RE: An open letter to the Steemit community on Content, Plagiarism, and the Cheetah bot.

Awesome post and work on the bot. I honestly believe you are doing a great job but this platform is domed by design. The fact that it is centralized and have a couple owners making decisions about everything related to the currency, voting power, inflation rates, money distribution, etc, etc, it is only going downhill. It needs a lot of work... and I get it, it is on Beta, but it is undeniable the the plagiarism and greed are ruining this. Content quality is getting worse everyday and at this point is pretty much impossible to find a good original post. We can spend hours reading posts and upvoting good stuff and in the end make .001 Steem.

I have a feeling that content really doesn't matter here. Create a post with whatever, doesn't need to be readable, get some whale to vote, others will join... money is created and distributed in odd ways and we do it again to attract more users and money. Who cares about content?!

Sorry for the rant...

Keep up the good work.
