Steem Curation Extension Announcement: New Version Staged with Voter Efficiency Graphs

in Steem Dev2 days ago


Steem Curation Extension

Hello everyone! Previously I posted this diary entry tracking my progress adding features to @remlaps' Curation Extension. We have been troubleshooting and testing these features among others, and are excited to announce that we have staged the changes to the repository's main branch (located here), and are hopeful to release the new version in the next week or two if we don't find any bugs or problems.

The main notable changes are:

Voter Efficiency Statistics

When you hover over a voter in a post, it will begin to populate a scatter plot of that voter's efficiency in the week prior to the post, and also tally overall stats like number of rewards, contributed value, received value, and the total times the voter voted for the post's author. The graph is toggleable between normal efficiency and weighted efficiency. Red dots signify other votes made for the same author. Here's a picture of what it looks like:

Footer Shading

The next feature is that the footer of a post will be shaded to reflect if it is burning rewards (null beneficiary), or promoted, or both. This is the same as the shading when scrolling in the feed. Here's a picture of what it looks like:

Total Value Display

We updated it so that the total value displayed on Steemit includes beneficiary rewards. Before, it was only including author rewards and curation rewards. Here's a picture of what it looks like:

Updated Output Language

We made it so that the browser extension features will take into account the current user's language and display in that language. We are definitely looking for Native Speaker feedback on whether the phrasings are accurate. Here's a picture with the page set to Polish:

Conclusion

We want to thank everyone who uses this extension for your continued support. We invite anyone interested to download the newly staged version on Github and provide us with any feedback you have. Have a great day!
