hello sir. I have an idea that you could help have a reach more than me: a simple "choose" button next to the upvote designed to send the post to a curator group that only other steemians can use.

Instead of going to discord to promote your post, other users can do it for you! We can also bring discord on a click away while being on steemit.

It's like the "promote" button but free and with a targeted curator team that will choose how worth is the post and upvote it accordingly.

There could also be a sub-menu that will pop out when clicking on "choose" where you can select the tags or the curator team you want the post to be addressed on like for example a "choose-for-art" tag or "choose-for-curatorteam1" and so on...

Regarding the bots problem eventually abusing the button then we will have made a "trap" for those bots/users where they click for their own fate more like a rat-trap for abusers and scammers.

people like @sherlockholmes and @spaminator even @steemcleaners would have an easier job collecting those "predators" as they would fall into them by their own act

So in the end one would chose wisely and honestly who should be on the curator's eye

I just thought right this moment that a "choosenot" button could also be implemented right next to "chose" for the reason mentioned above in this post of reducing or limiting one's influence

"chose" could also be very well "influence"
