RE: Fixing Steemit With Baby Steps Part 4: Hot and Trending Tabs
Some of these ideas are interesting solutions to fixing these pages and reducing the amount of repetitive users at the top. Reducing the weight of bots would require an active blacklist and there would be ways to get around it. But other than that, some cool ideas that would satisfy most of the whales and help newer users out.
I don't think Steemit will ever adopt something like this, but maybe future competitors will. Content diversity is a good idea to keep things fresh at the top and give everyone something of interest.
Honestly the biggest issue here is how flagging is a joke of a system. I stayed away from that topic in this post because I've already talked about it multiple times.
Also, you're right about bots, they can't be stopped there will always be a way around trying to stop them. Better to work around them than try to attack them directly.
