I think the homepage of Steemit could use a revamp, I'd like to see different ways of presenting popular tags also putting new tags into the spotlight.

The promote tab doesn't really do much either, I seriously doubt that many people even bother to look at that.

This is of course all stuff that the community can't really help with, so I'll also mention some stuff that we can do ourselves.

I'd like to see more people engage in manual curation instead of delegating all of their Steem power to bots. Automatic curation certainly has it's place, but it would be good that more people would actually use the site instead of automating their voting all the way.
