Megathreads are a great idea! I don't have any developer stuff to talk about, but I have other steem-related stuff to talk about if thats cool.
Right now I am working hard to increase the number of great music posts on steem every day. There are two reasons for that:
(1) I am now curating for @curie's music subcommunity AND for @ocd, which means that I could be supporting as many as 11 posts per day with $20 curation upvotes. However right now there's not enough fresh content to allocate all of that money as music rewards. This is a huge opportunity for musicians.
(2) Started the BEATMAKERS ON STEEM subforum last week, still working to try and get people involved. I love the forum format, it feels a lot more conversational than steemit's frontend design. A few users have already participated on the subforum and I am hoping to grow that this week.
Both of these represent ways for musicians to monetize their work independently. All that I have to do is convey that information to musicians and I'm confident that they will flock to steem.
While it's not steem development related, it's sort of steem related. You're helping to develop the community itself! :)
Hey matt, funny meeting you here! i get your pain in trying to bring more musicians to steemit, it is a difficult job for me as well. Maybe we could brainstom on steemchat?
Im also working with curie now, except as a community builder, funny how things go right?
I'm always down! The next few weeks for me are pretty busy since I want to do the best curation I can for curie and OCD, and doing lots of big posts. But its always good to brainstorm ideas.
