I dont think that the content is low. I see daily good content written my Minnows and remains invisible. We also have many new users signing up every day. The problems we have in this platform is Spam, Phishing, Selfupvote in a wrong way, whale war and plagiarism. These are the major problems that we have and need to solve fast as possible :(
Another problem is bots! We have many of them and the most dont offer any useful service. Just 3 days ago I saw a very normal personal photo on the trending page, upvote by bots and about 500 users. I mean whats going on!
