But is steemconnect safe to put one's key?

I was told on steemit that never enter key amywhere other than steemit...
All the apps you talk of are 3rd party apps and not official Steemit Apps

It's up to you. I use it myself, so I've judged it's safe enough to access my account via Steem connect.

You misunderstand @prakashghai. steemit is NOT steem blockchain. steemit.com is just an app on the chain and a pretty crappy one at that. Better ones include dlive, dtube, dsound, zappl, steempeak, and on and on and on.

In fact, steemit.com is probably the LEAST secure of them. But they all work the same way, and your keys are not sent over the wire on known and trusted apps, which you can tell are such, exactly BECAUSE they use steemconnect, the vetted, correct way to use such dapps.
