Steemit.com UI Release 0.1.170121
We are happy to announce the release of Steemit 0.1.170121!
Here are a few noteworthy key upgrades for your experience on steemit.com.
In-browser Push Notifications (with @-mentions support!)
We have a new push notification backend which allows for user mentions directly on your desktop. It supports the standard notifications as well as mentions and transfer alerts.
Your browser will ask for permissions. (Currently, only Chrome & Firefox are supported)
Improved search engine results for profile pages
Your steemit.com profile page will now have greater visibility in search engine results. Your unique meta data is compiled from your username and profile fields. Steemians with detailed descriptions should see increased traffic via search engines.
Social Sharing
These refinements also trickle down to social sharing. For example, sharing your profile page on twitter will now contain your unique brand/profile data.
This is what I like to see!
I think mentions should also be added on the top-right pull down menu, along with feed-blog-comments-replies etc, with their own red notification, for consistency.
These are awesome additions. Many thanks.
Why are people upvoting this comment? There is nothing to upvote. Use your votes better.
Noted. LoL Removing mine.
I flagged my own comment. Disagreement on rewards.
:D ^^
LOL and I insert this LOL very carefully given the comments here and shall UV no comments also but I shall insert a smiley at the risk of flag being thrown outside of chat environment . Noted.
(:
@steemitblog the notification on my android is leading me to /undefined
The notifications are great. Mentions take you straight to the post!
This post is much better than last one. Good job.
Excellent! I just got a browser notification for a mention I would have otherwise missed. Much appreciated! :)
LOL I accidentally rejected to give steemit permission how do I enable it??
Changing the permission of browser notifications
In Firefox
Click the little circled (i) between the back button and the green lock.
Under
Permission, click theXnext to it to make it forget that.When you reload Steemit's page, it will ask you again about permissions.
In Google Chrome / Chromium
Click on the green lock, find
Notifications, and change its state to the preferred one.Thanks
If using chrome, click on the little "Secure" part that sits just to the right before the address bar in the browser.
Thanks
In Microsoft's Edge or Internet Explorer, close the browser and load the page in decent Browser. :)
ROFL

Now to test the profile meta data on social networks...
It's working :
Good work!
That's a wonderful news. I didn't noticed the @-mention support stuff yet, which makes it even a better news! Thanks for pushing this development!
Testing notifications in nested comments: @the-ego-is-you
Works perfectly! =) ^^
Edit: Works great even with nested comments.
Does it work in nested (deeper tier) comments as well? Maybe we can check?
For example, @andu do you get a message about this?
I did but on esteem as I'm afk
I see, can you test @ for me on @lemouth (if this didn't work) comment for example?
@the-ego-is-you here ya go buddy
Already tested, but thanks!
It looks great! :)
