SteemPeak Release - Update v1.14.15 - Improved NSFW Setting and 2 New Tribes

in #steempeak5 years ago

A new version of SteemPeak is now available. With this release we have 2 new tribes and some new options to configure how NSFW contents are displayed (or not) on SteemPeak. As always I'll try to do a small recap on these features and the other improvements included in this release, hopefully without forgetting anything important ;)


The new release is now live at https://steempeak.com

1. Improved NSFW setting

Starting with this release there are now 3 options available:

  • Hide: posts and tribes tagged as NSFW are completely hidden. From now on this will be the default setting for all new users and when you are not logged in.
  • Click to Show: The post are display but the preview is hidden. The user can click to reveal the post content
  • Show: The content is always shown.

Also it's now possible to 'lock' the NSFW to hide and store this setting directly in your account profile metadata. This ensure that to 'unlock' this setting the user must be able to sign a transaction with the active key. This should be especially useful for parents that create accounts for children and give them only the posting key.

2. Two new tribes

We added two new tribes: SonicGroove and DPorn.

3. Display post URL in pop-out preview panel

I finally found the time to rework how the post pop-out panel is handled and now the post URL is displayed also when you open the post preview. Maybe it is not clear from the description but an image can help here :D

4. Show STEEM payout in Tribes pages

In the tribe page now the STEEM payout is shown near the TOKEN payout. This is a suggestion by @themarkymark ;)

5. Autoplay 3Speak videos when you open the post

3Speak has recently updated the embedded video player and now when you open a post with a 3Speak video it will automatically start.

- Improved NSFW setting
- Two new tribes: SonicGroove and DPorn

- As always some minor bugfixes and improvements

WITNESS

Now's probably a nice time to remind you that we run a witness server to help process the blocks for the Steem Blockchain. You can vote for our witness so we are in a position to process more of them.

Vote on out profile page: @steempeak
Vote on the witness page: https://steempeak.com/witnesses

This works for all witnesses BTW

  • Using Keychain: You just have to click and approve the transaction
  • Using SteemConnect: You'll need access to copy paste the Active Key at least

I believe This change isnt just for parents to be happy with steem we are also hopeful (though there is no guarantee) that we will be viewed more favorably by system administrators whose job it is to block (or not) websites on their networks for work, schools, libraries and maybe even some countries etc. Unless logged in they should see a lot less issues that would cause us to be blocked.

If they dig deeper they can see they can instead block the image/video repositories, and generally that's what we have thankfully seen is steempeak has not been blocked so we are just thinking ahead.
... in the end we hope we can work with them to resolve any issues and let our users use our site on their network. Their internet source is their property their network and they get to decide but we hope they talk to us first and we can work through it. We are aimed at popular content creators in the long run so often those fans are young and using wifi they didnt pay for that has rules.

But also it's more than parents and system admins... there's just a lot of people who want all 3 of these options and it solves all the scenarios nicely we believe.
Love to know if it solves any issues you have and if you'd now give your kid an account with just the posting key?

This ensure that to 'unlock' this setting the user must be able to sign a transaction with the active key. This should be especially useful for parents that create accounts for children and give them only the posting key.

Fantastic idea.

Credits for this go to @jarvie and @justineh who discussed the idea and shared it with me ;)

It poses something of a dilemma for those ethically or morally opposed to porn.
I got an airdrop and wasn't sure what to do with them. Burning would just increase the value of everyone else's tokens. Selling would hurt the price, but then I'd be profiting. (I could sell then burn the STEEM, I guess); in the end I staked them and delegated to @noporn4u.
If it's going to happen, and they choose to give me some influence over the content, best that influence is used to penalise any real nasty stuff.

Fantastic improvements... Thanks for being the best at what you do!

Thank you ;)

Good catch about parents lock with active key on hiding NTFW for children accounts! Although I'm pretty sure most kids already know more than parents do, when they are pretty young. :)

I'd like to suggest a little extra information on the voting bar: the current voting power, which is very useful whenever you cast any vote, and I see the condenser also has it now.

I think the VP for Steem should always be included, and, if the user is browsing through a tribe's posts, then the VP for that tribe's token would be really useful too.

One could vote on more than two tokens, if there are multiple tags included for tokens that the account has staked in, but unless you put them in a tooltip window, like the pending payout, it could be too much information to go over at a glance, and user needs a clean voting bar, so he / she can vote easily.

Thank you very much for the suggestion. I'll try to improve the voting panel in one of the next release. I've really not worked on that for months now :D

Displaying the URL is a welcome improvement for me. That’s one thing that annoyed me more than somewhat.

Is there a mobile app, or are you talking about viewing the website in a mobile browser?

Mobile browser, a mobile app is something we are still working on.

That’s awesome, @asgarth! I tried Steempeak on the mobile browser and I have to say it’s the best experience I’ve had so far on mobile. It’s much better than the other mobile apps I’ve tried before. It’ll be great when a real mobile app comes out.

Can you allow native embeds of LBRY vids?

Posted using Partiko iOS

Do you have a sample post that I can use to check this?

Hi there! I don't have one because I can never get their vids to embed or to upload to DTube. Here is a video from my account on the platform. It just turns into a link.

If I try a generic iframe markup I get and "unsupported" error.

I was told - but I forget by whom at this point - that each front end had to enable native embeds. I've tried Busy.org, Steemit and SteemPeak, but none of them work.

I opened a ticket to keep track of this request and I'll try to understand how to make it work. Not sure I'll be able to focus on this for the near future, but at least I will not forget to check it at some point :D

Wonderful! Thanks for having a look. It would be a good to have a decentralized video hosting platform other than DTube. It is very, very fast at serving videos.
