Now I did post a comment kinda consoleing kernl. But I think there are two sides to every push. I have supported most of your initiatives and I do believe you are looking out for the image of the community. If people don't like it, fork the code, remove his stake, run your own witnesses. Let's see what chain people choose :P...
I totally agree that 100000 word posts about nothing don't get the community very far; that is not what all of his posts are... I totally respect your right use your substantial stake however you choose. Do I totally agree with putting posts to 0.00, maybe not (I am of the mindset that if enough people put their eyeballs on content, and each throws just a fraction of a cent; content that is not spam should have a >0.00 post payout. Doesn't matter what I think though).
The problem is across the board he is still making some money. Where else would he be able to post that content and get money? Sure sometimes I feel some of my posts are "worth" more than voting reflected but in the end, I don't know where else I would be getting paid to share my (hopefully informed) opinions.
I'm sure as steem progresses to economic equilibrium everything will be okay in the end. Hope you keep funding more initiatives to grow this platform!
Of course I am, I just don't go posting and bragging about them. Most of my work is done behind the scenes.
The behind the scenes is the good work happening 🤙🏼
Oh I know you are! That's my whole point. You really are doing what is right for the community. Who cares if you piss a few off in the beginning - looking to the big picture.
Love the dedicated asshole. OG bad whale lmao.
And that's what I like about you sir.
