RE: Collective Quality on Steemit & Taking it Beyond.
I agree with @weisser-rabe about the use of another platform. I use Twitter for FPL and deleted my Facebook long ago. I dont use Telegram and am sick of people on Discord asking for a delegation!
The answer is extremely difficult and I’ve tried to help solve it through my own interface. I’ve filtered out a lot - voting bots and #krsuccess being remove helped massively. I want another layer now to remove diary games and engagement challenges then we’ll see what’s left.
I think that the reality is that after I’ve done this, there still won’t be much left - who knows. I run a script for some curators which automatically searches for new posts (@curator-helper) which works well but still requires the human eye.
Even authors who start off really well (and I can think of a few that I loved to read), became a moderator, benefitted from a curation trail (equalling $5+ dollars per day) and their content turned to lazy shit. Very disappointing.
I don’t know what I’m saying. I agree with you but whilst most people are here to earn as much as they can for the minimum of effort, I can’t see any killer solution.
I actually do too :D and I have tried to explain myself a little better in response to her... but will also add in response to you too that I would absolutely LOVE it if the ENTIRE experience here encompassed everything I mentioned to her... and from what you said it looks like we are well on the way there.
Well that is partially my point - in that, like other social media spaces... it would be amazing if Steemit became "attractive" to the every day users eye too... so that naturally encouraged people to want to come check it out and/or get involved. After all, is that not partially the objective?! - That broader appeal becomes an actual thing and therefore growth?
I know what you are saying and it I suppose there will always be some level of that for the simple reason that potential monetary gain is involved - but in some ways - and to my mind, if people changed their mindset to one where passion and profit worked together... that would be awesome... but perhaps I am just being too much of a glass half full girl? haha! I don't know and also don't know of any instant solutions either... but it is great to actually talk about things like we are right now... :)
I don't either LOL! But brain farts have occasionally been known to amount to something worthwhile haha!
Hope you have a lekker Wednesday :)
