I have several ideas. Some may be silly, it's all up to you.
Many people "live" in certain communities. I think it would be good to add a list of communities on the right. These are also tags, but it would be good if they were in the form of community names.
I think people will miss the ability to vote directly from your interface. Perhaps in the future you will need to think about how to turn your project into a full-fledged separate interface.
I know this is a drawback, but I would recommend adding at least one ad block. You would get profit from your activity and you would have more motivation. If the project becomes popular, you can use part of the profit to buy STEEM and burn it.
It would be good if you could also read your feed here. I think there are problems with this. If you could figure out how to clean your feed of reports and contests, it would be invaluable.
Would it be possible to give the reader an option in which language he wants to see the posts? Or what is the minimum length of posts he would like to read? The idea is that the reader would have as many opportunities as possible for individual arrangements.
These are all just ideas for thought :)
That would be a good thing. It would also prevent the duplication of content in many articles are written in their native language and then added with an often poor translation using a translator. This is pure poison for listings and search engine rankings.
One of the Hive condensers has added an "AI button" with which you can translate the corresponding articles directly. I think at peakd.com. Maybe @the-gorilla can "spy" there. :)
Yeah. I'm so bored of dozens of articles with the same title like "Engagement Challenge of the week XY" and the automatic lists with "Articles of the Engagement Challenge of the week XY" that I'm already starting to publish satirical engagement challenges about it. :D
The only difference: This "challenge" brings funny, creative answers. #lol

This is a good idea. Such a button would be a very convenient solution.
Overall, I have nothing against the Engagement Challenge. Moreover, I agree that a platform like Steemit should have some big contests. But in most cases, contest posts are inferior to ordinary posts written by good bloggers in terms of interest. Therefore, I rarely read them.

Most of these "bloggers" are not bloggers. They are simple upvote hunters. I've been publishing online since the late 90s. Back then. When there were no CMS, blog systems or social networks. At that time it was still exhausting in email newsgroups or self-assembled html pages.
A good blogger has no time for such challenges because he has so many ideas and article topics in his head, the day should have 48 hours.
They don't need a topic assignment like a 6th grade essay. Only someone who is as creative as a gray cement wall needs those things.
A few years ago there was an account that acquired interested parties for good content outside the Steem microcosm. For reviews, product tests or ratings of new platforms, apps or websites.
These were not judged by Steemians in upvote circles, but objectively by outsiders who had nothing to do with Steem. They were also very well rewarded.
New Steemit users also had a chance if the quality of their articles was good enough. It didn't matter how big the wallet was or what level of play aka reputation level you had on Steemit.

You got me interested. Do you have a website or do you publish on any other platforms? And I see that you sometimes post on Steemit. Do you think this platform has potential?

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, a few of them are on my to-do list which is reassuring 🙂
With the communities, my plan is to include a top navigation item "communities" which would list all of the active communities in alphabetical order (apart from the trash communities that are nothing but spam). I think that this should be fairly straightforward with the way I've structured the code.
I'm probably going to leave out voting or any functionality that requires the user to enter their key. The security implications and potential accusations of wrongdoing are something that I've seen xpilar experience.
I've included the functionality to have promoted content before every block of 5 posts. I've been able to implement the functionality today which currently looks at people who have transferred STEEM or SBD to @null or @the-gorilla account. The priority is based upon who transfers the most and it's accumulative (which is how I think null works). If you take a look at the interface, you'll see it now 🙂
I've thought a bit about a "user dashboard", potentially with a "message board" style interface. I think that we'd often visit a post, comment on it and then never return to see what other people have said. I think that it would be fairly straightforward to highlight all new comments on a post since you last interacted with it (either via a comment or a voted comment). I think there's certainly potential to do something in this space that Steemit doesn't currently offer.
I've thought about people being able to filter content by language - I haven't investigated how difficult that would be and am not really sure how I could implement it with content that is dual-language. It would probably be possible to add additional filters / search criteria although I'm not entirely sure how I'd implement them just yet 🤔

Yes, I think Steemit is definitely missing something like that. It would be nice to have important and necessary current publications "at hand", but I have no idea how to automate this.
As the discussion showed, you can still add several interesting features to your project. But don't rush, I'm sure you don't have much time for this every day :)
A slightly different question. Is it possible in some more or less easy way, maybe based on your helper curator, to make a search tool for the longest active comments. Sometimes I come across comments that are more valuable and longer than posts, but they don't get any rewards.

An interesting thought about comments - I used to do the "Top commenter" but that only really worked because it was within a single community. There are a lot more comments than posts but it might be possible to cycle through them and only keep the longer ones. I'll leave my subconscious to work on that one!

This is why I'm focusing on read-only capabilities at the moment, too.

Those are some pretty fantastic suggestions (except for the advertising... 😉)!
I would like to add a suggestion/question at this point: Dear @the-gorilla, is it possible to hide "pinned posts"? There are so many communities (like WoX... 🫣) that I don't like to visit because I have to scroll for 10 minutes to the new (unpinned) posts.

At the moment, pinned posts aren't prioritised on my interface. When I implement communities, I think that I've got to treat them differently but the idea I'm planning to use shouldn't take up more room than a single "promoted" post.
Do you remember the Steem Foods community? That was by far the worse for pinned posts - the admin had pinned nearly 100 of their own content and nobody elses. It was beyond ridiculous.

Of course I remember...
At the same time, there are still so many communities and moderators that are ridiculous. I call it "wisdom of age" (or self-protection?) that I stopped thinking about it. Your site will support me in the progression of this process... ;-)

Yes, such a problem exists. It would be nice if pinned posts had their own column.
