This is a strawman argument -- you are arguing against a viewpoint that nobody on the "opposing side" is taking.
No sane person wants to adjust the curve in an attempt to reward subpar content creation. That's certainly not the argument being made.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
Intentions don't make content valuable. Putting a lot of effort in a blog post doesn't make it valuable. 99.99% of what's published on Steem is in the 'nice to know' category, including my own work.
I don't even agree with @exyle that a superlinear algo would reward content creators better at this point. Spammers would keep profiting from their self-votes, and bidbot votes would simply become more concentrated. It used to be easy to earn Steem in the first six months (before I joined) because there were relatively few bloggers and relatively many investors. That paradise full of low-hanging fruit will never return.
This has nothing to do with what I said.
I was explaining why what you said was irrelevant.
