RE: Major incoming changes on SteemConnect

in #steemconnect • 6 years ago

So signing in to a dapp with SteemConnect will now incur a 2.5% beneficiary cut from all content created on that dapp by the user?

Dapps can post in SteemConnect user's names? Is there no way to avoid this authority delegation?

Thanks!

    Hey yes there will be a fee for the comment and posts broadcasted by SteemConnect API server. Posting authority delegation is not necessary if you use SteemConnect just for login or if you use Chrome extension to sign transaction like Steem Keychain.

    Chrome extension is not available for my browser(s) choices, as I avoid Goolag products, and Chrome is a Goolag product. So, until Steem Keychain is ported to other platforms, it remains unavailable to me, a humble non-coder.

    "...Posting authority delegation is not necessary if you use SteemConnect just for login."

    So I can safely revoke those dapps that SteemConnect lists as having my posting authority without losing my ability to login to them with SteemConnect? SteemPeak and Busy are listed as having that authority, and I am unaware of granting that authority other than by using SteemConnect to login.

    "... yes there will be a fee for the comment and posts broadcasted by SteemConnect API server."

    Not a coder. Need a simple yes or no answer to 'Will all my content be providing 2.5% to SteemConnect when logged in using SteemConnect?', and 'How does SteemConnect gain authority to set beneficiary on my content?' if SteemConnect does not use my key to do so, or the dapps delegated posting authority? Does not revoking dapps posting authority break this ability for SteemConnect, or does SteemConnect separately have this authority if I use it to login to dapps?

    Thanks!

    Edit: please note that I am simply seeking understanding of this mechanism(s), and not commenting as to it's desirability. Only after satisfactorily understanding do I feel competent to make such determination.

    I have. I miss certain functionality my present browser choice provides, so I currently maintain my use of Opera. The variety of browsers today is a bit daunting, but that's a good price for having plentiful options. I keep several on hand, for developing exigencies such as this. 2.5% of my rewards isn't nominal to cause my migration in favor of the functionality I enjoy, as I don't spend rewards as money yet.

    Thanks!

        I yet would appreciate an answer to my comment, if you can afford the time and attention to do so. I'd appreciate it, as I expect further development to continue and increase my need to grapple with these issues.

        Thanks!
