It's been a few months since I started my Steem experience and coming back to steemit.com I see that the UI and color scheme have been updated and look great, but I also just discovered https://busy.org/
After a little digging, I discovered that busy.org is essentially an alternative UI/front-end for the content on the Steem blockchain. To put that another way, the content I posted before is also now automatically showing on busy.org. As is my profile and history. It feels a lot more like the FB front-end and I really like it and think I will use primarily from now on.
Furthermore, this post will now show on both, and probably any other 'alternatives' and I see this is the case with d.tube - a video delivery platform
Whoa - PENNY DROP
So I now understand a little more the true power of a decentralized content publishing channel. Essentially I can publish to ONE channel and not only do I have complete ownership of that content but readers can interact with this content on the platform of their choice. I can see a huge future here; don't like ad-supported content - read it / view it on a platform that has another payment model. Want premium features, get it on your premium service. Don't like any of the current ones, build your own.
I'm very very excited by this space, from a publishing point of view it really is disruptive and truly user-centric.
There's a good into to busy.org here https://steemit.com/busy/@busy.org/busy-v2-is-now-in-public-beta
Yes spot on, lets decentralise everything :)
