Why is Steemit.com Homepage now using Significant energy?

in steemit •  5 years ago  (edited)

Just noticed this message today. This kind of message can't be good for adoption.

My Safari browser is straight telling me to close steemit?? I have seen this error before on certain posts after all the bots flood the comments! Maybe it is my bad, I got a lot of windows open, but I figured I would post it for posterity!

I highlighted the error in red below! I think we need to streamline a bit!

Note: The Error went away as soon as I posted this! That is good news, probably just a glitch!

    Maybe use Brave browser to eliminate all those nasty ads Steemit is running nowadays.
