RE: Steemit has problems. I have The Grand Solution.

in #steemit7 years ago

seems to me, someone one, perhaps even me, should make a steemit blockchain based website that filters out the 'upvoted by bot' content value. of course this does nothing for them leeching the system, but i think i'd enjoy the content more.

Sort:  

The issue is that with the current state of Steemit, that would eliminate a good chunk of all content in circulation. We clearly need a massive change to see this issue ridden of.

if the whales are sellouts just to make money, that greed will destroy steemit.

Then we are set to die along with it unless something is done. Somehow it really seems like every whale is avoiding me. I have tried very hard to reach out.. I posted on @jerrybanfield's post about Upvote Services, it is the no.1 comment on the page and he skipped me completely, and went on to upvote and comment on replies below me. Right below my comment @frystikken, the owner of @booster and also a witness, somehow didn't see my comment or couldn't be bothered to reply as my proposal is in direct competition with his extremely profitable endevour.

well i wouldn't reach out to the ones clearly abusing the system.

one thing, that is calling my attention now, is to focus on the wanted instead of the unwanted, and that is something i'm seeing fulltimegeek doing. he is promoting those that are thinking/acting independently. i liked this post ... so there are those working in the other direction. but maybe the answer isn't to destroy but just to do our best to not support those that using it, and finding those that do it right. my feed is actually getting better than 'trending' because of resteems/posts of those i'm following.

so i've not lost all hope yet, greed is a powerful drug, but it self destructs on lack of creativity.

I sincerely believe that Upvote Service owners don't have poor intentions on the matter, it may just be that at some point the profits become to intoxicating.

Thank you very much for the reference! I actually read that post and left a long long reply on his open forum post!

Indeed! I have not lost hope either, I have decided that I truly feel the need for my proposal to be taken seriously is important enough that I will keep pushing forth and bringing awareness to it as well as writing a proposal 1.1 adding new stuff and refining on existing points.
