I would really appreciate taking advantage of my rigs Hashrate, Prior to an Algorithm becoming popular, and completely mainstream...
When an algo is possible to use on SMOS, it's mainstream, by definition.
Good point...
Hive OS Owner wrote something interesting before and i fully agree with that

When you have some new algho, new miner, new coin, some poeple want to add it ( there are many requests every day).
... they are saying it is most profitable.... atm ....
OK, but when i add it, it will become totally unprofitable as many people will start using this miner and diff will skyroof

So the result for simplemining looks like that:
1. i am adding all little miners for new alghos for all those "best profitable coins"
2. few hours after that coin is no longer profitable
3. Miner lays in simplemining forever as i am not removing miners due to inconsistency trash

Thats why i am adding only miners that are wanted by most people and not all of them

People would ask why there is no ability to add own custom miner.
Well i could do that but it would be good for hackers as there could be many new miners saying that they are working 50% faster than claymore miner and here is link to add it to simplemining...
Ofcourse i could do such feature and tell people that you are doing this on your own responsibility but well ... people are not what you think

People can sometimes argue with us that they did not received cash from some pool or that they sent deposit while it is not in blockchain

So not everything is obvious as it seems

I agree. SimpleminingOS is definitely for 'mainstream users.
It uses ubuntu, which is free. There are multiple step-by-step guides (free) on how to setup your own mining system. Many miners now are extremely easy to setup compared to back in the early days. There's also free software to monitor/control multiple rigs, and most miners have an api that can plug into those remote managers.
SMOS makes sense if you are setting up a rig for someone else. It also makes sense if you need to setup in a short amount of time. But if you want to mine coins that aren't even on an exchange yet to take advantage of early adoption, it makes more sense to learn to setup on your own.
