Well this is a sad state of affairs. Just today I was discussing similar concerns over how Steemit works, in this post: https://steemit.com/philosophy/@abishai/a-vision-for-philosophy-and-religion-and-steemit-overall

I didn't write the post, btw!

People should come together and try to figure out solutions on how Steemit might be changed to work better for everyone.

Upvoted!
