Suggestion to allow users to save posts on Steemit

in #utopian-io7 years ago (edited)

Components

Steemit is a social platform built on the Steem blockchain that allows users to post blogs and articles. Users can upvote and reply to posts with comments, as well as follow other users.

Proposal

Allow users to mark a post as saved using a 'Save' button in the action bar beneath posts on Steemit. When it is clicked, it marks the post as saved for that user on the Steem blockchain. The 'Save' button changes to an 'Unsave' button to allow the user to reverse the action.

In the user's profile page, a new tab labeled 'Saved' would display all the posts the user has saved, similar to how the posts are displayed under the 'Blog' tab.

Mockups / Examples

Benefits

  • Users will be able to keep track of posts they liked
  • Users will have an easier time sharing a post they've already seen with friends
  • Saved posts will be available to the user anywhere they are logged in
