RE: @aggroed interviews Steemit's hightech wizard @gtg aka @gandalf about the future and stability of the Steemit Blockchain.
Thank you for that interview. I remember how elfspice was shouting around how fragile Steem is. I am glad to read another perspective on that.
How difficult is it a for a beginner to run a witness server? @jerrybanfield does it and he is not a developer at all, is he?
Witnesses are here to serve the platform. If one have not idea what is he / she doing, then how they can serve the platform? It's like being a Taxi Driver. If one can afford to buy/rent a car, can start the engine, turn left/right then is ready to go, right?
Well, I am not suggesting that everyone throws a couple of servers in the round just to make a few quick Steem in the process. I am talking on educating oneself about the matter in the most adequate way possible. The question is how long will it take for a person learning all day everyday? A week? A month? A year? A lifetime?
Depends on skills I suppose.
I still have A LOT to learn.
