RE: Why Steemit Dolphins Will Become More Important Than Whales
You are right, but in this early stage whales still decide what content gets visibility. From my own experience, when I started first mobile app initiative, tried to ask number of questions, but somehow no answers, slack invites are closed. Finally spent few days to fiddle around and checked out Steem codebase to get a feeling about API for mobile app. Now posting updates almost daily, development continues, but getting testers is crucial in start of the project, if your post doesn't get visibility then no testers, no testers no encouragement. Though when you see recent post of someone else getting noticed, shows there is still interest, so you keep going and hope once application will have all features you will slowly reach users by providing quality.
Let there be an app that offers, for starters, these basic functions:
follow
data from the blockchain - which is recorded by steemit, but not implemented yet. This would allow to have something like the Facebook feed: content of people one chooses to follow. With checkboxes to ex-/include posts/replies/votes, of course. Relatively simple filter.(steem OR steemit) AND economy
, for example. Simple filter too.Traders will have even more wishes.
There is a huge demand and only little supply so far. piston.web almost comes close.
> so you keep going
Please, do! I have nothing to offer than, hopefully, certain rumors about a certain market that is soon going to fill up, steem willing, stake your claim.
