Open Discussion: Fix Trending & Stop Promotion Abuse

in #steem7 years ago (edited)

We all know that the global trending page is broken.

@heimindanger, recently made a post where he explained his view of how the trending page is broken.

He then tried to rally stake-holders to downvote/flag trending posts which were promoted with several bid-bots / promotion services.

While I understand the reason, I don't believe that the way is effective and good enough. Not all promoted posts deserve to be downvoted!

My opinion is: we should stop those users from buying votes in the first place - instead of using our own votingpower to counter these votes.


Since I run and develop Smartsteem.com - I'm in charge of a big stakeholder bid-bot & promotion service and I'm open to hear your feedback of what needs to change and possible solutions!

Additionally, I'm also willing to fund and work together with services which aim to solve promotion-abuse (e.g. global blacklist etc.)
