@steemsecrets had a post about not knowing the history of Steem about bid bots, delegations and how some things has changed.

You putting these three things in perspective is much appreciated and agree that bots are a necessary change. I have used the promote option before and regretted it since there was no traction whatsoever in terms of engagement or views and was just money thrown out.

ahaha the memo system is hilarious especially when people message me to look at their post.

Now I agree that we have a working product already and lots of condensers and platforms on the Steem blockchain while most other system only have lofty promising of what it can do.
