Yeah... everyone needs to keep in mind that the first payout happened less than a month ago. Everyone's still building up their holdings. Things will get "better", it just needs time for the system (and its users) to mature a bit and really learn how to make it work to its full potential.

They are in fact updating it next week Tuesday to help provide a solution
Yeah, I read through craig-grant's post about the hard fork a bit. I didn't pay a lot of attention but I like the 12 hour cycle with 30 day window instead of 24 hours. Hopefully that will encourage more interaction and not random money-grabbing posts. In general I think the stream just goes by way too fast. I don't know if I'm just speaking out of familiarity with it, but I feel the site would be easier to manage and maybe more welcoming if the tags worked more like subreddits. There are obviously plans for some kind of "following" page, but being able to choose between a front page that lists everything and just a selection of topics or users you want to follow would be fantastic.
Well I agree the 12h cycle doesn't leave the posts up for people in other times zones making things a little tricky. I to have though of was in which they can improve the site and well its going to be hard. Most users are American so those posting at times they can't see aren't going to get as many votes and this might lead to further problems and "unfair" to others
exactly... in one month when i launched websites i had maybe like 10 users... going to 30,000 users this quickly has some additional challenges that no one can see other than the developers. i run a website with over 1 million uniques a month so i know
I will admit, I was getting frustrated the first week or two after July 4th because I couldn't seem to make anything. I finally realized late last week/earlier this week that I just needed to be patient and use the site. Now it's working out well for me. I've started a power down that's making me regular money each week without any work and I'm gaining more interest per week than the payout. Plus, I'm still commenting/curating etc so I'm earning SP and SBD on top of the interest I have coming in. It'll only get better as time goes on and more people will be able to pay others for useful comments. Your upvote on this comment alone got me .70 or something as it is, just imagine what it will be like in a few more weeks, months, YEARS.
The more time we actually invest in trying to understand this platform and how it is run the better our posts will do in terms of $
