RE: Extensive stats comparison pre-HF19 and post-HF19
The amount of content creators on SteemIt is still incredible high. In my opinion it's safe to assume that less that 10% of the population would be content creators. On SteemIt it's over 40%, so that results in a lot of below-average content and/or spam.
Well yeah, I may have overstated it. The ratio of authors to curators is still really high, but I guess just not as high as I thought it might be. I've felt for a while that there really needs to be a stronger incentive to curate. That way, there's a little more focus on enjoying content that's already there, and that's an activity that appeals to the average person; creating content does not. I think alot of people are coming here to work, not to enjoy themselves, and that's not good for the long term.
Also, I agree that so many people trying to author their own content results in alot of garbage. That in turn also makes it worse for the curators. Most of the time, I just don't want to deal with digging through new posts in an attempt to find anything cool.
