RE: Flagging. Someone has to do it.

in #steemit7 years ago

I think it's a very important problem you are talking about. Some posts i realize that almost all comments are from bots. I feel a bit sad, and annoyed..I wonder however, if the root to the problem can be solved? Is it possible that creating an account can be made more difficult? In the end I guess someone always find a loophole, so we have to rely on the community to help and disarm the annoying bots.

Yeah, I've read stories about how terrible Twitter is. How so many of the accounts are completely bogus. It's inevitable, but maybe fighting algorithms with algorithms is the way to go which is why I appreciate projects like @cheetah by @anyx so much.

That might be a good Idea ! Btw I have an idea for a project which I think could bring value to Steemit. Who would I talk to about that ?

The community. Post about it and see what comes of it.

There's also this official approach from the steemit blog, but I haven't seen it used much, unfortunately: Crowdsourced Marketing Protocol: Ideas, Proposals, Projects

Okay awesome I will give it a shot ! Thanks 🙏
