Introducing Steempeak.com, your steemit alternative.

in steemit •  7 years ago 

If you haven't heard of steempeak.com yet, you are in luck.
Be sure that you read that right, it is not steem Speak, it is steem peak, like the mountain peak.
I wouldn't send you the lunatic pit that couldn't tolerate differing opinions.
They are better left to themselves to attract similar minds so we know who they are.

No, this is an alternative to steemit, and busy.
It has many, many features.
The one that caught my attention was scheduling posts.

If you recall, i was bemoaning the loss of my post.
I tagged @steempeak and their main developer answered.
@asgard walked me through the recovery of my post.

I had used a capital letter in a tag.
That is fixed in the next update by making all entries lowercase.

Once I sent him a screenshot he saw the problem right away.
Night mode had obscured the error link where my post had been saved.
He tells me that will be fixed in the next update, too.

I'm really knocked out by the number of features available.
There are account metrics.
It's not as much data as steemworld.org, but it is close, and it lets you make posts.

There is a revert button, even in markdown. If you erase something, you can go back!
Autocorrect is enabled.
One post viewing option allows a post's pics to be browsed in the preview so that you don't have to open the post to see them all.
There is an estimated reading time above your post's preview. This one says two minutes.
They don't take a cut of your rewards.
Night mode.
Pic hosting is native to the site, no need to upload them to steemit and capture the link.
They've got a discord for customer service. https://discord.gg/7M3yMN8

This really is the steemit killer.
Stinc has been hoping for that.

I hope you take the time to give it a look.
You may not go back.

Just another parallel universe, as if there isn't enough of them already.

This one is pretty comprehensive.
When i get an idea for a post i make a draft and flesh it out when i have time.
This way i dont lose post ideas between the time i get them and the time until i can make them.
Then i schedule it for the next day i dont have a post on.
Letting me stack up work beforehand.

I haven't been impressed with the others, but this one is working for me.

I guess it's all part of Darwin's theory of evolution.

Totally agree, its outstanding :-) Also stopped me from using steemplus too. And for the people with alt accounts, you can easily switch. Like you say, fully feature laden :-)

The fast switching between accounts I couldn't live without now

Thanks for the tip, @freebornangel. A nice interface for sure!

One thing they might consider is how the headline image photo is chosen for display. Steemit and Busy will choose the first photo in the post. SteemPeak is messing with my branding. 😎

Hmm, i hadnt noticed.
Im pretty sure they want to be uniform with the other frontends.
Did you mention it in the discord?

I don't understand do you have an example?

Sure....

Made another discovery after loosing a more detailed reply when checking that my links worked. Using the return button (on mobile) to the post the content was gone from the input box !

Ive lost things, too, but because i changed tabs before a draft was saved.
Now i always check to see if it has saved before changing tabs.

I don't understand do you have an example?

... do you have an example?

The links in my comment above will show my blog listing from steemit.com and steempeak.com. You will notice that on steemit (and busy) all of my non-resteemed posts use the pic of a red "Peace Out Hommies" button in the thumbnail. The steemit and Busy sites use the first pic in the post as the thumbnail. SteemPeak is messing with my branding. 😎

oh i think you're talking about videos being defaulted to being seen first in the feed?
If so that's a known issue that occured last week when we fixed some youtube / video stuff. It will be addressed soon.

No biggie, yet would be nice to be consistent with other delivery platforms.

I wouldn't send you the lunatic pit that couldn't tolerate differing opinions.

This made me laugh. I've been banned from there before so I know what you mean.

Seems to have a lot to do with what time you get on and the people in the room. The bad ones are some real assholes. Had a run in with one recently.

Yep, some of them are convinced they can do no wrong.
Reminds me of me before i got my bubble burst.
Ah well, maybe they will figure it out at some point.
