RE: A sad text about visibility on Steemit - someone else writes much better about this
True. Some posts, which under normal circumstances are 5-10 minute reads, solicit 50+ upvotes in the first 10 seconds!
BOTS!
For me that is harmful. Engagement is one of the finest indicators of a healthy social media platform, incentivised such as steemit or not, such as Facebook. And 'unthinking bit' don't help to that end, besides there other indirect harms.
Yes, you are right - bots are harmful to the underlying idea of steemit ..
They are, trust me, Thanks
