What happened to steemit?

in #steemit7 years ago

Oh yeah now that was one really hard fork. This is the first time I have ever experienced anything like that on steemit.

Yip... steemit became a ghost town, as no one could post and everything was set to 0%. Although this was not the worst hard fork I have been through, it has still been hectic.

Many people look at me like this when I try to explain it to them... but then when I use the big words to explain it I get this reaction:

So to all those who are still asking..... well here is my answer: Stuff happen all the time, and no one really knows why ;)

All this technology scares and confuses me. The best thing to do is hide until everybody stops posting forks on my feed and I can get back to creeping on bitcoin posts as normal.

Finally everything has been stable now after the HF 20 so no more ghost town feeling hahah : )

Oh @dragonslayer101, 30 years of software development and I have never seen a fiasco like that. It doesn't need to happen. Could you imagine Mastercard or Visa customers standing at the cash for 48 hours or longer waiting to use their card? I was horrified and now I hear it's not the first time. Yikes! I'm glad it's over.
