Charles, all of this scientific/academic rah-rah is for naught if the releases are crap.
This current go-around with the Flight download page is very disheartening.
What prerelease testing is being conducted? Are IOHK developers testing their own work?
If the answer is yes, it is well past time for commits to be formally tested by an independent test crew with scripts before code is released to the production server. And load testing must be included as well.
The ability to scale, not only wallet download and use, but the main application as well, are essential to adoption. Many fine applications has been ignored by users when the UI is infuriating and/or the app is well known as fragile.
Yea, I’ve been vocal about the wallet for a solid two years. But I also roll up my sleeves when the heavy lifting is needed.
It is damn discouraging to not be able to even download the product when asked to pitch in.
