yeah I was going to say, if this is the organic non bidbot list it fucking sucks. in fact the paid posts ARE actually much better and useful. ...who the fuck would ever wanna use this site for news and info? reddit is still so superior and yet we should have no problem getting that same type of reddit content... why havent we gotten reddit users? reddit style content is the only way to make steemit work... it could be a very popular poppin place with a transplant of teh correct colony of reddit users , paid with soem delegation etc... thats who @ned should be hiring not @elipowell the "communications" cheif who wont even respond to this because she didnt even log in to her steem account
But i question if these are really organic. Im not claiming like fyrtsikken that there are backroom deals (there are)BUT there are people on auto upvote, myself included, but you have to disclude the people who automatically get a 17 dollar upvote like bitcoinmeister who should have his whale support removed in my opinion as he just goes on his livestream and talks shit about steem..... even when its one of his best ways of earning free bitcoin.... he cant even be grateful enough to steem for that, he has to be this weird bitcoin maximalist... acting like blockchain stats dont matter, he literally said to me on his livestream "Stats dont matter". i do have to hand it to him, he never banned me from the chat and he answered almost all my questions in a heated debate where most people like him would just get mad and ban me
but still thesepeople suck on this list, its a bunch of boring crap...
i think we should just have bots repost the top content from reddit in omprehensive lists that combine top trending posts on reddit Twitter hashtags for cryptocurrency and instagram too, we could get a nice collection of them and overlay them onto steem, and let steemians post to steem but stay ons teem to view other social media.. itd be liek @steemplus @steem-plus browser extension that sprinkled in reddit and twitter posts into the reddit feed, and allowed you to click one button for @dlike or @share2steem
Whats YOUR idea to help get better content on front page? My idea of the extension wouldnt necisarily put the content on steem its just taking stuff frtom otehr sites and letting a steemian choose to puyt that into their steem feed so you dont have to leave steemit, and we wouldnt have to worry about reddit saying we are copying posts, because it would just eb displaying thgeir posts sprinkled into our feed.... itd be nice to have reddit posts in theer with steem postrs of teh same category.... so i could atcually find out whats relaly happening with r/bitcoin wihile checking ot Steemits trending/bitcoin
I used to do a poist of the top 10 reddit posts from reddit r/pics + their top comments and i calle dit 'What you missed on Reddit r/Pics Today" and helped otehrs make them using otehr reddit subreddits. when you compile a list like that its not copy pasting its fair use adding value, etc . Lets be aggressive with our loophoel san dFLOOD steem with content from reddit wuntill we can get back on our feet., reddit was built with the blood an dsweat of its USERS who NEVER got anything in return. Its our content... fuck it lets just mke Bots that repost top 10 posts form reddit onto steem... one of my earliest dreams when i first joioned steem in march 2017
It takes first 300 post and remove about 95% of Bidbot and Smarmarket
I just changed it to HOT instead of trending
