So I will have to wait ?
For a chance to join the VYB Stewardship Board (VSB), yes.
There will be no direct benefit to members of the VSB. They will simply be allowed to 'vote' on various questions related to how the community is to be organized.
The redirect from Hivesigner just freezes on Firefox.
There is no requirement that you use the www.vybrainium.com front-end. So don't worry about it if it's too hard. (I would still suggest you try Hive Keychain, though.)
Some tribes penalize people who do not post from their front-end. VYB does not do that.
When trying to establish the VYB Stewardship Board (VSB), we wanted a straightforward metric that demonstrated an individual's potential commitment to the tribe. Using the VYB front-end meant they were doing more than just adding the #vyb tag to their posts. That demonstrated a willingness to 'check out' the tribe in more detail.
At the current time, the front-end offers very few advantages over more advanced front-ends, like PeakD. (In fact, I am currently using PeakD for this reply -- I find it easier to use and I like its features.)
If and when we expand the VSB, we will likely be looking at other metrics.
