Hi @isaria!
First of all huge thanks for your upvotes that earned me some PALs. You are probably the only/main person making me earn some PALs.
Having been involved with Curie since the beginning of my Steem journey, I completely understand your reasoning for the quality of posts. Curie is probably the most strict regarding quality.
I have also been involved with @steemhunt for more than a year as a moderator, hunter, etc. I truly believe this is one of the best projects on Steem, and adds great value to Steem. While I can understand Steemhunt post may seem "low effort" posts. By default, users can only post 1000 characters. Most of the effort goes beyond the post itself but hunting the newest and coolest products.
I personally, mainly post Steemhunt post, as I believe in the project, the team, and any activity contributes to the project. Once Reviewhunt is launched soon, there probably will be posts with more substance to qualify as a traditional blog.
Grateful for your upvotes, just wanted to clarify about Steemhunt. It is more than what it seems at first glance.
P.S. I sold my airdrop PALs to see it is real. I think people selling PALs is healthy in a long run. Builds confidence in the project and the community.
Hi @geekgirl! Thanks so much for sharing this info with me. Now that I think about it, I think I upvoted one of your Steemhunt posts lol. I guess I was confusing it with something else, apologies. I admire your work on the blockchain so I will take your words regarding Steemhunt to heart by not excluding it and editing my post....thank you!
