Thanks so much for this. I have been on Steemit a couple months, and have learned quite a bit by trial and error. It's nice to have a resource like this though to confirm what I am doing right, and teach me a few new things.
I have been posting occasionally through busy.org and steepshot, and have become a bit concerned about the information they ask for to login. Steepshot is probably OK, since they only ask for the private posting key, but busy asks for your password to login. It's not the master key, but still seems like something that shouldn't be used on another site. What do you think? Is busy trustworthy?
Busy needs your active key, i do think they are trustworthy because they use steem connect, but personally i would prefer if they had a login option for the posting key. Any site that doesn't use steem connect i would be weary about using anything other than your posting key.
Thanks for the quick response. I really appreciate your input.
