RE: A Full Steemit User's Guide to Steem Witnesses
Hi, there is one thing missing - hardforks. Do you know how exactly it works on Steem? Plus do you still update document with witnesses and their opinions of hardforks? If so, could you share a link to that?
Thanks, and you're right. Back when this post was originally written, hard forks were less of an issue as the features being added or changed were less consequential.
It takes a supermajority consensus of witnesses for a successful, smooth fork of Steem. Usually the new hard forks are set to activate when 17/21 witnesses in a round are running its version.
I only documented witness opinions regarding hard forks a couple times when there was a final set of consensus changes presented.
