Despite recent drama stemming from the Steem/EOS feud, Haejin blog, voting bot abuse (plus anything else I missed,) there is one critical area in which Steemit has improved since Steemfest a mere few months ago – site performance.

Those who were blogging in the month running up to, throughout, and after Steemfest will know that Steemit was often borderline unusable for anything more than viewing. Posting articles and comments would regularly be either rejected by the server, or simply eaten by the form and disappear into the ether. Many a pained author only realized after submission that posting a draft to publish cleared the auto-save as well. Normal operating procedure became to save articles separately in word document archives (or at least hold them in a separate tab as a duplicate) until submission could be confirmed.

Night mode, another long-awaited and relieving addition, came around at approximately the same time. I'm sure I'm not the only one expressing relief at that particular feature. 

Another feature I lobbied strongly for (to the extent of writing and submitting the code to accomplish it), autocomplete in the wallet transfer field, has also been implemented which I am sure is helping to cut down on transfer mistakes and fraud.

The bottom line is I'm pleased with what I've been seeing recently from the Steemit website. Frankly, we are all lucky to get even basic security features in many cryptocurrencies, and even holding larger market cap ones can end up with you getting "Bitconnect'ed". Steem has rather good security options and a highly functional, and recently, reliable website. I often get bogged down in pointing out what isn't work, and it's a relief that Steemit is not currently one of those things.

One area that has seen huge improvement, but only thanks to the "Steemit More Info" Chrome extension, is the "Following" interface. It's now vastly easier to sort followers in order to remove them all from a central page, instead of having to load a page for each individual unfollow. There is also more data available for you to make choices with about who you want to remain following. This would be a great thing for Stinc to integrate in the future. Check out the "Steemit More Info" Chrome extension if you want this functionality now.

I would still love to see a "filter resteem" button, though...along with more detailed values on votes on posts and comments in the drop-down box. I do not know of another way to see all votes on a post with many votes without the Steemit More Info Mod.
