RE: Is It Time To Create A Dark Steemit or Maybe Separate SubSteems Or Groups In Steemit?

in #steemit9 years ago

Don't the different SteemTrails let people follow specific topics? If someone followed just the trails they were interested in, their feed would filter out problem content already. For example, I look at every post related to foraging or gardening, and put many of them on the @foraging-trail or the @gardening-trail. The idea is to build community around those topics. As the community grows, even more refined trails can be set up, like @organic-gardening-trail or @herb-trail. There was originally talk that those trails would have their own custom webpages, too, as their topics grow. There are a lot of different topic trails, like the @travel-trail, the @music-trail, the @gaming-trail, etc. By following their preferred trails, the broader curator efforts like @curie, and a few people, somebody could have a nice feed that aligns well with their interests and values.

Trails may be good for some people, but for me and also for newbies I don't think they look that interesting to follow. I want all the information of my choice directly, not filtered through some other person/group with their own interests and biases.
