Hello @georgontech
Why do I have to enter the private key on the page and cannot register directly via steemconnect like with other offers?

Hi @barmbo,
like discussed here, I decided to not use steemconnect, as it's sort of centralizing all the power in one spot and that's really not the goal of steem.
Steem has all these security mechanisms (like different keys with different permissions) built in, so why shouldn't we use them?
Plus you can change your private keys at any time, revoking all rights from steemvotes.io. Thus I really don't see the advantage of using steemconnect :)
I'm very used to using Steem Connect. I probably would have used that if I were you but I'm not you. lol
Thank you! :-)
