We all know how critical the first half hour of a posts life is. Sometimes though, you can't catch a break.
I got this recently ..
.. right after spending an hour making a long and detailed post.
So I reacted accordingly.

Type it out in notepad everybody!!
A lot of times when I get burned on a post like that I don't even re write again. Waste of time so use notepad.

Yeah, that's super frustrating.
I use stackedit.io when writing long posts.
An in-browser markdown editor, with preview window! It even saves your stuff locally and/or on google drive if you so configure it.
More details about the app.
I am not associated with whoever is developing it, I just think it's great. :)

There's two separate issues being discussed. One is when you lose the post data, the other is when you successfully post, but the site goes down immediately after, causing you to lose potential rewards.

This has happened a few time to us 😂 Luckily the draft has saved automatically!

Shit, sorry man :-(
Seems like all non-trivial posts need to be drafted in a separate client. Google Drive is good because it constantly syncs for backup.
At least until Steemit.com gets improved...

I use Dropbox Pro. I genuinely did have a catastrophic computer issue in March, and it was an absolute life saver.

Oh, we've all been there. My email loves doing this to me on occasion - usually when I'm typing a long response to something. It never happens with the "thanks", "no worries", less-than-10-word type emails. Grrrr!!!!

Sorry to hear of your recent transformation into King Kong. I hope it's temporary, and will resolve itself. ;)
The first time this happened to me, I learned my lesson. I copy my work every few paragraphs, so if Steemit goes down, I have it saved, and can paste it back in whenever Steemit is back up again. I may keep it on my clipboard, or paste it into a Word doc to save it, but I back it up periodically while I'm writing. You just never know, not just with Steemit, but with the internet in general.

A html editor/previewer can be useful as you get see all the formatting.
