RE: What are you building right now?
I'll write a post with more on that later, along with what I think the frontends need to do to bring order to all these different content types.
Thanks @jesta, as you know from our conversation in discord I'm very interested in this as well - please let me know what I can do to support whatever you propose to help solve this!
Back on topic - love the "megathread" idea - I am currently working on the first (I think?) social game to be integrated with Steem! I created a Facebook game a number of years ago - back when that was a thing - and it's mostly died off since I don't have much time for it but recently I realized it would be cool to let people log in with their Steem account and buy the in-game currency with SBD!
So far in the process I've come to realize that Steem development is in incredibly early stages and it has a long way to go to get to the level of ease of use that it should be to really encourage development. I hope I can help take it to the next level!
I plan to release the game in the next couple of weeks. I don't expect anything big to come of it, but I think it's a fun game so will be nice to see if others in the Steem community enjoy it as well.
Sounds interesting! Can't wait to see what a game on chain looks like ;)
@jesta here it is if you're still interested: Introducing WordChase - The first social game connected with Steem!
Hah awesome, really cool to see it integrated into the game like that.
Well I wouldn't really call it an "on-chain" game exactly - it's not like what peerplays is doing. It just uses steemconnect as a login and payment method.
Gotta start somewhere!
