I think it's a really big mistake that they will not open source it. I can also see how a longer-term plan in @dan's head probably involved things like I have talked about, the code being on the chain, voted on, like github but with stake weighted votes and no ultimate administrator but coded in settings for a win or lose of a fork/branch, ''self hosting blockchain' I call this.
Reading this message I sorta want to get in touch with him and see if he has a new project in mind that needs coders/testers/administrators...
Greetings Loki.
@officialfuzzy gave his thoughts regarding the leaving of @dan in a post yesterday called....Reading between the lines...?
Thank you for giving your thoughts on the matter of 'open source'. Cheers.
Let me know if you find out. Enough said.
yeah. Steem is so much better than any social net or cryptocoin out there. And still there is so many things to gripe about. The competition is coming so hopefully they see the sense that they can stay in the game if they switch from corporate to nonprofit... and still make bank. This is the issue. I'm staying in the crab bucket only because at this point no other place is as cutting edge. Give it a couple of years. But in that time, Steemit, Inc. has a chance to stay in the game.
