I think that is a pretty good problem which we experience the most. Despite the fact I do post sometimes it is hard to find consumers and curators. I don't know if that is because after HF 19 people have been reserving their upvote due to voting power or because of the numbers of users joining creating content and ultimately creating this flood of posts.
It seems like here on steemit if you spam you do better than me. I don't envy these people but I've seen people who are small and post purely memes and earn a couple hundred dollars a week. I understand why they would do well as it is a social media platform and no one wants to bored with lectures and essays leaving good content to dwindle while the rewards pool is reaped by this spam.
I try to look through the new section finding good content and upvoting them. For the platform to thrive, rise and prosper we need to work as a community and help each other grow.
Maybe we could get rid of self upvoting as well as integrated a system where relative to how much you curate, you reach different levels which allow you to earn more and more of the curation stake.
Let's hope some of these suggestions and answers are taken forward to enhance and promote curations which the site needs to thrive @thecryptofiend
Absolutely.
