Wake up everyone.
The sooner we have a reality-based UI for Steem with all the bidbot posts in their actual home (the Promoted tab), the sooner we can resume our plans for mass adoption.
An Organic Trending Page is in high demand as it always been since day 1.
Some of us actually want to discover new things instead of tending to bot farms.
Nothing wrong with bidbots but they are currently on the wrong Tab.
Any devs interested?

Awesome. Something to look forward to.

I was about to say @partiko could do it! XD

@thewritersblock would get behind this idea. With the introduction of our new front-end site here at the Toronto conference, the topic of content visibility is hot on everyone's minds. @noblewitness is all about giving voice to undervalued content creators, so this would be right up our alley as well.
Try out Partiko because it’s focus is on user experience and it will be interesting to see what they do with customized feeds

You can sort posts in other ways besides payout
Bid bot posts don’t belong on trending. They are bought so they are promoted and belong there.
Posted using Partiko iOS
Stop sorting posts by payout (stop using trending tab on Steemit.com) steemit.com along with other apps have other ways of sorting posts besides just payout.
I stopped using Steemit.com for the most part.

Same, I feel you though. I’m concerned for the new users who come to the site not knowing about the other apps and sites.
Posted using Partiko iOS
I completely ignore the trending page for that very reason. I prefer to follow people I find interesting and for that, I have my own feed. But indeed, shoving bidbotted content to the promoted tab would be a nice cleanup
Investors and newbies look at trending. I also want to find new random interesting posts on a wide range of topics. It’s a no brainer.
Posted using Partiko iOS
I think that's a great idea! I was wondering where the crap trending posts were coming from.
Just woke up...Good Morning🙏
Its been ages since i saw trending pages. But I did come across few posts which indicates "promoted post" what it means?
Posted using Partiko Android
Well said, and 100% agreed!
Cant remember the last time I visited the trending page. I'd rather delve into the depths of the New tab than spend a second in trending.
It certainly makes sense for them to go in promoted. I have a feeling unless a dev picks this up in creating a new UI that STInc will say "just wait for communities"

This platform seems more doomed as time passes, what will happen with all the invested SP once bidbots take you out of trending? I assume a mass cash out as very few people will continue to use them and most holding the power don’t care to use it they just want the income, onto the next crypto with staking.

Imo the solutions must come from the developer level otherwise it’s just a bandaid ... don’t mind me feeling very nego about these type of oversights

So they are working on Steemit development then? Not just another system to function on top of the flawed system?
Posted using Partiko iOS
That is a great idea. Just remove all content upvoted by bidbots from all tabs and put them in their own category!
Posted using Partiko Android
I have been saying the exact same thing for months now, there are two options: move all the posts that use bots to promoted or put a promo label on any post that uses a bitbot or payed upvotes like ANY OTHER SOCIAL MEDIA SITE does. No need to reinvent the wheel here.. It would make it a lot clearer to new people and they would understand that it is hard to get huge payouts and that Steem isn't a get rich quick thing, the way it is promoted now.

If a post used a bid bot but gets enough other votes to be in trending, should it still be moved to promoted? Or just if it’s in trending only because of the bid bot?
Posted using Partiko iOS
Any post that is paid gets moved to Promoted
Posted using Partiko iOS
So then if someone wants to knock someone off the trending page they just pay a little for a bid bot vote?
Or, if I buy a vote for someone else (I actually did this recently to help out someone in need), then that would automatically ruin their chances of getting on trending?
I’m all for making trending better, just wondering how it can be made to work without creating other problems.
Posted using Partiko iOS
Yeah let’s enlist some intelligent people on this. The incentives will lessen for this behavior so there will be other ways besides paying a bidbot to help someone out. Maybe we start out with paid bids from the same account as a starting point

Yes yes yes yes!!! I'd love to trawl the trending tab and find posts that have shot up there organically - that would be like discovering a jewel mine of content :)

Lol That would be like an ACTUAL REAL SOCIAL MEDIA SITE...

Haha! There's lots of good stuff here too. It's still life-changing for many of us... just needs some TLC tweaks ;)

I blame Steemit INC for the take over of the paid bid bots and everyone delegating power to them. Now we have so many people trying to play king of the hill with the bots and also when new people come to Steemit the whole things looks like a confusing bot orgy.
It wouldn't be that hard to fix. Like you said moving those posts over to Promoted and then the trending page needs to use an algo that doesn't just throw the post with the most stake weight up there.
They need to look at a combination of stuff like stake weight, number of upvotes from accounts with at least 200 SP or something, views, resteems, rep, amount of comments .......etc . People will still try to game that but it is at least a little closer to Trending than it is now.
Trending has been a joke since day 1. For over two years it has been a huge problem with this place.
Yes I agree that Steem will be disrupted pretty quickly unless this gets solved. It’s actually not that difficult to implement some fundamental changes and I think dApps can do this better than anyone else.

All the bidbots have to do to eliminate impact on the rest of us is require that rewards be declined.
The posts will still trend, they will be identified by declined rewards, the price of trending goes to it's true cost, and the reward pool isn't abused by those willing to buy their own trophies.
But, be careful who you say that to, they will boot you from their discords,..
