The over all feeling is: how can we get rid of the dead followers? What will happen to those lost accounts funds over time? Do you think they will come back if an uptrend in price is coming? Will they show up after it has happened?
Sadly I could not attend to the SF3 but I wished to go. I'm happy that @flauwy made it there and I hope I can meet him to share some of his experiences and memories. Anyways thanks for your post. and Congratz I guess :D
I wonder I don't really like the way YouTube implemented it but would using a modified sub management system be useful here on steemit? I think YouTube has it set at something like account activity related to channel over the past year? I'm sure with the info that could be collected from the blockchain (votes, resteems, comments, comment upvotes, comment replies) in relation to X account that is being followed perhaps they could come up with a rule to unsub someone after saying X posts to Y engagements in a ratio, and when the ratio gets outside of a set value they unsub. And with steemits "lifecycle" it's not time but engagement with subscription based. I'm no dev but I do like thinking through problems so I have no idea if this is fesiable.
I think that sounds like a very interesting approach and in fact a very doable thing to implement.
Well if it would be doable. How could we go about working on getting the feature considered for blockchain application?
What would go into setup of such a feature?
Not sure but that sounds like something I will need to dig out :)
I'm following you now so please either drop an update here or in a post at some point so I can see. Now I'm curious!
Most of them are bots and automated accounts. Some are "dead" and abandoned. Some are just not active.
