RE: How Does A Blockchain Lose People?
Over the years, I've seen you make this point many times, and it's a good place to evolve to, where the best content creators earn most of the rewards, and I can't disagree.
Personally, I think that would happen naturally with less interference and more volume.
Also supporting your view point is curation rewards, which does incentivize (in theory) consuming and rewarding content.
I don't think we have opposing positions, youtube also allows casual users and those who are still practicing content creation to post and it evolved over many years, I was on early youtube when much of the interaction was people creating videos for other users and the responses.
I agree with your statement, but also think it takes time to get to that vision.

Yeah. Been repeating this and things similar... for several years.
Content creators often leave due to lack of consumers. Even for me, I find it difficult to find the motivation to post knowing in advance the market is so small, because that's a lot of work and I want it to be seen. Even though when I'd post I'd often receive much much higher than average views and comments, I feel like I'm not able to reach my full potential. That's discouraging.
Consumers constantly come here and attempt to be content creators because they're encouraged to take that route, then struggle, then feel like failures, and leave. That's one less potential consumer for every actual content creator here. Majority of sign ups are from consumers, naturally. This is a vicious cycle that'll just keep going. It's consistently overlooked. Just watch the #introduceyourself tag for several years and see how these consumers are consistently thrown into the wrong pile then asked to be something they're not, by some strange welcoming committee thing...
