RE: Steemit Suggestion Box: A Modest Proposal to Solve the Trending Page Issue, Once and for All
That sounds like a pretty good idea and would certainly achieve a more representative trending page. Of course, it requires changes to the code and therein lies the problem. Other than the recently disappearing view counter and a shiny new pencil and magnifying glass a few months ago, very little seems to happen in the way of improvements. Yeah, I know, we're still in beta.
I do like Asher's idea as it's something we can actually do ourselves
Sadly, I think one of the "weaknesses" of decentralization is that getting anything done (changes) moves at a snail's pace... everybody is very busy down inside their own little worlds; many of the original witnesses are more interested in developing and working on their own apps for the Steem blockchain than working on the Steemit social front end.
In most cases, there is no "they" here, there's only WE. Asher's initiative is just an example of "we" coming together to attempt to effectuate change.
