Whales can enforce any rules here with flags, it's been done before, for example one whale forced everyone to adopt a rule where too old posts couldn't be promoted through flagging. We have all the tools available but those with biggest stake would need to do something with them. sadly bid bots are the easiest route for passive income here but I and many are saying it's killing adoption and making people leave.

It's the whales that delegate to and own these bid bots though! And the kind of people who buy their way to whale-sized stakes aren't likely to have the best intentions for the platform.
True and that's the problem. Biggest shareholders and their mindset where short term profits trump over everything else.
If I had to say, it’s whales using misusing their power to serve their greed. Bidbots have actually killed this platform off, back in the days it used to be fun meeting new people online and seeing people work hard to create good content, it would inspire us to do the same, lately no one cares at and they just are hungry for votes.

Yes, that's all true.
Why should minnows, dolphins and those who yet aren't even Steemians care when the biggest shareholders don't? Lately I've been doing zero curation, it's just not worth it.
It's true at this point there's no worth, however i'd curate those posts which i like or i support, i wanna focus on networking and building a network of like minded people that can focus on the outside of steemit.
