WHY is there no information coming from steemit?

in #blog7 years ago

I have only been on this platform for a little over 2 months (and estimate,not absolute).

The last few days of using steemit have become hard work.

I find myself:
waiting to post (if it doesn't disappear.
not being able upvote - well maybe, eventually.
having my comments not be posted - and then when I try again, find it has been posted twice.

These are niggles, but have been going on for a few days.

ANY new steemitians just joining - will have just left - that's for sure.

And nothing regarding this issue from steemit?
Lazy?
Don't care about our user experience?

It's all very troubling, in regards to the lack of proffessionalism expressed.

(and please don't say 'use busy.org ' -

It's not about that, its about being informed as to what is going on, on THIS website, not alternatives to posting)

Rant over!

Sort:  

Let it all out @lucylin, way to go :-)

the silence is just so frustrating.........

Simple downtime message or some announcement would be nice. Steemit forgot people have money here!

I find these optimists disheartening! lol

and please don't say 'use busy.org '

A realist and optimist - fine. Nothing wrong with that.

Self delusional, echo chamber, hippie's.....If you think - it it will happen. grrrrrrrrrrr

I too voiced this opinion a couple of times.
No answers come though.
Which is why I exist in parallel view of this place.
I like what it can be - I dislike what it currently isn't.

So I conclude: the "inner circle" are hopeful.. thus are advancing it in the background.
At the same time, they are lining their pockets in the now.. in case the ship completely sinks.

They don't give full disclosure though, because just like a badly ran business.
If the workers were to view the books, they might look for another employer.

in the free market of ideas, its a losing strategy .
Sooner or later, someone will come along with better 'employment terms'

Yes, I share this belief also.
Steemit is a good start - just not quite there.

The fact that it has existed for some time now as an alternative.
Yet, not really going viral or garnering mass adoption.
Add tot that..... the shadiness....

oh shit, I'm getting depressed now.

Good Rant.
I agree

Not convinced it will change much, but i feel better !

Some of them are truly great.

Steemit is still in Beta, meaning it's not yet a complete working version and bugs WILL be encountered. Be patient as the developers are still working on the final version.

In the meantime, yes kindly use busy.org or chainbb if you encounter issues.

In beta is not the issue.
NOT being notified of any glitches is the issue, and what is happening/duration in terms of glitches etc.

Other sites in beta inform its members what is happening..

It is unprofessional in its conduct.

So why did you say it?

It's the only solution atm, that's why I said it. Some people focus on the solution instead of joining the chorus of complaints.

I thought the solution, was letting it's users know there was a problem, the types of problem, and the duration of the problem.

General strategy of a website owner is not to advise the use of other sites, if theirs isn't working...just sayin'.
I don't see ignoring the problem, and not being vocal about it- is in anyway helping in solution - quite the opposite in fact.

We're all sitting in the dark in the same basket.
