Super great post. But I do have a bit of a reservation on the reward pool being evenly distributed to everyone who contributed a post regardless of who they are. Our platform encourages everyone to submit quality content and stands to reason that if you have good quality you will be rewarded and vice versa. Unilaterally giving out rewards to everyone without consideration to the content quality will just serve as a disincentive to those who actually work on making valuable and quality content. We have to encourage members to work on their craft. Give them incentives to make themselves better. A reward pool that does not take this into account may just end up being the problem rather than the solution.
I am for the Reward pool. But I also value content quality. A happy medium should be thought out for this.
Thanks for reading this until the end. No intentions of upsetting anyone. Just my opinion.
Thanks for sharing your perspective. The way I look at it, 90% of the rewards to encourage high-quality post and 10% to rewards pool to help new steemians grow is a healthy balance.
