99% of the daily reward pool is delivered by auto-votes from accounts that hold massive amounts of SP (or delegated SP), but how could they possibly read every Steem post to create a more 'fair'distribution based on content?
Steemit ate my last two replies so fuck being eloquent.
I don't care. If you can't read, you don't get to vote. If you don't have time to vote, Steem is a dumb investment for you and you should sell and power down.
Autovote is the antithesis of this platform. Fuck autovote.
u might be forced into it tho...
Maybe that's a bit too straight to the point. But I do understand where you're coming from. Having a bot do the voting directly goes against the concept of 'Proof of Brain', an actual human reflexion on quality and content.
From what I understand, Steem was built on 'Proof of Brain', since Proof of Stake and Proof of Work have serious disadvantages. So yes, I tend to agree that autovote is indeed the antithesis of this platform.
One solution for rewards based on content is those with high SP to hire others by delegating SP . The accounts that have introduceyourself posts with photos of the same person in various posts and original content (verified by cheetah and other hummans) are human and the others are all suspect.
