There was a discussion on Steevc post about this.
This is something i feel will never change on Hive unfortunately.
When long form content (blogging) is considered the pinnacle of quality, no other content form can compete.
This isnt really about effort put in because a Hiver can write a 500 word blog post in 10 mins with ease, while someone from twitter or facebook will take an hour+, struggle, and it still wont be as good.
The Hiver will put in much less effort yet both pieces of content will appear on equal ground, more or less.
What It has always been about is: quantity of non repetitive text for most people when determining the "most valuable" content.
A post of a tweet length can never trend on Hive but a shitty badly written short story might.
And that will not change while all content forms share the same reward pool.
We have the tools to deal with the differences of opinion. Upvotes and downvotes. Those who choose to use them can.
Regarding audience and users, I have no idea why we would want to limit ourselves to aspiring authors, when engagement and social networks is a much bigger audience, thus opportunity.
:) Funny how things never change. Price goes up or down, it's time to get mad about rewards again. lol

We should not be discussing difference of opinion. Thats pointless.. We should discuss the fact that different content forms cannot coexist. 1 type always takes over and sets a standard. .
That set standard is what most people point to when they start downvoting.
Discussing opinions solves nothing in practice. Discussing design, might.
Yeah, agree. The different tribes makes the curation more targeted, tho. I like that. But definitely still some holes. For some reason I think that this will get corrected with time as the supercurators will take care of each own tribe, etc. Hope it makes sense, is too late in here :P
Sometimes it results in consensus.
GREAT POINT.
