RE: An Analysis of Lost Votes
I haven't discussed this in the analysis above but I agree with you that there should be a longer reward period.
My main reason for this is that the steem blockchain is getting to be a wider set of content platforms than just blogging. For example now there are videos.
I think we want steem to be as wide and flexible as possible to allow all different kinds of content creators to spend their time producing the best content. An an extreme example, take someone producing a 2-hour film. A seven day reward period is unlikely to give the rewards they merit.
The way I would organise this is through a series of weekly payout windows that continue through time - I think this is what you are suggesting above.
The restriction of only being allowed to vote once on any single post would be maintained.
You have fully grasped my idea !! , "weekly payment windows that are maintained over time" could not say it better !! jejejej !!
I'm new to STEMIT, I'm only 3 months old but I also want to take advantage of your post to say that it would be good if the STEEMIT website had a system that warned about the publications that followers make similar to FACEBOOK's, allowing us to quickly visualize the publications of others and get the most out of them before they "die", as well as a list of the contacts that are available but more at hand, this would make it possible to get more out of the platform.
Hi @hojaraskita. Sorry - I missed this one!
I have just started using Steemify, which is an iPhone app that tells you all kinds of information, including when people are posting, or mentioning your name.
You can also use Steemd.com (just switch steemit.com for steemd.com on your blog page, e.g:
https://steemd.com/@miniature-tiger
It's more of a blockchain style crawler but it's useful.
Hope that helps!
