Honestly, I don't even bother with trending anymore. It's a mess even just for introduceyourself posts let alone other posts. With bots being paid to get 500 votes and other tricks, it is just not worth checking. GINAbot is the way I find the content I want to see. Even that has limitations though, because there are people abusing key words too. A good example there is residential security. There's a money making scam on here where people just post useless reviews of products, and I get tons of hits for those posts even though they are mostly empty and contribute nothing good to the platform. :(
