Argghhh I am feeling very ashamed ...

You shouldn't: I guess I should have written my frustration about the automated nature of Steemit not under your article ... because I see it more as a general Steemit problem than a special SteemStem issue ... So maybe it was not fair to write it here (it was just that I noticed it here again while reading your article).

Thanks nevertheless for mentioning manual curation as well in your post now - in my eyes it is important that some people continue doing that. :)
