True words :). We only have authors in here. Nobody joins steemit just to read posts and vote them. Everyone wants a big piece of cheese.

I wonder if they change the rewards algorithm so curators make at least as much as authors, will things change for the better?
That would make it far worse. You think the problem of people voting without reading will get better if they are earning more money from curation? It seems to me that the opposite will happen - more autovoting, more rushing to upvote without reading, less actual engagement.
I'm saying there is no incentive for steemians to really curate, they prefer to get some of the authors' rewards by posting their own posts. Maybe if there was a better rewards distribution people will actually start to read and engage.
That would be fair.
There are many things that could be improved here. But we are still at the beginning.
How old is Steemit? One year and a half?
Yes, it's new, but now is the time to think of a way how to make it better. Before it becomes too late.
