the problem with vote buying is low effort content getting into trending, which is a bad look for the platform. what value does steem have if I look to trending and shitty posts are there.

leasing steempower is mostly a charitable act, unless you self vote a lot you are unlikely to get a return on your sp lease. mostly it's used to reward content that you are curating, or those who engage with your content.

I understand, but what will you say about someone who does produce shit post has you call it, but has been able to invest a lot on steem power that can take him to tending page.

Doesn't he have a right to invest in steem power?

To me, I think we are all missing the point. The main point is to mine steem and not blogging.

Besides most post I see on trending page are all OK to me. Except we are looking for Mr perfect, which we all know that we can't find.
