First, thanks for your post and unselfish attitude. That is priceless and is one of the qualities of great contributors to the platform.
However, without a very innovative technical initiative to deal with bots, you still would not arrive at the proper balance required to propel the platform into the mainstream of the social space.
Producing consistently high quality content that would be of interest to a broad audience of non-crypto enthusiasts is very hard work but is needed to in order for Steemit to draw users into its space.
Without sufficient rewards for good authors the platform will not be sustainable.
The definition of what is a good author requires a clear vision of who the current target audience is for Steemit and an understanding of what is mandatory for them to join and engage with the community.
In my opinion, the curation author split is not the critical factor for immediate growth of Steemit. I have seen numerous posts suggesting pieces of the puzzle. Now, we need to quickly assemble a combination of the bests small bits and execute them as quickly as possible taking into consideration the issues of testing, etc.
Better communication regarding what is coming and why would also go a long way towards building a perception that Steemit is the best social media platform today.
Steemit has to make sense to new users, existing users, past present and future investors.
That my friends, is a very tall order which I am hoping the community can achieve. It needs everyone involved and committed to a clearly defined set of objectives.
This is not a job for a few at the top. It is, in my opinion, a task that can only be done with a concerted and enthusiastially engaged community.
