RE: Issues With Using Stake To Filter Content

in #content8 years ago

It would be the same as Reddit's system, with one major exception. The money incentive. That changes people's behavior and gives us different results. Rather than vote for stuff people are in favor in, they vote for what is profitable. Sometimes they overlap, sometimes they don't.

Secondly, I originally designed the algorithms I built to build better Reddit feeds since Reddit feeds are often polluted with ideological shills. Though since Reddit is better at organizing stuff than Steemit, bringing Reddit-like filters to Steemit wouldn't be such a bad idea.

Ah yes, that is a good point about improving reddit's filters as well :).

That being said, I was simply wondering what the trending/hot would look like today with these filters (in the state where everyone is gaming the vote-weight version of the filters).

If it ever gets adjusted the other way, I'm sure you'll see a shift in the feed to game the new system.
