RE: Introducing Hivelytics | An open source alternative to HiveStats

in Programming & Dev6 days ago (edited)

I notice it lists posts I have commented on under the heading 'pending author rewards'. This confused me for a minute, as at first I thought the app was crediting me with authoring the posts. Maybe I'm just particularly easily confused, but maybe you could specify author rewards for posts and for comments, just to prevent anyone else from suffering that momentary confusion, and to enable comparison of rewards from these activities.

Also, I always assign some of my author rewards on my posts to beneficiaries, and it would be nice if those amounts were tracked, as well as tips I provide or receive, so I could quantify the impact my use of those tools is having on my account on an ongoing basis. In the column to the left at the top of the report several items are quantified, such as delegations in or out, and etc. Beneficiary rewards and tips I provide also substantially affect my account, which would be nice to see there as well. Sometimes people just send hive via memo, and that is another quantity, both in and out, it would be nice to know. I haven't spammed the userbase with .01 Hive to request some attention, but sometimes folks do that and they might benefit from quantifying what they spend that way.

That's all I can think of so far. This can be a great tool to keep tabs on how we're managing our Hive tokens, and I'm sure a lot of folks will benefit from using it going forward.

Thanks!

Technically speaking rewards for posts and comments are both author rewards.

I'll look into it. But I can't really promise it. Depending on how hard it would be on the public RPCs it might not make the cut.

I think this would be out of scope, there are better tools to gather such information. And this project is mostly about rewards of your account.

"Technically speaking rewards for posts and comments are both author rewards."

Yes, but they usually are rewarded very differently, and often require very different work. It did confuse me for a minute when I saw posts by other authors listed in my 'pending author rewards', too. Breaking posts and comments into separate categories, like 'pending author rewards for posts' and 'pending author rewards from comments' would help prevent such confusion, and demonstrate the difference between posts and comments in terms of rewards. Depending on how folks perceive their rewards from commenting it might even encourage more engagement - or discourage it. I'd find it useful anyway. I didn't think it would hurt anyone to ask.

"I'll look into it. But I can't really promise it. Depending on how hard it would be on the public RPCs it might not make the cut."

I appreciate you having a look. I can't expect more than that of you. You don't even know me. If it doesn't make sense to you, you made the app open source, so I could just learn to code and add whatever I wanted if it matters so much to me.

I get it. I am happy you considered my comments and did me the favor of replying.
