RE: Suggestion: The Upvote Button Should be at the Top of the Post

in #steemit7 years ago

If the post is shitty... why do you need to look for the upvote button? Just don't upvote.

I would even go further and say we should not have the upvote button in the feed, but only when opening the post.

Sort:  

But how would we upvote then?

Clicking on the Post... Reading it... Deciding if it's shitty or not... Finish reading and/or scroll down... Click on Upvote?

Upvote only appears when you answer 5 pre determined questions provided by the author and get all 5 correct. It's captcha for 2020.

To @herverisson: That's ridiculous.

Not so fast; I have heard rumours that some people actually curated like that, way back when. No written records of this survive beyond some oblique comments, but references to The Old Curators still linger in living memory. It is generally assumed they Stopped Caring at some point when both income and efficiency started to suffer and it was decided that gaming and scheming were also well within a system Working As Intended. It's all folklore now, of course, and rather hard to believe.

I mean. I've HEARD of these stories. But I've always assumed they're just that: stories.

Magical tales passed on to grandchildren in order to make them shut up for a moment as they listen to you tell the story.
