RE: Decentralisation In Blockchains - Let's Talk About It - Part 1

in #blockchain3 years ago

The desktop app isn't loading any contnet? That must mean those creators did not post the content to IPFS. We plan to bridge the web app with the desktop app more and encourage users to use all the features more. Right now the web app is experiencing an issue with anti-virus and browsers, the site is fine its just a certificate. Right now if you want to upload, you can using the desktop app. The web app should be resolved soon

The Desktop App worked before, when release 11 was out. This has been replaced by a new release. Unfortunately no install file for Mac is provided. Last 4 hours I tried to manually package the release 12. Had to install Xcode (for N-1 MacOS release this is not straightforward), then Homebrew... and then the commands as per 3Speak readme at Github resulting in errors with one of the packages: 'electron'.

I wonder why for Mac users an install package is not provided for? Since the .tv service is not working, Mac users don't seem to be able to connect to the 3Speak service anymore, not online, not through Desktop App. Its not for me to upload video's, but for my daily curation in the music section of HIVE in which quite a few users use 3Speak. The unfortunate effect is: I can't curate any of the 3Speak posts anymore. Very unfortunate for those who use the service last days.

I do realise devs need to do things to progress the service. But what I find truly annoying is the fact a service that HIVE users do really on, is not available anymore. Added to that, one need to be a true dev to make it work. This is harming the use of this service, and at the same time it is harming HIVE. Any none-HIVE user trying to open a 3Speak video when browsing HIVE posts, will potentially be a lost user for 3Speak and for HIVE.
