RE: First Time Using a Steemit Post to Vent: Hours of Writing and $ Lost Due To Steemit.com Being Down. What I Learned & Why Steemit is STILL the Best Place to be Online!

[cryptogee]

I'm still shocked when I hear people creating and editing posts using the steemit editor.

I feel your pain, I've twice now lost months of work let alone a couple of hours! The tool I use is draftin.com, it's a great editor and you can create your work there, then just copy n paste it in; after a quick check hit submit and there you go!

Keep making that lemonade brother!!

Thanks for the wise advise and encouragement. Its always great to see and hear from you.

Lolz, I learned from my very painful mistakes; I lost several chapters of my sci-fi series and just haven't had the heart to start again... i will though, at some point :-)

Oh wow!

SO your still suffering from the loss!

That sucks, but at least you learned!

Learning FTW!

Call me old school, but I do my longer posts in notepad and just copy paste it. Most of my stuff is just quick photographs, so I don't need to, but I learned early on never to trust the web for editing text.

Yes maybe old school but WISE school!
