried it out. I'll give steemitstage.com a look see.
Yes, I think she used so much hairspray for this hair style :D
I'm going crazy too! I'll try steemitstage.com thanks!
I hope everything come back great again soon ;)
Silvia I click on my post at the top, right click open new steemit post then if it does not go through you still have everything, my daughter showed me. Hope it helps.
Ursula, I do the same for my post, it's useful! Sometime (just to be double sure) I also copy the html code. Now I'm using steemitstage because so I can also upvote and resteem without problems, but using different interfaces make me crazy :P
I suffer a similar concern as I end up upvoting and commenting repeatedly just for it to stick once. It is messed up. I am glad I am not the only one. Blessings.
Soon. I hope. 🐓🐓
I think I will give steemitstage a whirl. The main site is killing me
It's killing me too :(
Like everyone else I’ve been finding Steemit.com unusable lately.
Some people recommend using busy.org, but I have to say I really hate the layout. One way to quickly improve it is to change the default display from card to list in settings.
But I still don’t like it, with it’s big spaced out images and difficult navigation, as well as a name that sounds like it is trying to appeal to angry chickens!
A much better alternative is https://steemitstage.com which looks just like https://steemit.com
Steemit More Info isn’t there, but never mind, I’d rather be able to do stuff like voting and commenting!
I'm using steemitstage too, it's a sort of clone of steemit.com . I hope everything come back fine asap ;)
People keep saying Steemit is running better with the layout changes they seem to have copied off Busy, but I still can't vote, and on my tablet it looks horrible - I might do a post about it, because although I like the new font, I actually think they have just made it worse in some ways

Cant get that image of you dancing out of my head lol
I used a site to make pics or gifs using my own face, it's funny :D
