You are right, no one cares especially Non-Steemers. But it fills up trending. If we need it off trending, we need to stop upvoting and consider downvoting. Whstever, not sure what to do about it. But I know how we can fix that. Let's just make Steem great again, again!
Exactly that.... Make steem fun, easy and entertaining and it will fix it's self.
I dont mind people working on whatever behind the scenes or making a proposal, but endless discussiokln or posts on trending get tedious.
Maybe it's just an issue with decentralized social networks. We can't really influence anything on Twitter or Facebook so no one bothers. Also, making money on those platforms is completely different (commission based) so there isn't a finite amount.
Here bad ideas, or boring technical stuff can start trending fairly easy.
I do think the communities can solve it because they can just mute it away. Eventually those will lool like entirely different front ends and people won't even know what Steem is if one gets it right. Maybe someone will make a SteemKontakte.
Yeah, the best thing that can happen to us is a market pump. The burning and silliness is a drop in the bucket and means nothing. Plus it looks stupid too.
