Yeah, 100%, we need to focus on the individual more than giving an overall explanation that loses them.
It's pretty dangerous for the development of Hive if things just get upvoted randomly, but I'm not really sure how to combat quality control without using downvotes that could then lead to anger and conflict on a large scale.
Maybe we need to reconsider what is considered Hot, or Top. Trending content here is based on the amount of money a post earns, maybe we need to rethink that idea and have a separate section for trending content that is based on the quality of it rather than how much it earned. That way good content will be promoted, and gain attention rather than lesser work that is overpaid.
As far as delegating the majority of the available HP here to a few accounts, I had this thought a while ago and I don't know if I'm right or wrong. But, let's say 10 accounts have a lot of HP delegated to them, that could be an issue if we do get some form of 'Mass Adoption' because with a huge amount of creators, the large curator accounts wouldn't physically be able to upvote all of them, so it would actually be better to have the HP distributed among multiple accounts so they actually have the mana to curate more content and keep up with the userbase expansion.
Obviously, I'm nobody and don't have all the answers, but I do have a lot of ideas about Hive in general, and thoughts for ways to potentially help certain problems I have seen.
No, you are not nobody... Your voice is equal to anyone's else... Maybe your stake isn't as high as that of some whale, but that doesn't mean that you don't have a voice to say your opinion and share your ideas...
I do understand the main "use case" for downvotes, but I don't like them and I think that we should (and we can) find a better way to cope with plagiarism and abuse... IMO, this "setup" kills freedom of speech as collateral damage, which further kills the point of HIVE...
Exactly! There is no way to reach decentralization at its max without taking individual responsibilities and using our POWER to feed it... When we stop feeding centralized solutions, we will begin to grow decentralization!
Thanks a lot for taking the time to discuss about this important topic!
