RE: There's No Flow in Steemit ~ Bounty
There is no point in doing an automatic system of related posts, because inevitably it would pull in the vast majority of posts that have been published over a month before, and hence arn't eligible for further payment.
However, there is nothing stopping people from listing their own related posts at the bottom of articles.
why cant older posts still be voted on ?? seems a shame really !! Would give more hope for smaller accounts that their posts may get voted and read if they were readable and votable ad finitum !!
it would require too much memory ... they have to cut it off at some point, otherwise it's just too much, it would slow down the system too much
yes well this veiw similar content button would serve this very purpose as the algorithim of steemit would put its hand in "PANDORA,S BOX " and pull up someones post or maybe more a list of subjects which could satisfy the readers desire to read and see more of this sort of content. This could blow the thing wide open and in so many ways , giving an organic and lucky bag feel to research !! More fun, more content exposure, end of circle jerking voting and improved user experience. All in possibly one button !! I, m feeling very proud of myself right now !! Eureka !! ; - )
ok i see , but this idea could be functional for how long before the cut off point would be required, any ideas ?? 30 days of increased visibility through this new button, could be a real shot in the arm for authors who are struggling to get noticed in new, active and trending sections no ?
yes, I like the idea, just saying that there are also limits
I just hope some whale upvotes this, so a developer comes along and then we could talk about it and post about it ...
what I said about a random promote post is kind of that idea; give random people a chance
it's not about the payments, it's about user experience ... convenience for those people that actually read posts
but ok, let it be that 1 of the rules is; max 30 days old, so be it, as long there are about 10 posts featured somewhere on each individual post, so I can find something else to read, without having to go 'back' ... that would significantly improve my user experience ...
i have to say that i do agree with your idea on the lack of flow !! I find it difficult sometimes navigating from one area of subject interest to another !! I think the thing could be improved by using the keywords submitted by the author to group other articles in the same subject and vein as the article the reader is currently reading. . Using the title or even better still the content of these older articles in the archives of the blockchain could be pulled up by the reader for further investigation or enrichment. So this " view similar content " button could take the reader to other authors posts where the reader could see other veiwpoints or contents of similar nature !! Im not a programmer, but i studied multimedia design and conception at Paris Sorbonne back in the mid nineties and the buzz word back then of importance then was " Arborescence " or the navigational routing of a site,, to make side doors to other places in the page without having to leave by the main menu again, the possibility to navigate " horizontally " somewhere else while still searching similar content !! So in short a new button on every post for " view similar content " This would i think then take people away from more visible trending or say promoted pages to other lesser known till now invisible authors who by their choice of keyword might get lucky and fall on a whale !! or even little me !! ; - ) Steemit could be an incredible library and we just need to nail the subject navigation devices, for me the answer and key to this problem is the keywords submitted by the author !! Steem Up and On !!
This is not a bad idea. It would be something like what Amazon does, when you see the suggestions for "customers who bought this book also bought..."
I would appreciate having a feature like this.
yes, and so many other sites ... it's kind of 'normal', yet missing on steemit
hello @cryptomancer, please I know you were here when i posted my comment about the idea for a " related content ", button, one that you liked yourself and up voted me for. It seems now this character @luminousvisions has since hijacked my idea and now purports to all that it is his and does not even mention me in this newly trafficked post !! you know this not to be the case !! please can you witness this story ??
and ... I'm not much of a developer, but enough to know that to put something like this together is not that difficult, it doesn't change anything within the system itself, it's how it's displayed on the outside
it's just a matter of adding it to the template ... this is probably rather easy to do, yet ... it's missing
I really hope this gets attention, so somebody fixes this
it would make using steemit as a reader so much more enjoyable
right?
( @andraslife & @glitterfart are also francophone)

mon post est numero trois ... alors, je suppose il vera ... je suppose, je ne sais pas ...
I don't care to get in the middle of an argument between you two. I don't see any edits to the post and the screen shot was there the first time I read it, so I guess I never saw the original version. I think your idea was about having a button which would open up a new page showing the links, whereas in this sample screenshot the links are displayed right on the original post. The two ideas are complementary, just two sides of the same coin.
a button wouldn't restore the flow, as you would still have to go 'back' to his related posts page ... his idea is no good ...
never mind ... just ignore him
Ned has upvoted this post!!
well this is a good sign then as if he see,s what we see then it surely can be put to work !! lets see how this goes !! ; - )
i have tried to join your chat it seems to be locked !! michiel.van.kets is correct ??
well i have to say i am a little surprised to see that you completely changed your original post on the problem of Flow in Steemit navigation.Where i suggested that the solution to this being a " related content "button with attachments to key words in older posts !! To see that you have now reedited your post completely around my idea for this button but with no mention of the fact that it was my idea !! surely being in a community you could have at least mentioned that the idea came from @gomeravibz in your reediting of the post !! seems only fair no?? I feel bad saying this, but right now i have the impression that you have taken my solution to the problem of flow which was clearly there and are suggesting that the solution that i gave freely in good faith and with desire to exchange, is now somehow yours !! please can you at least admit to the community from where this idea that you have so brilliantly illustrated now, actually came from !! Merci Comrade !! But i am happy really you managed by this post to get attention for the idea which clearly the site and especially new and little unknown users might profit from !!

excuse me? your idea?
you just expanded on my idea, you gave a lot more details, but to put 'related posts'-links on the pages was always the idea to start with!
I just focused more on pointing out the problem, rather than the solution, because that's just step 1 ... the next post will be about the details of how it would actually work
I just didn't make the screenshot with my design proposal from the first time, because I wanted to use this post for it, so I had to post it first to take a screenshot and make my first design draft
which is why I didn't even read your whole comment, because I was too busy making that screenshot!
I'll read your comment again and if I take some ideas from it, I will mention it in the next post, no worries
I think this post shows I do support other people;
https://steemit.com/steemit/@luminousvisions/the-fellowship-of-the-dolphins
and you sir are a liar and a brigand and i shall make it known if you continue along this path of insanity i promise you !! it was my idea and you know full well !! Luckily for me you were not able to edit the comment section also, which is for all to read showing where the seed of this idea you expertly sell as your own comes from. You merely immediately changed your post realizing it was a winning idea i gave to you stupidly it would seem now !!that right there is disgraceful really. As for your concept for the fellowship of dolphins.... well clearly there are dolphins and their are sharks, i think you are more the latter !! this is truly disgraceful i have to say !! for all to see here, especially i hope @ned who i hope saw my message to him as sson as i posted this comment which i will repost here , please if you want this to be a community and fair one at that look into this matter as this is clearly an abuse....
my comment on this persons original post before he changed it from talking about a problem of flow to infact this idea of related content button which believe me was not there before at all !!
