RE: 10 Ways to Fund a Steem Growth Project!

in #steemit7 years ago

I'm gonna add my two cents into this.
i totally understand where you're coming from. whales do hold the power, and they put the investment in, so that makes sense. However.......
One thing that should change is the ability to see posts that aren't trending. There is a lot of good content out that we cant see because of the fact its not trending. The only way i can see these new posts is if I'm following said user.

Sort:  

Yeah, they put the money in when it was worth 10 cents per steem, so it is no longer an equal playing field. Those that got in early have a disproportional amount of power, and any dissenting opinion or different point of view that threatens their earning, is brought down, flagged, etc.

I stumbled upon steemit last month through a Youtube video of @jerrybanfield that came up as a related video when I watched a video on CRYPTOCURRENCY. My gratitude to @jerrybanfield for that.

Anyway, about good content getting lost in the vast number of posts that are not relevant to one's interest is a huge issue here and going forward this should be addressed.

I have a strong feeling once a good SEARCH mechanism is put in place most of these problems will be handled.

We must all remember that this is still in it's "beta" phase.

Some of the sugesstions I have:

  1. Open up older posts for voting and "author rewards" after a specific time (perhaps after 30 days) for a second round of voting. There can be some criteria for that particular post to qualify for this.
  2. Also I see many new users just go on repeating the same comment such as "nice post" "vote me" some not even correct English and some even repeatedly in the same post. After a warning these members should be penalized because I feel strongly they are really making steemit into jungle of unnecessary comments. The comments section in a Post should be kept clean of SPAM at all times in my opinion.

There are many more suggestions but I strongly felt IMHO these two needed to get out there in the community.
