RE: Updates on steem-python, SteemData, and the node situation
So there is an issue after all with running a node? @elfspice was complaining about having problem with his.

It depends on what kind of node. Seed, wallet and witness configurations are generally working well.
The full rpc nodes however are expensive and somewhat troublesome to run.
@furion, your witness support would help me ensure I have the ability to keep my public full RPC node online indefinitely. I am going to pay out of pocket for whatever I don't raise on SteemIt, but something as simple as witness support can make a huge difference.
Btw, thanks for this kind of awareness post and thanks for SteemData.
So RPC node is just all these three combined. That doesn't sound too bad. But isn't running even one of the three getting increasingly harder as blockchain bloats? I hope Steemit Inc distributes funds towards this "issue of the tomorrow".
They're simply expensive; Full RPC nodes also work well, otherwise this site wouldn't be functioning.
