This was an interesting convergence for microblogging content.
I've been "snape posting" on the new Hive Snaps app "Snappie" by @meno and we have a torrent of "Wordle" reports there.
The quantity of short form content on Inleo fell off a cliff in the middle of August.

I remember seeing last week task going bazooka on spam... so, any stats on leo, to me are bs.
I love this report
is there someone who can explain, and I do mean this sincerely, the idea here? What is this? Why add all this bloat? Who is it benefiting?
I'm not questioning his "right" to do so. I know he can do as he pleases. I want to know What the plan is?
Like... let's say Joe Mcdingleberry buys 300k in HP and wants to post pictures of him eating sand off the beach. Can he do this? Of course, he's in his right to do so. But, I doubt its helping him in any way. I doubt the sand eating is helping his gut, and its certainly not helping his investment to document it.
I know he used to run an account @leoglossary that appeared to be for the sole purpose of improving SEO of InLeo. As a layman, that would make sense, but it actually did more harm to InLeo than good as it is easily picked up by Google as keyword stuffing and ultimately penalized their SEO. That being said, it stopped when I nuked rewards.
This is just selfish self serving behavior without any care of the impact on the ecosystem and is why he is blacklisted. I should have done it a long time ago but many of the powers that be love him.
I've not talked to him personally, but I was once on Discord when he was being interviewed. He seemed reasonable to me, smart even. So, attempting to be generous, I'll say there's some piece of information I don't have.
That said, I think it's 100% undeniable the fact that he's hurting the chain with this spam. It almost seems vindictive. So, even if some influential people like him, I don't blame you for blacklisting him. If he began spamming Snaps like that, I would probably blacklist him too.
It is malicious.

There is an interesting inflection point around July when the "365 Day" view is selected.
Shortly after that point unique users are more normally distributed across InLeo, PeakD, and Ecency - for short form content production.
