You keep finding all kinds of things I never knew about and didn't know I didn't know about! This vessel wallet is something I definitely need to check out because I really don't like it when the Steemit wallet is buggy, as it has been the last week or so, and often all by itself.

So, thanks for the information.

I'm wondering about the number of active witnesses, though. I can't remember where now, but I was commenting on a post that there appeared to be nearly 15,000 witnesses because that's the number given on steemworld.org.

However, I was corrected by someone who said that most of those witnesses nodes are no longer in service, and that it's more like a 100 and something. They then provided this link:

https://steemian.info/witnesses

The link shows the top 400 witnesses, but after you get below 100, the majority of the rest begin to red line. So, maybe you know that (I didn't) but because you quoted the 15,000 number like I did a while back on a different post, I thought I'd pass the info along, just in case.

And I promise not to panic anymore when the Steemit wallet goes down. At least not much. :)
