RE: Steemit Home Page Redesign Part 3
It's looking nice. I don't know if I have a user error on my end, but I thought I once saw notification numbers over your(Jerry's) page, kinda like I see red notification numbers on Facebook, but I've never seen such notifications on here. I am using Safari on a Mac. Maybe that's the problem? The new design looks like it's going in a nice direction. Keep up the good work.
I am also on mac. I do understand your ask for a notification feature but could you elaborate more on what you'd like to be notified about. The standard user "hates" notifications because it becomes really intrusive and not helpful. I am totally open to little circles on tabs, icons etc. but it needs to not be invasive and something that truly helps. Hmm... perhaps notifications on tabs but if so, there could be 100's in that circle. Perhaps at the "my blog" level where you have replies etc it could be useful there to engage the user to respond to comments left. what are your thoughts.
I like knowing when I have replies to comments. I find too many intrusive but not if they’re meaningful. I think it helps me engage better.
I agree that’s a great use for notifications. Did you have any other locations for notifications?
It might be nice seeing notifications for getting likes/upvotes on posts, and it would even be pretty cool if it briefly stated the weight of a given like. Isn't there another website or something that can determine someone's weight? I just thought it would be cool. Separately, a private messaging feature for people who follow each other would be nice.
Yes there are 3rd party plugins to see weight. I’ll be addressing that when i get to the “my blog” page. Good observation though. Private messaging will never happen while they use discord as there version of slack for the platform. Getting notifications on upvoted would drive you NUTS lol not happening. Lol
All notwithstanding, I'm exited to see where Steemit goes! :) Today I've been struggling with uploading a video to D.Tube. I'm sure I'll figure it out, but it is tedious. I'm on a mac, trying to upload an .mp4 file. Tells me that I'm not running IPFS on my computer. Tried on 3 different browsers. I had a similar issue on DSound, but it got sorted when I tried a different browser. Any advice?
You must upload using chrome. It won’t work on safari
Opera worked for me yesterday. :)
Also, I have people I'm following that I'd like to "favorite" for a feed of its own. This way I can follow a large number of people, but for people I'm really interested in, I could have a feed unto those that produce the best stuff that I want to see. Just throwing ideas out there. :)
Yes I’m working on a favorites tab
