A new version is available!
@armandocat/steemit-more-info-0-9-2-chrome-extension-firefox-extension
A simple Steemit extension that shows more info on steemit.com
If you use steemit.com, you may have notice that it is lacking a lot of functionalities.
That's why you need to use tools like https://steemd.com/, https://steemdb.com/, https://steemstats.com/, https://www.steemnow.com/, ...
A lot of tools!
So why another tool???
Because this is a Chrome and Firefox extension that you install on your browser, and then all the informations you need will be available to you directly on steemit.com!
Please take into consideration that this is a new project that I just started, and the features are limited to just a few so far! I'm planning to add more and more features in the next versions. Every suggestion and idea is very much appreciated!
This is the second release with some bug fixes and a few 
features added
Features
In the profile page of any account, you will see a Vote Power indicator on top (next to the name and the reputation), with the reward that a 100% vote from that user will give in SBD ($)
In the profile page of any account, you will see the number of votes that user has done today
- A new tab 'Votes' is added, where you may see the latest upvotes done or received by that user
Now it shows the estimate of the vote in $ too!
When you click upvote and the Vote Weight slider appears, not only you see the percentage of the vote, but you also see the amount in $ that upvote will be valued
- When you are looking at a post or comment and you click "votes" to see the list of people that voted that post, you now also see what was their contribute to the total reward!
Future development
I'm planning to add more features like:
- COMING SOON: Trending of up to 5 favorite tags in one page. You select your favorite tags and you'll see the list of the top trending of all the tags combined in one list. I'm not releasing this feature yet because it still has some bugs.
- A better follower page, where you can also sort the followers by date they added you.
- Notifications, for instance if somebody replies on one of your posts or comments, if you get an upvote, ...
- Maybe adding a page with some graphs of the stats of the account
- ...
Privacy - Do I steal your data?
I do not access your private keys. The only way I could do it, is if you go to your wallet page and click on "show private key". But I don't do it!
Should you trust me? Well, I believe is better not to trust anyone. That's why the source code of the extension is available on github and you can (and you are encourage to) look and study it!
The way it works is by scraping the webpage and the url of the page you are looking at to extract your username and the username of the user you are looking at. Then it uses steem-js to get informations about that user.
This process doesn't involve any private key! In fact, you can see informations of other users as well, even if you obbiuvsly don't know their private keys.
