RE: Graveyard shifts and flattening curves for evergreen content

in LeoFinance5 years ago

One thing we can do is to create a comment below a post with beneficiaries set for the author and then vote on it. If the practice can be made easy to do from the UI, we will not even need to have any code changes on the blockchain level. @knircky had provided some similar service on STEEM.

Yes, that is possible now. the problem is that as you say "the practice" - this means it has to be a cultural thing - that also means that every new user that comes into the platform has to be taught the practice. We need to stop looking for workarounds to enduser usage, because it is too hard to spread the information and build the habits. Even now with so few users, many people have no idea what is going on with even the basics. Half the people don't seem to have even known there was a hardfork coming.

I’m a fan of this comment bene idea. It’s also not hard to make this all happen on the backend. The user would be upvoting the post and wouldn’t notice the difference on the front end.

Evergreen content is something I’ve got in the back of my mind to tackle some day. It may be sooner than later now after scraping some ideas off this post/comments :)

So am I, but it should be unseen by the enduser (like the suggestion you had above). I would love it to get to a point where consumers voted content they liked without any regard to timing or age of the content. I would love to see content that attracts "residuals" for years so that one great piece of content might collect thousands in votes over the space of a decades. This would be even more likely in the advent of mass adoption and increase in token price. In time, people will be able to be true authors who put content out that is built to last and be sticky.

Thanks for taking the time :)

I am happy to bring steem-bounty to hive if this is something we think will be used.

Get in touch if it can help.
