RE: What's With That "Featured" Post Thing?
Didn't Steem Inc said that they were not gonna focus their resources on the website steemit.com however get focused on the blockchain dev itself. with these new features it seems very contradicting on their decisions.
There are many in the community who believe that steemit.com is going to be sunset.
Anyone who attends the various programs, like the monthly Witness Chat in The Ramble, where some of the Steemit Inc team are there to talk about their activities will quickly learn that while steemit.com is not a top priority, it is being worked on and there are plans being developed for further development.
They have been working their way through the various suggestions which have been made on the Github and are looking at some of the other ideas brought forward and will implement what is feasible over time.
I believe they announced they were focusing on the site again a few months ago.
These small changes are using existing code or small things (like their update pointed out) that were submitted by the community or can be easily included in the next HF that will merge the worker proposal system.
All changes are also preparing for communities and with hivemind, more should be possible more easily.
I think their main focus is still blockchain level - hivemind, MIRA, then communities and then they are just trying to solve some of the “low hanging fruit” stuff when they can.. the easy stuff. Haha.
