    @fitinfun I do the same thing. It is frustrating when you type everything and try to submit only for it to disappear.

      I've been unlucky to lose lots of valuable thoughts that were in words form because there is no autosave feature in Steemit. There are already so many distractions at the platform and going down over and over again being the BIGGEST one. Today, I tried posting through busy.org and outcome is not very satisfactory because there was no preview available the way it is at Steemit. BBChain is paid alternative in the sense that it charges 15% of the earnings that the post makes and Esteem is only for mobile users. I did a post on it while paying tribute to DDOS attacks in my own way. Take a look @penguinpablo as you're mentioned in it.

      How do you save everything @fitnfun? Do you do it manually?

        I have a few ways. I'm working on a laptop.

        I write in LibreOffice docs and before I hit enter - I copy the whole thing into the doc below the text I wrote. This way I have all the pics and the links to them if I want to re-use later. I was not the best at this in the past, but do it for sure now.

        And -
        Before I hit "enter" on a post, I duplicate the tab and that gives me an exact copy in case my post does not go through.

        For comments, I select all and copy the text before hitting enter. I know in a few seconds if it's not going to go through and can reload, paste and try again.

        Your comment tells me I will wait longer until trying these new services if I even do. I'm very hesitant to go off this platform and learn something new. This whole issue makes it hard for me to invite the content creators I know. I want to - but I'm afraid to lose friends!
