It's official frens, the new Publishing UI is now live! If you've been keeping up with the updates from LeoFinance, then you'll know that May is a month for bug fixing. We released the Project Blank UI on May 1st and it's been almost 4 weeks since then.
That's a pretty short period of time, but it's felt like an eternity! This has been a hardcore month of triaging bug fixes and deploying to the UI.
We've actually deployed a new UI update on a nearly daily basis since the new UI went live. A big shout out and thank you to everyone who is opening Bug Report tickets on Discord / writing posts & threads using the #feedback hashtag.
It's been a long journey and there is still a lot to fix!
The All New LeoFinance Publishing UI | Create Long-Form Like Never Before
The new publishing UI is a bug fix disguised as a feature. We had the barebones publishing UI live for launch but it wasn't fully developed. We knew this but pushed forward on rolling out the UI on May 1st - as promised.
Since May 1st, we got a lot of feedback. Especially related to the publishing UI.
There were so many bugs and so much great feedback that we decided to package up all the bug fixes and feedback and just rewrite the whole publishing UI.
If you visit this now, it's a far better experience than it was before. The UI is cohesive, organized and decluttered.
We still have some work to do with the Schedule post infrastructure and Drafts infrastructure. If you use those, please do so at your own risk for the time being.
We need to roll some significant updates out to get 100% confident in posts not getting lost. So PLEASE keep a second copy of your drafts somewhere just in case until we roll the full backend out for the publishing UI.
Long-Form Got an Update!
If you visit https://leofinance.io, you'll likely notice a brand new tab on the left-hand side. It's titled "Articles" and has a blog post icon next to it.
The #1 question asked since the UI launch this month (outside of "Wen") is: is long-form content dead on LeoFinance?
A resounding NO. Long-form will always have a place. The UI is heavily threads focused for a reason but Long-Form is intended to be married with the experience and work cohesively with short-form.
As we said, we rolled everything out quickly in raw beta version. The goal was and is to get as much feedback as possible so that we can update the UI and get bug patches + new features out quickly.
Feedback is a centerpiece to LeoFinance's Development. We love getting your feedback and we always design with the end users in mind.
As you test out the UI, please continue to give us feedback. As I said - we're at a near daily pace of updates to the UI being rolled out. We're working around to clock to improve the UI/UX this month and then get back to delivering on shiny new features for everyone.
Let's make the smoothest, fastest and most enjoyable Web3 experience on the planet, together.
P.S. Ad Revenue is off the charts lately. Great work to everyone in the community. Keep cranking out Threads and Long-Form and we'll have some massive updates on the Ad Revenue model in early June. This is going to get crazy.
