RE: Boosters -- Why They Are Bad For Steem and Steemit
the problem is being identified by experienced steemit users. A minnow like me is a year late in joining early. Some posts are very very good but because we are considered n00bs we lack the attention of some more experienced users. In order to gain that rep we use booster services. I get that some posts shouldn’t be upvoted due to plagiarism etc.. however some posts have nothing to do with it and are completely ignored by experienced steemit users who are just upvoting their own inner circle. It’s not such a black and white issue. It seems clawing to the surface is the status quo.
I understand that there is a problem with content discovery and I face the same problem. It's because of the current tag-based organizational layout for posts and things will change for the better when communities are implemented. I wrote a post yesterday where I talk more about how easier it will be for people to get their work noticed and many other good changes that will come from the communities feature.
