You are on to something, but...
First we need an actual search and filtering function.
When you go to someone's wall, it should have a list of their most used tags to limit their posts by. Also need to be able to turn on and off resteems by them.
Then we need public and private lists of steemians to follow.
What amounts to a list of favorites.
Also we need a list of favorite tags.
If we got all that, then people could more easily find the gold in our backlog.
But, I do not know if that would work well with your suggestion.
I'm onboard with all that, too bad those that make the place work couldn't care less.
Hell, we can't even embed videos from anywhere but centralized platforms.
That is hinkey to me.
What is hinkey is the way they embed videos. It is a kludge. They have to specifically program for each instance of any they want to include in posts.
They didn't want to go the route of actually working with iframes. Allowing people to use them in their blogs can cause lots of problems. Especially phishing attacks, but instead of do the real programming, they just decided to avoid it all together.
Why would someone do that?
Shouldn't the design have been worked out from the beginning?
Oh, yeah, stinc,...thanks for as little as you can get by with,....!!
That's the breakfast of champions,...
