I have just deployed another set of new features for SteemWatch.

Release Notes

As usual, you can find rather detailed release notes on GitHub, but let me skim through the most interesting changes.

New Event Kind: user.follow_changed

I added a new event kind that makes it possible to get notified when someone started/stopped following/muting you. All existing notifiers support this new event, i.e. you can see in in the event stream online, on Slack or on Steemit Chat.

This then leads to getting new events in the event stream, for example:

New Login Provider: Reddit

I have already announced Reddit, but let me mention it here as well. It is now possible to sign up using Reddit! :-)

Side Note: go-steem/rpc Released As Well!

Yesterday I also released go-steem/rpc, which is a Golang client for the Steem RPC endpoint. Feel free to check it out!

What Is Next?

There are quite a few issues in the issue tracker, so I will just pick something and I will work on that. But no worries, I am thinking about how to improve the user experience and what features to add all the time ;-)

Support

I am going to just stop begging for direct support in my posts since it turned out to not be the greatest and the most successful strategy out there :-) Kudos to people that actually supported the effort directly.

In any case, any upvotes to this post are really appreciated, as always. Makes me keep going with SteemWatch and go-steem/rpc. So thanks to anybody supporting the effort in this way as well. Please consider adding @void into your list on SteemWatch, if you are using SteemWatch.

Last but not least, if you feel like supporting some other project related to Steem, or just discuss what would be cool to implement, you can join us in the dev channel on Steemit Chat. There is also steemwatch channel for SteemWatch, actually.
