RE: Hey Steemit Whales, How'd You Like To Fix All Of Steemit's Problems And Make Bank By Doing Absolutely Nothing?

I agree fully. Not only quality is subjective, but also, people do not take the time to analyze the standards that make a post good or bad. Hence how people think long posts have high quality. But I think there is another problem with @yallapapi 's solution. It is to make these people (whales and dolphins) come to an agreement. They have no incentive to do so, just like in any societal system. As such, I think it will only occur if the people underneath them put the pressure on them. Some form of revolution. I have no idea how to do so in a peaceful and orderly manner, any suggestions are accepted.

Revolutions are seldom peaceful!

The incentive for them is to have a business passively built for them from scratch, or one that complements whatever business they already have in addition to more payouts from using their SP.

Here's a suggestion: no.

There is no way to "pressure" them into doing what you want. They are essentially doing the equivalent of plundering a dictator's economy before the country falls apart.

The "incentive" to them is the following:

  1. Create a content-based business around a certain niche (crypto, health, make money online, dating)
  2. Leverage that content into a business
  3. Leverage their goodwill among their new writers
  4. Run paid advertising campaigns for brands via articles on their account
  5. Be the first ones to transform the reward pool into a gig marketplace
  6. Make even more money from their SP/delegation

Basically, more money for less work. And a solid business that will last even after this platform dies.
