Our Hive integration is fully integrated, so once a user links their Hive account, they can keep using the platform as before, but all their votes, comments and posts are broadcasted to Hive.
That's awesome with the development on the easy sign-up and glad you've managed to get more users signed up. So when you say fully integrated, have you managed to get a new account created on Hive as soon as the user has signed up with Easy SignUp? Is there a way for that all to happen under the hood without the user even having the need to create a Hive account separately with all the confusing keys?
Btw, I tried to contact you on Discord @nickyhavey, are you no longer active there?
Hmm... I still have an account but it became a bit too much with the multiple Discords! Will rejoin the TF server now
Since we don't want to store or even see any keys, we operate with something called posting authority which is granted through Hivesigner once when linking the account, the user can then keep logging in as he is used to (e.g. with Google login or Email) and we broadcast to Hive in the background. Since we don't want to store the users private keys, unfortunately there is no way around the user storing the key himself when he creates his account, but at least he doesn't need to use the key for interacting with TravelFeed.
With all the changes, we haven't moved our old Steem account creation to Hive yet, but linking to Hiveonboard is just as good and users can link a Hive account at any time, also directly after signing up. Or if they have an existing Hive account, they can sign up with that directly.
Great to have you back on the TF Discord, will send you a message in a minute
