In november 2017 I (@scipio) had published the initial "invention post" regarding the UserAuthority algorithm, after which about a half year later I got into contact with
@holger80 to develop the UA code. End 2018 the
@steem-ua account & algorithmic curation began, which became, immediately after its launch, the fastest growing account in terms of individual delegators.
@holger80 has always been in control of & running the
@steem-ua servers.
I haven't had contact with @holger80 for quite some time, although I've regularly tried to contact him via Discord DMs, but no reply came back, although he kept the
@steem-ua servers going (it has been algorithmically voting continuously, despite me not getting in touch with
@holger80. In case of questions from the community, I (
@scipio) have been trying to help everybody as good as I could, despite not having access to said servers myself.
In light of the recent events of the Hive fork, I have tried to again get into touch with @holger80, in a final attempt to notify him about Hive and possible server re-configurations regarding
@steem-ua. I still hadn't heard back from him.
The past few days, since the Hive fork is active, I saw (of course) that the @steem-ua servers stopped functioning, both on the Steem and the Hive blockchain.
I hope everybody understands, I don't want to cause any confusion.
Thanks you, and Steem + Hive/Buzz on!
Kinds regards @scipio
