The problem:
Ease of use is one of the main ways to attract new users and keep them in any platform, One thing that I noticed is missing in all steem based platforms is easy access to friends.
We have the option to follow people but that list gets crowded pretty fast and as a consequence our feed gets flooded with tons of posts every time we check it. in an attempt to catch on, with a wider verity of posts and people on steem, we often miss the posts from our close friends, those who we invited personally and like to check out every single one of their posts.
I often found myself typing their name in the address bar because the other option is going through all of people I followed and finding them in that long list. obviously that isn't the optimal way, therefore, we need a solution that I think is easy.
The solution:
We need one or more friends list for easy access, it can be an additional tab or simply a list on the side.
ow, and we need an add to friends button by the follow and mute buttons.
Why should it be a core feature
Creating a browser extension to handle this task would be very easy but who have the time to create the same set of lists for every browser on every computer and in every platform they use to access steem blockchain? then watch them disappear every time something happens to their operating system, browser or extensions.
In my opinion lists should be a part of the core functions, save the data in the account and be available everywhere.
The option to make several lists will grant the users the ability to direct their attention to what they want to see and refine their overall experience using steem based website, plus, decorating will make everybody feel at home.
