I find it very disheartening the posts that are pushed to the trending page by bots. I have similar problems as the writer does explaining have steem works to new people and with the trending page the way it is it can be counter productive to tell people to visit the site and see for themselves. The posts on trending these days will do nothing to encourage new potential users except give them a very bad view of what steem is all about.
Thank you for trying to balance this post with facts and I would love see someone translate your comment to turkish.
