When I joined the-blockchain-that-shouldn’t-be-named in early 2018, bidbots were really rampant and like you, I would see the same faces on trending everyday. I still remember being confused af of what the purpose of bid bots were. There were a lot of them that don’t really care about which to upvote as long as you send them sbd. But because of OCD I slowly learned why they can be helpful to some people and why they exists tho it comes with disadvantages as well. I’m happy they focused 100% on curation and is now doing so well.
I’m proud of @acidyo for his hardwork and for the OCD team for the job well done. :D I’m also happy for the support OCD gets, which is a reflection of how many people care about curation and content on Hive.
Not even in a whisper.
The bidbot era was a strange old time and I am so glad that we aren't there anymore, as it was only leading one way. The community here is far more vibrant now, to the point I can't keep track of much of it :)
Yeah, it is good to see. I wish there were a couple more curation projects similar.
It wouldn't take a lot to adapt to the way we do things rather than stay behind the shadows and often found upvoting things that don't bring value to the ecosystem. It's sad but it is what it is, luckily we have downvotes now that can make them adjust their ways when they go out of line too much.
