It seems to be better for me, at least has been @whatsup.
@steem-ph got curation that it never would have gotten if the bidbots weren't downvoted.
Having said that, I might be jumping into the middle of the discussion.. I just wanted to share that from my perspective it is better after HF21 and HF22.
I am glad to hear it. Also, I agree there were too many bidbots voting up too much crap. :)
