I agree that content discovery is very poor here, I have said that since the beginning. Part of the purpose of Steem Ocean is to get around that problem and more features will be coming to address that in the future. The original service there was the voter rank table which attempts to order Steem users by their level of generosity, with the size of their wallet being able to be offset by the amount of accounts they upvote, for example. This has allowed the most generous users to be seen, regardless of their wallet size.
It is curation that is intended to solve the problem of post discovery and I have a plan to improve that too, but it is quite a big project.
Yeah. Looking forward to seeing what you do. Not nearly enough of us like and resteem for decent content discovery.
