Amen! I do hold out hope as there are flickers that communities are still on the radar. I can’t recall exactly when/where but I know a few months back there was discussion and some seeming progress, perhaps in one of the regularly recorded developers meetings? Then of course everything pivoted to the most recent hardfork, etc. and I haven’t heard much since. I just hope there’s at least one person on Blocktrades team pushing communities forward!
I think the original design specs were even more ambitious than your summary, incorporating who could view community content as well as post it. Truly private communities using encryption/memo keys would be incredible and along with automated beneficiary percentages for community content and things like the new recurring transfers feature enable a completely decentralized Patreon replacement!
LoL, so much for "decentralization" of development, can't rely on one group of devs who have been around since day 1 (of steem).. just saying.
We don't tho. The community pays for howo to do development, and lots of people not on blocktrades team contribute to code. You yourself could contribute. Why talk down to a group of people that have willingly stepped up to do work and dismiss so many hard working people like they haven't accomplished anything? Feeling bad about yourself is one thing, but projecting onto all these other people is lame
Say what? I was replying to the comment about blocktrades that someone else made. I don't feel I was talking down to anyone.. but ok
Yes, I used the wrong preposition and it changed the meaning quite a bit. I meant to refer to talking down about those people that have all worked hard and contributed, not "to" them. Putting down their works. Dismissing their efforts. Publicly dismissing all the work they have done and continue to do. Some phrasing like that
Yea I dare not even dream that big. I'd be overjoyed with just the basic design.
