In my opinion, It's obvious we all have to abandon the use of Steemit.com as a main frontend for the steem blockchain. I don't want to explain what's the reason to do so but, of course, you can imagine it is related with the new Steemit INC owner.
There are good and, possibly, better alternatives out there as steempeak.com, busy.org or the excellent @eSteem Desktop Surfer which you can download from here.
I am really satisfied with @eSteem in both, mobile and desktop versions, despite on the second sometimes I feel it seems to slowdown my laptop processor a bit...
Regarding Steempeak.org, it is really an excellent frontend which I use normally in different computers from the internet browser. It really includes EVERYTHING you need, tribes, communities, badges, favourites lists, stats...and lately, EMOJIS as well 😉 (LOL)...
I think that some of those "concepts" and Services need to be understood by newcomers and not technical people before deciding to adopt Steempeak as a mean for interacting with the steem blockchain.
For instance...
But there is one thing that find much more complicate to do on steempeak than in any other frontend... well, I think also busy.org has a similar "problem"...
Where do you have to click in order to see the "NEW" content, independently of your own, communities etc... "FEED"?
Nothing here?
Nothing there?
Well, actually, let me tell you, YOU CAN see the "NEW" posts created on the steem blockchain if you go to "All topics" and then, realise that there is a filtering feature on which you can click on "created"... By default, this "filter" is set on "Reward" so, it is showing all topics ordered by obtained rewards which is a sort of old Steemit "Trending" page.
Busy.org has the same problem lately, difficult to find where the all "New" list is placed...but it keeps being simpler than steempeak which I think is a good advantage.
We should make the things simpler if we want more old and new users to make use of "alternative to steemit" frontends. Don't you think so?
