RE: Is steemit any better after HF21 and what is newsteem? (cause i dont know)

in #steem5 years ago

The reward for manual creation deals more with the payout change and I am ok with that.
Would like to know the other obvious good things you see just curious.
In terms of New steem I have seen them celebrate the shut down of community bots with good standards and content. All while a good number of them use bidbots themselves but then claim that all bid bots are bad. Down voting all good content with them. If your focus is content based then it should impact your decision. Additionally, blanket silliness of this kind makes people leave.
Just my view and was interested in ypur take. Have a good one.

Yeah overall distribution of rewards being changed and affecting manual curation efforts is great. Before haejin was the highest paid author and now he’s not benefiting as much from newsteem by posting... it’s a good way to help keep other people happy. It matters for the future of steem and I’m glad things are changing for the better.

The changes I was referring to are really all encompassing surrounding the payout redistribution since manual curation has increased, payout amongst smaller accounts has increased and overall exposurability has increased. It’s just a better place overall

Yeah I am OK, too, with the reward redistribution changes; it has incentivized the curation efforts.

Other obvious positives are the downvotes, taking crap away from trending and putting those rewards back into the pool as well as the death of bidbots and their rebirth as manual curators !

My question is does content matter when looking at bidbots? Also if you(the community sense not you specifically) are so against them why do those that preach that use them. Also if a bid bot has standards its different than just a generic. If you're against them that's fine. I just think it's hypocritical for people to downvote content that's good all for one specific thing. Additionally, then turn around and use the same bit bot they are crying about on another post on theirs.
My whole argument is content matters no matter how the up votes are getting there. Additionally I find it funny that those pushing the end of bed Bots have bought a lot of their power. A bit but is exactly the same pretty much. You are paying in order to try and increase your steam just like when you buy it at an exchange. I don't expect you to agree with me but I think we should all agree that content is a main factor and down voting in a blanket sense does not help anybody.
