RE: If We Want to Slow the Use of Voting Bots, We Need to Meet a Market Need - Here's a Possible Solution
I think your solution would definitely be an improvement on the situation than what is implemented as of right now. However, it would not solve the issue that the 'Promoted' page will still always be non-relevant to anyone in particular, rather just a hairy mess of whoever is paying to have their content seen.
It is by human nature to rather focus on the things that interest them. As such, once again no one would visit it often enough for it to be effective.
I have created 2 in-depth posts with a ton of similarities to the issues and solutions @raised2b has written in this post and believe it to be an effective solution to solving the problems facing Steemit right now. You can find them here :
Growing Unhappiness with Upvote Bots on Steemit
Proposal for New 'Promoted' Function
If you do give them a read, it would be really cool if you could also resteem it so that more Steemians may know about it in a rallying effort to have a better solution implemented.
Thank you!
Sure, of course. I'll have a read and see if it ignites some additional ideas. Thanks for sharing them with me. We definitely needs solutions and definitely need ideas to help these solutions come to fruition.
