Hello Brother Rob.
I have retested uploading the "big" file and it worked just fine, fast upload and all. The file size was around half a gigabyte. I also tested upload a smaller 5-6mb video and it worked aswell.
So i was thinking in the video section could we add some diffrent categories for people and and like search index for recent uploaded , highest rated etc .. Would be a good idea i think. Im thinking like netflix with categories and such.
Avatar was easy enough to upload.
Then i tested to populate: "Verify Account for Full Voting Weight" in the account section.
So i tested my cell phone number and country code +46 (sweden) but i just received the following error:
Error
We were unable to send your SMS. Please try including a +1 or a + plus the Country Code first before the phone number and try again. If the problem persists, please open a ticket in github with the example phone number or send an e-mail to [email protected].
Anyways i think Unchained beginning to look pretty sweet man!
Hi Bro. Earlz!
Thanks for testing man.
Thats very good to hear on the big upload (and the avatar), that we can maintain security and receive the file at the same time, as that could have been a big roadblock for us.
I completely like your ideas and agree-- with the category for Highest Rated (or trending), and Recent Uploaded, very nice ideas, yes we need those. I was also thinking of adding a "town hall", IE a way for everyone to come together in one place and discuss things (IE sensitive topics we cant talk about on social media, IE coronavirus, or whatever). (Both an instant type town hall that replaces the wallets Chat feature, and a longer term Comments type town hall that stays for users who want to talk long term). We also need to add Comments to videos! (That should bolt right on actually, since its reusable).
Im also aware that my videos are hogging up too much space in one area, simply because I uploaded them all but Im sure with these filters we can make it a good system. Right now you can type in a search term, btw.
Thanks for the compliments, Im hoping with our sidechain we can eventually take the best of the three major types of social media, and make them work in the sidechain. I feel like we are so far along already with the concept, we can do this (and also attract some c# devs to help as this is in c#).
Yeah, so on the phone number issue, checking into this now: Ok yes, I do see a problem with intl phone numbers. I had to make a change. Could you please try again now with "+46" before your phone number and see if that fixed it? On a side note, we do store the 'verified' flag as 1, but we don't actually penalize anyone yet (everyone still has full voting weight). But I think it will be good in the future for the wikipedia idea (and for voting integrity). If you could, please test some voting also, see if it behaves correctly on both videos and prayer comments? When you change your vote on a distinct object, it does flip your vote. (To show the algo, we can explain these are distinct votes per object by BiblePay Unchained Address).
On another related side note, I'm thinking that we can eventually propose to Link (or require) RandomX miners to be Social Media participants. This would give our BBP-RandomX miners more revenue. Basically what we would do is require the Unchained bbp address to be the one they mine to. Then the pool would make sure the user has social media activity on the sidechain that month, otherwise they dont get paid. Im thinking of activity like upvotes, downvotes, tips, comments, etc. It might give us a new inrush of users also. It would somewhat tend to restrict the big mining pools too.
Thanks!
