Open Letter To Busy.org
I started to use Busy.org right after I've registered to Steemit and found out that the high life is over, the 15SP credit was withdrawn and my bandwidth is limited. This was in January 2018. Having limited bandwidth made it impossible to post when I wanted to, so i needed a plan B to make it work. That's when I turned to Busy.org.
I was forced to make drafts, have my post ready in case Mr. bandwidth allows me to post. It worked well, made me more organized. Drafts are my favorites ever since because I can do them whenever I have time or an idea for a post.
I had like five draft in my draft folder last night, one of them finished, ready to be posted when the time comes. This morning when I wanted to post it, This is what I had in my draft folder.
Yes, you're right, I had no drafts. What's happened? Your guess is as good as mine. Where are my drafts? I have no idea. Now I have to redo all of them, which means a lot of time.
@busy.org, this is not funny at all! Dapps need to be reliable, I need to know my work is safe and that I can trust Busy.org. I can't afford to lose my posts.
Whatever happened, I hope it's a one time thing and won't happen again. I like busy and want to use it in the future.

oh shit, i looked into using busy.org but this sounds like a mess!
Actually it wasn't their fault, Steemconnect had some problems and that caused it. It works fine now, drafts are back :)

Thank you.
A year ago I used to post with busy.org. And their Drafts was one of the main attraction. Now I use eSteem for drafts, it works fine so far.
In fact, there are a lot of tools for steemit, but actually all they have drawbacks.
And yes, I know your feeling... Do you thin you can get a feedback from that guys?
I am using both dapps and it turns out it wasn't busy's fault, it was a Steemconnect error. Later on I could not log in to my account, others had the same problem but it's fixed now, everything is fine, I got my drafts back :)
Oh, cool. By the way I also had troubles today with Steemconnect. Good it is fixed.

When I was writing posts in advance I used to save them on a word sheet. I didn't trust drafts right from the beginning.
It turns out it was a Steemconnect problem, not busy.org's fault and not things are back to normal. I got my drafts back. I'm using yahoo mail drafts when I want to write something longer, for many reasons, but these posts were with photos. Anyway, let's hope it won't happen again. This was a good lesson for them.
ooh...that sucks...! I use to save everything in a word sheet because, first, I want to have a copy of all my posts, and second, I do not rely entirely on something that I can not control..LoL
I see that you post a lot with esteem yet, are you using both alternatively or something like that ? We also have drafts on esteem, that's so very handy !
but as said, I make a copy as soon as there are important things or enough long text I don't want to loose..because it can happen anytime, and I don't want to feel sorry and to search someone to be responsible for, this is much more a waste of time for me than to copy paste on a Word sheet..😄
I'm using both busy and esteem.
Oh no! That happened to me as well. I shifted to Steempeak and never looked back.. but, only on PC.. mobile doesn't work as well.... I never have a problem with bandwidth though.

Bandwidth was before HF20 was implemented.
Now I can't log in to busy.
I just gave a try to busy few months ago but to be honest i didnt like it.
I remember when you recomended me the esteem. It was good but many times it became frozen or how they use to say.
But now i am fine with partiko. Maybe i will try again the esteem if i will have a desktop but since i started here on steemit i am just useing my mobile. And for mobile i think right now the parriko is the best even it doesnt gave a big vote like a esteem but also it doesnt have beneficary percentage. 😊

It turns out it wasn't busy's fault, it was a Steemconnect problem, followed by a bigger one. i couldn't log in for a day or so. Now it's fixed, I got my drafts back and was able to log in.
These things happen, I understand that. Good thing there are so many dapps each of us can pick what's her for him/her. :)
Ahhh maybe it was that time when the steemit was under "attack" You didnt saw a post about it?

I know about it but this has nothing to do with it. Steemconnect has done something that has affected drafts and logins. I wasn't able to log in for a day and not only me, many users were in this situation. But it's all good now.
