LeoFinance Engagement Is Way More Fun With Lightning!

I'm all about the curation and commenting and when you're in a hurry you can trip over yourself waiting for the blockchain to do it's things.

Well that's gone now. I've been watching and testing the The Rollout of Leo Lightening and its pretty spectacular stuff.

Read all the details here:
https://leofinance.io/@leofinance/introducing-the-leo-lightning-db-layer-for-hive-or-speed-of-web2-principles-of-web3

But in short, you don't need to know anything about it now that it's here. It just means that things are fast and all interaction on any "new' or used Leofinance platform will be just as good as anything else.

I'm not just talking about microblogging. I'm referring to the currennt voting and commenting we all love to do. No more waiting for your comment to post and your vote to register.

I know as early adoptors that stuff didn't bother us too much but the new people who join us won't put up with that. We are not building a bounce house over here and user retention is paramount.

It may seem like boring behind-the-scenes stuff but I've been hoping for this for awhile and it's really beyond my expectations.

My curation capabilities are around 4100lp at the moment and doling out the votes has been a breeze with the new lightning layer. Kudos to the team!

Things are lightning fast now and that feels weird, but awesome!

It does seem kind of weird lol. I secretly like the fact that it proves the dev team knows what they are doing and are completely transparent during implementation. We've hitched our wagons to a great horse.

I've been hearing about it lately, but I think the last update I saw said that it's down right now for tweaking. Does your speed still seem notably faster right now?

That may be true. We are guinea pigs for the dev team so it wouldn't surprise me. But, this is really good stuff!

Yeah, I'll be their guinea pig all day every day... they obviously have it under control, and the digs look great so far. (But a SEARCH FUNCTION needs to happen! And maybe some kind of minimal notifications system for tags and new content. Just my two sats.)

It sure is lightning fast whenever you make comments. I can barely hit the "reply" button before the comment pops up!

Okay. Well, I'm on a shit Chromebook, so you could be right. It works fine for me and I'm not impatient... no complaints here. I love that they're working so actively on it in the first place-- and that the community pushes them to make it better. It's a beautiful thing.

I know, I was over on hive today and tried to vote something up and it was like 10 seconds! Pretty sure I'm just going to use LEO from now on.

It's live now? I thought they said it was delayed to work out some bugs. Cool then. Let's find out how long it takes for this comment to post!

things definitely feel more smooth and should lead to better onboarding and initial user experience with the platform, along with some uptake in existing user base engaging more with the articles
