To Bot Or Not To Bot?

in steemit •  7 years ago 

I'm new to the platform too. It seems like the vast majority of content on here (at least in the new section) is trash. I scrolled for 5 minutes before finding anything worth clicking on.

Perhaps the system needs a way to report spam?

    I noticed a lot of the content was "fluffy". Even the trending and hot feeds have a lot of weak content. I wonder how much of this is because the incentive to use the platform is skewed towards upvotes and rewards rather than generating good content. Another issue is that there are no sophisticated algorithms applied to the feeds like on Facebook.
