Steemit Is Flawed

in #steemit7 years ago

steemit is inherently flawed because it will determine content quality based on content popularity.

"The reputation score is based on the history of votes received by the account, and is used to hide low quality content."

Steemit equates quality to popularity which is blatantly and absolutely wrong. Steemit will perpetuate lies based on popularity rather than actual quality or veracity of content.

More often than not, the truth will be unpopular. Yet steemit will make it its business to hide the truth based on the downvotes from either bots, brainwashed idiots, or paid shills.

Food for thought. Bon apathy.

Yeah, I spotted that one right off the top.....
I'm not sure what definitive conclusions we can draw from that....
That's like apatheism!

It's totally controlled.

Of course! That much I get.... but I haven't made a definitive decision about the who's and whys....
I'm smart enough to make some pretty good guesses, though, but I'll keep those to myself for now:)
