    That's a good post, which I mostly agree with. I don't see why you need to be condescending.

    My point here is that the idea from the Steem whitepaper that quality would arise from the right incentives without human oversight is a mirage.

    Anyway, what Steem bloggers consider quality is irrelevant to what attracts or turns off readers. Both The Financial Times and 9GAG are successful because they deliver what their readers are interested in.
