Yes, that is something we have in mind and after talking with scipio, it seems likely to come out in the future. That would be a costly routine to run on their end, so the more support they get, the earlier this will come out, I bet!
When it does, I could easily add a new tab to Steemit through SteemPlus, that shows the real organic trending page.
I don t disagree that doing it via our extension is a band-aid, but hey if you want it directly on Steemit, don t hold your breath ;)

Still, there are two possible problems with this approach:

  • Bid bots probably have high UA since they have lots of followers, including whales (@jerrybanfield is in the top 100 for example).
  • High UA users could become bid bots used to get higher in the organic page. It can be mitigated by power users unfollowing those who would do so.

I don’t use Steemit.com much these days as I’m happy with Partiko...

Maybe but most users use and will keep using Steemit. For lots, STEEM = Steemit.
So for these change to be effective, SteemPlus won t be enough, Partiko implementing it won t be enough either, but it sets a trend among the Apps and finally reaches Steemit, we will have done a good job!

I actually think that within one year Steemit.com will no longer be the dominant platform. I’d like to bet on this..

Good points. Jerry was a big content producer though so I think that’s why his number is so high
