I like your vision. I don't care that the founders moved on. This is a normal part of any business and show adaptation. Steem may do better with a Vitalik Buterin or Justin Sun, but i thinknit is more the findementals and development that are the problem. 50% curation is worth a try. At least with the optional slider to start. Next ur right about separate mechanism for rewards and trending. Last is development. Steemit needs a serious make over. It's worse than MS FrontPage circa 1998 which is sad. Also SMTs are needed 1 year ago.
