Just one of those things that needs to be fixed for real.
Though I feel steemit HQ interfering in the affairs of the system may undermine thay decentralized and neutral position they are trying to have.
I have sent this post to the SMT telegram page, its basically the inly place we have to interact with the heads of steemit, whales, orcas and the rest that I know of.
the fact that they are still using telegram and not discord should tell you a lot about how in touch with the community the DEVS are...
There is a dev community on discord tho, where you can get get devs for hire i think
