Yeah exactly, thats why i think small investments will go along way on this platform. slowly but surely become a whale yourself. Its going to take time unless you've got money to throw at steem but in the long run you can promote the really good content and give it a nudge to where it should be. i rarely even look at the trending section anymore. it's mostly just full of garbage. There is (in my opinion) alot more worthy content that deserves its place on the trending section but wont get it :(
