RE: Okay People: Listen Up Because I Have Words to Say

The shortage of consumers/curators is a problem. If you had even a few thousand more curators deciding what's currently popular, you'd see the trending page change constantly, throughout the day. There's no need to tweak that, just need to attract more consumers to make it actually work.

That’s a good point. Do you think higher curation rewards would attract more people to the platform?

I think the curation rewards combined with the fact a content creator with skin in the game can reward consumers with comment upvotes is quite generous at the moment and if more people found out they could get paid to be entertained and didn't have to throw their money away to support those they enjoy, those people would be interested. You can't sell the idea as 'curation rewards' though. That's our local language. There are people here who did buy in so they can sit around and have fun, while being rewarded. Rewarding the actual consumers is one of the most misunderstood and unappreciated things we got going for us. Give away one free beer at a baseball game and the stadium is packed.
