this situation is kind of similiar to how Google has been dealing with spammers so they can used as an example for this. For them a vote is a link, the more of those you have the more like you're to be on the 1st page. So, they implemented ways to make sure it's not just about links (votes). They created ways to make sure that content is also good by looking different factors like original content, lenght of content, weight of the votes (what used to be pagerank) or here could be whate followers/votes and random manual review if some flags come up. The same can be implemented here with bots and time goes by they can become a lot more sophisticated. I see steemit becoming its ecosystem with its own complex search algorithms they can take rewards beyond 7 days with news way to earn them.

This is interesting comparison, it's hard to implement it in the "system" of steemit... so we need the community to make sure that this happens. but....
Speaking about search.... steemit has one of the worst search/filtering system I've seen in a (social) website... we need a better search... probably a website like google that is offchain (for faster searching) and has as many filtering systems as possible (by user, by multiple tags, by content, and by images)
yeah there's still a lot that needs to be set up but that's what's so exciting about being here now. It's being there when the top internet sites were poping up but being able to learn from their mistakes
