RE: My thoughts on the recent Steemit.com changes

in #steemit7 years ago

I'm glad to see Steemit Inc. update the Steemit UI, but I'm honestly a bit mixed about how I feel about it. Sure, I like the confirmation when transferring SBD or Steem, but I miss being able to see how many views a post had. As for the changes in ow to change the post rewards, having it in the Settings is fine; most people won't change them much, and it only takes a few seconds extra.

Sort:  

With the post reward settings I agree that it isn’t too big of a deal because like you said there isn’t a need to change it often!

The page view is the one that baffled me the most because I liked seeing how much traction a post got. Sometimes moreso after the post paid out and seeing it had thousands of views, but only received a few dollars.

Yeah, it was great to see when posts had picked up lots of views, and you knew that those posts indirectly counted for the success of Steem, since they must have gotten a lot of traffic from other websites.

You hit the nail on the head! There is only so much traffic that can be picked up on here by Steemit, but sometimes some posts would go viral on twitter or Facebook and this was one way to tell!
