You deal with it or let it be?

Some say Steemit came to its end.

I am not sure what this information is based on. People ask me how or what but I don't know if it's true and I am not the person who can figure it out. My internet connection is gone for most hours a day. If it works we need it for other urgent things (homeschooling for example). So please, if you need answers search for them yourself.

Am I powering down?
I did, already started with it during the last 13 weeks of 2019. I stopped it for a while I believe it was because of some Steem Powetr Up Day. Later I started it again. I didn't understand why the powerdown went on on Hive too and didn't knew I could stop it on Hive and it would went on on Steemit. It took me weeks till a friend told me and I tried it.
In most cases this is how I get the info, some nice person tells me how or what and I try it and share the steps taken with others.

I no longer share tips with my account because there's nothing to share and that's why I changed the info in my account. I do not know if palnet exists, if the tags still work. It's the same for many communities/hives + numbers. Besides I think most who are here know way more and are longer on this platform as I.

The dapps I use have several bugs which make it hard for me to join and invest in this platform.
Peakd hardly loads with me and signing in is a problem. It's more luck if I can use it. It really looks nice with many options but if they do not load it's the end of the story to me.

The site hive.blog is so heavy I can not load it. At first I could so I wonder what caused this change.

@esteemapp was always a bit problematic to me. Heavy to load, way heavier as Partiko but a result of Hive's birth and some later changes is Partiko can no longer be used (although I write this in Partiko).

So what is left for me to use? To make it possible for me to blog?

How I work

  • I write in my notes, copy paste into Partiko to check what it looks like.
  • I upload photos elsewhere (mupload) because if not they are not shown.
  • I copy paste the links of the photos where I want them.
  • I try to post with @esteemapp although nothing loads... I copy paste my text into it, type the tags and click on publish and wait and wait and wait.
    If I am lucky it's posted. If I am more lucky a page with a whale is shown telling me I removed the post (I did not and if I am extremely lucky I find it back in my profile).
  • I try to answer replies with help of @esteemapp. With some luck they load and I can answer and with some more luck I can even send my answer.
    I rarely can load content which means on these rare moments only I can read, comment and upvote.

Working with a slow connection is no fun.
By now I lost contact with most people I knew.

Dealing with bugs is no fun either.
@esteemapp has several and so has dpoll.
If I use dpoll I need to write and copy paste too. There is no way I can edit (it was possible at the start) but I learned how to deal with it although it does take me a lot of extra time.

I have no longer the illusion those bugs will be fixed. I had some hope it would be better after the Hard Fork, so I did yesterday as I tried to sign in for hours with hivesigner and the only message I got was "error 502 bad gateway". I guess this is all there is and I have to work what is offered.


One of the messages @esteemapps sends me if I try to send my answer on a reply.

You deal with bugs or ask/hope for a solution.
Like said I gave up on it. I tried it in every way, on Discord like asked, etc but an answer/solution never came.

Pal works on hive now. They migrated some few days ago. Everything that goes on is blogged about by users and you will get info if you are able to read the trending page to know whats going on.

Thanks for your report about date time inconsistency. Somehow your device time is not being detected, that might be reason for many issues you experienced.

Partiko no longer works for me and esteemapp is pretty alright so far but yah, you do need a good network bandwidth for it to load. The hardfork that is coming for STEEM looks quite scary but hope my account is not one of those that they will transfer to community321.

What is community321?
I did not find any news about it except one person asked if they quit. You still use your account? 💕
