RE: The authority fallacy on Steemit and the search for quality

in #steemit7 years ago

Yes, it is quite sad. But is there really any way to solve it? The market (as you put it) was supposed to control reputation growth with their upvotes, but somewhere along the line, it turned around and reputation began to control the votes. Is it the system that's flawed, or the market for not doing it's job and really looking for quality?
You are right. Everyone just wants to make a quick buck, quality be damned.

Sort:  

I am not sure yet if it's about trusting the market-system which is the mistake, or the trust in human beings...

Or am I just one of the small fish trying to complain about a system, but when I'm ride on top of the waves, will I still look towards change and improving a system that is, perhaps, flawed beyond repair?
