RE: KEYCHAIN INTEGRATION NOW LIVE ON STEEMPEAK.COM

in #steempeak6 years ago (edited)

It's nice that you guys have integrated the keychain...except it still only supports Chrome.

However, it's really not so nice that now you don't load up comments by default. This will discourage users from reading and upvoting comments when they read a post.

The design of the popup to read posts is also questionable. It cuts off a chunk on the side of the viewable area. One of the nicest features of SteemPeak was the huge display of photographs (well, except ones posted to busy.org, which don't load), now that's cut down at least a bit. This may be less pronounced for people that use SteemPeak on large monitors at max...but I mainly read posts on my second monitor, in portrait mode, or on only half of my main monitor, so I can keep an eye on the markets. To me, it just seems like a poor design decision to cut out a section of your viewable area so you can see the greyed out feed in the background.

You also didn't update the URL to that of the post when viewing it. This is annoying for when you want to share the link. Thankfully I figured out that you can get the link from the top when I needed to share a link to a post earlier, otherwise it would have been a slightly bigger hassle.

Edit: A side effect of this new setup of reading posts is that when I view an image that didn't load because the post was made on busy.org, when I click the back button, I have to find the post again, as it does not go back to it. Tre annoying.

Sort:  

Hopefully Keychain will support more browsers in the future (there is already a request to have at least a Firefox extension).

Also we disabled comment loading by default to reduce the load on the steemit API. But keep in mind that you can always turn off the new slideout panel in your settings. This will restore the old behavior and the post will open in full page with comments too.

Can you also share a sample of pictures posted on busy.org that does not load for you? I'm pretty sure to have seen a good number of them while browsing.

Thanks again for you feedback so we can try to improve the new release. Also feel free to join us on Discord (https://discord.gg/6hCAcVp) so you can give more feedback :)

Keychain supports Chrome Opera and Brave so far, and the update to support Firefox is currently being reviewed.

Thanks for the feedback... i think you'll find that we are very quick at reviewing them and acting on feedback. We are known for this. Please jump on into our discord you're obviously passionate about things so we'd love to have you. I think you're used to sites that when they make a change they are slow to fix something that's not working. That's not us.
