Adding Most Viewed Article (Views) Category on eSteem

Issue

So far esteem, only gives space to posts that have the most upvote to appear on the top, through the category "votes", coupled with "trending", "hot", "new", etc.

In fact, some posts indicated only rely upvotes by bots, not purely from the curation of the readers. This is certainly not good and unfair. It can reduce interest in reading and will make the post on this social media such as nothing or just to chase money without having value for learning from its community.

Therefore, a new breakthrough is needed for the steemian to increase their reading interest, so that what is written here has value and can educate this community.

Solution

Add the Most Viewed Category or "Views" among another category to stimulate interest in reading and better quality posts in steemit will pop up.

Summary

"Views" will be a special category to boost the postings written by the novice writers who have good quality, many are interested to read it, but have minimum vote from the whale, thereby can help the minnows to grow faster, because their posts will be automatically sorted into the "views" category and can attract the attention of the curators to read it.

I hope this idea becomes a consideration of @good-karma and team, when developing eSteem in the next version release.
