Stats! Tasks! World! [contest]

(Edited)

Those of you who were on that 'other' blockchain from which the Hive blockchain forked on 20-Mar-2020 will likely remember one of the very best tool-sites created for exploring that other blockchain in a simple, easy manner: SteemWorld.org, created by @steemchiller. Through a strange sequence of events, he did not follow us to Hive and his tool has really been missed by many of us. I would be a wealthy woman now if I had a nickel for every time I'd been asked if there was a site similar to SteemWorld on Hive! For a long time, there wasn't one.

Fortunately, the kickass project @peakd took up much of the slack by adding even more features to their already-awesome front-end to the Hive blockchain. Namely, they added the ability to view & make delegations from with the Wallet, to claim account creation tokens, and much more! So, I have hardly missed having a SteemWorld alternative on Hive, for the most part. Thank you, @peakd!!!

Then, one day, a site appeared, cobbled from some old code! It worked great for a while until it was replaced by a social-awareness banner; which was cool, at first, because the site always worked after a couple of refreshes, but then that stopped.

After a bit of time passed, another SteemWorld-clone appeared, then another one, and now there is a third one available! But, which one is the best...? That is where you can help, and maybe win some HIVE in the process!

So, we have three sites:

🔸 https://hivestats.io

🔸 https://hivetasks.com

🔸 https://hiveworld.app

The first of these (HiveStats) is being developed by the @leofinance team and they appear to be proactively adding features to the site! 🙌 The other two (HiveTasks & HiveWorld) were setup by developers who appear to wish to remain anonymous, as there is no information on the site about the dev or project that created them. 🤔 So, I would be wary about entering Keys into those other sites! ⚠️

Here is where the fun comes in. I already know which of the sites I like the best and second-best. But, I want to hear from you! As incentive, I am putting up 20 HIVE in prizes for the folks who write the best review of these three sites and tell us which one you like the best! The best review will win 10 HIVE, while 2nd & 3rd place entries will net 5 HIVE each! Here is how to participate:

RULES:

  • Write a post. You are welcome to pick your favorite site among the above three and tell why you like it more than the others. Or do a "pros -vs- cons" of each of them. However you wish to do it is fine.
  • Consider including a "wishlist" of suggestions if there are features that you would like the devs to consider adding, just in case they're reading the posts. (Which I hope they will do!)
  • Place a link to your post at the bottom of this post. This is required if you wish your post to be seen and counted in the contest!
  • The deadline for this contest is when this post pays-out.


The whole idea for this contest is thanks to @wesphilbin who made this suggestion in Discord recently:

What about a contest??
Use the three different sites, to see which one works the best... and why?

So, be sure to thank @wesphilbin for his great suggestion! 😃 Since it was his idea, he has been invited to help judge the entries (even though he is one of the least-judgemental people on the blockchain... 😂). I might ask someone else for their input, too, we shall see.

So, ready? Set! GO! 🏁

 😊

I used hivetask until the ads. When it became to annoying with disable your ad blocker messages, I stopped cold using it. Between what info Leo Finance provided and peakd had the annoyance factor took hold and I stopped using them. I don't do Ads.

🔸 https://hivestats.io I like it for the APR, unique to them, they also have a couple of charts I like to look at but mostly I use it for the APR and getting my Reputation number to the third decimal place.

🔸 https://hiveworld.app Is new to me, a quick look, and noting that it is the 7 day top format, (Which I much preferred over the link/ad format), may be visited more often by me as I have always liked the Account Operation section, and the quick look of the Rewards section. (although that is also available on hivestats.io). It has now been bookmarked by me.

My own conclusion I will still use peakd, hivestats, and continue to look at hiveworld to see if it remains a viable option.

NOTE: Had hivetask asked, I would have done like I was doing for steemchiller and provided 1 Hive a week for its use.

Thank you, but I really don't know what I would add to it in a post. I will try to mention hivetask, and hiveworld in my Monthly Progress report post in a couple of days. I do mention hivestats (LeoFinance), and peakd when I do my monthly reports. I feel people should know where I get the information.

I wasn't really entering into the contest. It is a nice prize but I did want to put my opinion forth, and I really did not know about the hiveworld one so I appreciated the post.

I am sure that there will be some great post for the contest, and I appreciated your comment about making a post. I did not feel your comment to be disrespectful at all. I should have mentioned in my comment that I was not planning a post.

Excellent post @thekittygirl, and I am looking forward in the entire Hive community of someone who is a developer coming up with the same project as SteemWorld.org. I do not blame @steemchiller for his decision though under those unfavorable circumstances.

I was hoping for the same brother; an open opportunity to not only learn, share ideas, but also... a space for all of us to interact...

Oh... and prizes!! 😊
