I don't even look at the trending page. I go straight to my feed which shows posts from people I follow. Comes from being an avid twitter user I guess. I just don't trust the "trending" posts as I know a lot have just paid for that position.
I try and find quality people to follow so I get quality content.
To be honest, people need to make an effort to find what they like. The world doesn't spoon feed anyone, we must plant our own harvest
Agree 👍🏼 I do the same .. rarely to go to the trending page ... only when not much on my feed page !
Problem here is not to whoever is already on steemit, since most of the users already know how to avoid the shittrending page.
The problem is about new users. If new users come, see shit, they leave and close the door. So, no more people entering the system, no mass adoption, steem dead.
Maybe I am still too new on here to have lost my enthusiasm for steemit, but there's nothing else like it around. It's not perfect, but it is changing and will continue to change... and for the better I hope
