RE: It's Monday 16 March 2020! Happy New Week! Drop a link to an undervalued post for chance of resteem upvote and tweet

First, my recommendation: @wakeupkitty.pal's It's Real, which opens with this awesome premise:

The first manipulated and most healthy fetus in the world. This one could resist every disease, heal itself and had eternal life without getting old. It was a way better invention as the AI and robots many were involved with these days.

Second, I'm trying to switch from Steemit to Steem Auto, but it freezes up on me whenever I enter my password. Nothing happens.

I saved my password in chrome. I copy/paste. I watch for accidental spaces. I never understand.

@Raj808 has tried to walk me through this, but the trouble seems to be using the right password, I think, and I've tried every password I've saved for Steemit.

So I'm still not using Steempeak.

Sort:  

I go to steemauto.com; Steem Apps comes up with this message:
The app steem.app is requesting access to view your current account username.
So I enter the password. And NOTHING happens.
The Chrome extensions always scared me off in the past with their permissions to reconfigure stuff, but I decided to take a deep breath and grant it whatever it wants, and still nothing happens.

For a long time I resisted apps and extensions because of this message:

Please leave Steemauto if you don't understand how it works or what it does. You could harm your Steem account if you change settings that you do not understand.

Finally, I tried it, and now the "harm" has apparently been done.

Always have your passwords saved in a word document Carol and back that up!

The password you need to use for that keychain thing is the private posting key.

Also, it needs to have your username in the top area like this:

So where it says 'Steem password or private key' that is where you paste the private posting key, and the best way to make sure that you make no mistake in the process is to delete any key (you see where the dots are in the password field) that is already in there manually, i.e. just use delete key in there until it is completely blank and then paste the private posting key and hit get started 🙂

Believe it or not, my passwords are in a Word doc, and I've tried every blessed one of 'em, but none get me in.

I'm in!
I posted via Steempeak!
I have NO CLUE what I did different this time around.
None.
Just, somehow, this time, it worked. Thanks Raj!
