RE: Community Service Announcement: You Control Steem. Vote for Witnesses.
I won't tell you who to vote for because half the time I'm not even sure.
For most users, the hard part isn't clicking the upvote button, the part that is made difficult is knowing what witnesses to choose. It isn't so hard to know witnesses and talk to them now, but hopefully this community would be too big for that some day. For the purpose of hardforks STEEM needs stake weighed voting polls that show exactly how everybody would vote. There doesn't need to be any rules for how we respond to the polls, it would just be a useful recorder of information, especially to see which witnesses plan to upgrade.
That's a great idea. For now, we'll have to go through whatever they've published. I think it's safe to assume if a witness hasn't come out against a hardfork proposal (either on Steemit or github) then they are going to implement it. I already know of a couple witnesses who have said they will not implement it in it's current form.
To see if a witness will "implement" the proposed hard fork, check https://steemd.com/witnesses, there is a "version" column. If you see one is "0.17.0", it means that one has upgraded (actions speak louder than words).
I took a look at that page, but must admit I don't understand much of what is there at all.
Very few witnesses are on version 0.17.0 though ...
Does anyone have a link to a post where the columns are explained?
I would like to understand 'Approval', '%', Miss', 'Reg fee', 'Feed', 'Bias', 'APR'
@pfunk has a post: https://steemit.com/steem/@pfunk/secrets-of-the-blogchain-a-guide-to-using-steemd-com
By the way there is another page: https://steemdb.com/witnesses , perhaps it's clearer?
