KH, very nice. Amusing to see you playing an old game as I have be sucked away in the world of Minecraft for the past month or so. This is after not having played any games other than Pokemon Go in quite a while. I am sorry about the piece of shit fucking cancer, I hope your mother puts up a great fight. You should start 2019 by entering every single art contest on Steemit... and as much as you can using only characters from your comics as the focus.
I know this has nothing to do with anything, but I had downloaded that Brave Browser finally. I went through to tip myself some BAT on my domain (I was just checking how it works, but I deserved the tip too), then I went through my feed here to find some Steemians with domains, I added bryanimhoff.com ( also conquestcomics.com cc : @blewitt ) to my support list. I did however kind of stop using the browser, at least as the main browser, because I am confused how this is being linked directly to that uphold.com. Which I have no doubts is a fine company, but is this not the most centralized thing in the world at the moment? If you do not have an uphold account, as far as I can tell is there no other way to receive any payments using the browser? I was about to refer some people to use it, because hey, free five bucks in a new crypto plus supporting the new tech.. but that part has kind of put me on pause. Wondering if you had used it beyond setting your account up and if you have used it, how does Uphold seem so far?
Thanks for the well wishes and support. And... you actually got me mulling over a piece for the latest Trial by Comics with that little suggestion... let's see if I hit the deadline!
I've been playing around with Brave a bit myself. I've made an Uphold account but not really used it at all yet. I also took the steps to get my main sites (bryanimhoff.com; ithoughtitwouldbezombies.com; appetitefordistractioncomic.com) set up as Brave Verified Publishers. I see you are too... so I just sent you a tip! I think it's an interesting system with a lot of potential but I've got to explore and experiment a bit more. I actually wanted to start learning and accumulating a bit of BAT tokens with an eye on being able to use them to then purchase some advertising space for my own ventures and comics. I think the biggest hurdle for me has been that the Brave browser is most fully functional on desktop so far, and I do a ton of my surfing on mobile. I'm also just stuck in my ways and haven't taken the time to move all the passwords, bookmarks, and such over as needed. Making a browser change is a big life decision! I'm not worried too much about the UpHold integration. I think with widespread use they'll obviously be able to build out a more robust and varied wallet and payment system. I get the feeling they just needed a simple trusted partner for the early stages here.
It's been on my long and neglected to-do list to learn more and do a full write up on Brave & BAT... consider it eventually forthcoming!
