What an intriguing problem. The main issue, as I see it, is that information is generated at a faster pace than it can be "consumed" (in lack of a better word). Why? Well, everyone wants to become one of the big fish. Or maybe they aim for the middle class. At any rate, they want their posts to be seen, and probably get some cash in the process. Of course, not everyone is a prolific writer, but that's never stopped anyone on social media. Of course, there is a control for this. The other users who read, comment and up vote (or don't). However, as a QA process, it's dysfunctional for the same reason as it is needed. There's just so much information being generated all the time. Is there a way to work around this? Maybe. But getting more controls in play might be interfering with everyone's right to express themselves. Maybe I'm not good at writing. Maybe I can't be bothered to pimp my posts with photos and graphics. Maybe I don't want to post selfies of me in a thong to get noticed (as I surely would - 1) I'm a dude, 2) My ass is hairy. Still, I should get to voice my opinions. To sum it up. I've got no suggestions, but I think getting a middle class in place is essential. Hopefully someone brighter than me knows how to get it done.
