SteemX Development Updates - Word Counter, Read Time Estimate & Reward Option Bug Fixes.
Hi everyone,
We are excited to share some recent updates we have made to improve the posting experience by SteemX on steem. These changes were inspired by valuable community feedback, specifically a report from @sergeyk. thank you for pointing out these issues.
Word Counter
A live word counter is now integrated into the post editor. This will help authors keep track of their content length while post writing.
Estimated Read Time
Alongside the word counter, you’ll now see a reading time estimate. It helps readers and writers know how long an article might take to read.
Set Reward Option Bug Fixes.
Previously, when selecting a reward option, the button label would update even if the user didn’t press Confirm. This caused confusion and sometimes led to unintended selections. We have fixed this issue so that reward options are only applied after pressing Confirm. Closing the popover without confirming will now leave the previous selection intact.
