eSteemed friends, we are excited to share next update of Surfer. It carries really neat features and improvements to continue to enhance everyone's experience. Keep scrolling to check what's new in this version.

What is eSteem Surfer

It's a desktop client you can use on Windows, Mac or Linux to surf your steem blogs and friends feed/trending/hot/etc pages, upvote, comment, read replies, do all the other major Steem functionality in your daily social surfing as well as wallet actions and of course with few added benefits: search, discover different tags, bookmarks, drafts, favorite authors, scheduling posts, ESTM mining, usage, etc.

1. Beneficiary reward decrease

We've announced decrease of beneficiary reward to 3% couple weeks ago and now both Desktop and Mobile apps are updated with this change. With introduction of ESTM and curation rewards being better, we think our users deserve more rewards, we hope to remove beneficiary reward completely in near future.

2. SPS Voting

Now we are able to check and vote for Steem Proposals. You have to open your profile page and check the link next to Witnesses link or simply type esteem://sps in Surfer url/search input field.

You will see page with different worker proposals to make Steem better. Choose what you like and vote if you are not using proxy. Or let your proxy choose anything on his/her choice if you want.

3. Downvote button

Since there is a separate downvoting pool now and you are not loosing any of your voting power which you rather could have spent on upvoting good content so you can downvote spammy posts more often now. There is a button for that next to upvote button.

4. Increased tag limit

You've asked it, we've made it! We know some other clients use 10-20 tags but we believe 7 tags are enough to select content's relevance.

5. ESTM purchase

You can now purchase ESTM with Surfer. In Mobile we have in-app purchase option to directly acquire ESTM with credit card, PlayStore, AppStore payment options. For desktop application we have added something different, purchasing with STEEM and SBD directly. We will expand this later as we improve wallet page in future updates.

There are many more things fixed and improved in this release.

What's New in Surfer 2.2.2

  • New Purchase ESTM with STEEM and SBD
  • New SPS (Steem Proposal System) Voting
  • New Downvote button
  • New Reading time indicator
  • New Tag limit increased to 7
  • New Beneficiary decrease
  • New Romanian & Malay language support
  • Improved Sponsored posts visuals
  • Improved Link sharing to our https://esteem.app

Great stuff, nice to see SPS is now being integrated and downvoting! Been using the mobile app but not the surfer as much because of the tag limit so I'll start to look at using surfer more often :) The beneficiary reward is also pretty enticing now :)

So keen to see how ESTM fairs once we have SMTs on the internal market

Initial web version has pretty much everything we need for now. Of course gradually we will add more and more features, but Surfer and Mobile app will stay priority. Thanks for feedback!

Hi @good-karma. Unfortunately I can't join all these positive reviews because I don't get a vote and I don't know what I have to do to get my work evaluated? Please explain to me what the criteria are and why my work is being ignored? Thank you.

Hi @olga.maslievich! We have encouragement program where our curators manually curate daily more than 200 posts and unique authors daily. If you are posting from eSteem apps (desktop or mobile), you should be getting votes. Although it is not guaranteed that you will be getting votes for every post, I will ask curators to not miss any posts.

Thank you friend @goodkarma! Does the percentage your curators vote on depend on any criteria?

Depends on follower's SP and maximum vote percent of encouragement program is 6% but boosting post with ESTM doesn't have this criteria or limits.

This is the kind of work that is worth doing to get people using Steem. Steem is light years ahead every other coin in this aspect. And now is the time to do it, once facebook/ instagram /Tik-tok lauches their coin, or google or amazon for that matter, it will be much harder.

Congratulations for the great work with your awesome app! Already installed the 2.2.2!! Definitively the beneficiary, the downvote and the tags are necessities for all the recent changes in the steem blockchain and a great support for content creators. My admiration for your consideration and attention with the user.
My best regards for @Good-Karma and all the team!!

Love the new post creation tab. The addition of the extra 2 tags is nice. Also being able to see my post side by side with the text as I type is really nice.

Hi.I just tried to use this and wanted to use estm points and so it directed me to steemconnect and there was no facility to copy/paste my key!

I'm just a bit bewildered and not sure I downloaded the correct thing as I was redirected to something called github? There were a list of files to download.

Do you have an idiots guide anywhere please? :-)

Hi @nathen007,
For Windows PC, you should download file with .exe extention.
For Mac, .dmg and .zip
For Linux, .deb, .rpm and tar.gz

Let us know if you managed to install those files. After install, you can use Steemconnect or Regular login option.

On steem, have crypto?

Self proclaimed community watchdogs are actually hacking and stalking people.

This group https://steemit.com/@steemspeak is ran by https://steemit.com/@fyrstikken, They are hacking people that enter this discord server https://discordapp.com/invite/sqxV63P . Once you are hacked they profile you long enough to know all of your activities. They introduce workplace gangstalking visits and bring it to your attention cleverly and discretely so only you get it. They are very covert and tricky with everything they say and do in this server. Some claim to have worked for or are working with the FBI and the NSA. Mixed with decommissioned traders and coding criminals, Its a scary mix of creepy people and their intent is to drive you crazy and deplete everything you have ever acquired in life, even your freedom.

My hacking started with them introducing ransomware that has options, dump my coin or delete my system drive. They acknowledged this to me in the server as it happened.

This hacking and stalking is done so they can manipulate the target to pump and dump for them. Threatening and Making victims wear head phones, so nobody in your household can hear thier dramatization towards you. In 2017 this server was side marked as a drama show for entertainment purposes only as an excuse to say whatever they want all the way down to killing a politician. They have a server side command called "hey asshole" making a prompt come up instructing everyone to wear headphones. They want everyone wearing headphones so nobody in your vicinity can hear them mess with you. Fystikken says its because of "mic feedback" but once your a target you get exactly why they make everyone wear headphones.

With headphones on they subliminally direct victims with very low suggestive whispers mixed into their radio shows music. Combine this with them being able to manipulate their own individual outputs sound volume, which they control on the server side, they can pick what individual people hear at any given time. They decide who you hear on the server and change the volume controls for them. They can make some really low or off for those trying to investigate. They control who hears what and know who is who.

This team will find absolutely everything they can about you prior to using their suggestive and threatening program. They Introduce pictures that mean something only to the target, inducing paranoia while they watch and listen thru all of your circumvented devices. They are very aware of what makes you tick. They know your work schedule and use it for work stalking along side of this. I received multiple threatening letters to my work and home addressed to my screen name from this group.

Fyrstikken tells people they are drafted like they did with Facebook at the beginning. He says Facebook was started by forced labor and V2K controlled slaves, just like he creates with his gang for steem and crypto. "Get to work bitch" he tells people once circumvented and intimidated.

If your an agent Investigating them, guess what? You are circumvented. They are high tech, over funded and well connected.

You want 10 tags to earn other extra tokens which is not right way, one can argue that it is causing more spamming with unnecessary tag inclusion. SMT launches soon and we think, tag increase won't be necessary because those projects will have to find other ways to attract users. We will reconsider tag increase though on our next release. Thanks for feedback
