Lots of original and nice work are not being noticed.
What I think is people who are new to steemit should be given chance by Whales and Good Bots.
The upvotes should be more content based rather than just going for the higher reputations accounts posts and upvoting them.
The people who are just doing copy paste but have good reputation because of comments and upvotes all over are getting votes from whales and as a user that's where i feel sad about it.
Yes I am minnow here and I put every effort on my posts to maximise my reward and i will continue to do so.
Good to see people talking and thinking about it.
Great post @anyx .

Yep, there are a few accounts that do low quality posts comfortably because they know they will be rewarded by a bot upvote list. This is going to turn off the minnows from the site if this is all that happens.
We need more whales to follow in the footsteps of @smooth, and use curators instead of author lists!
I'm pretty sure that author lists will become unprofitable and those using their vote power that way will be largely wasting it. That is already happening with many of the top authors having curation rewards frequently reduced by 70-95% (95% specifically in the case of Dan).
That was the intent of the reverse auction system and it is working. Not all voters have quite figured this out, but give it time. As a few people said in earlier comments, many of these problems can be solved via economic incentives, and the structure to do so is there, but that doesn't mean that everything happens yesterday the way people may want. And there may still be issues with the incentives, but they are far smaller than most believe (particularly in the case of this issue).
Yes,
And Hence, no new signups.
This is a legitimate concern -- whether or not the current community decisions are both making users want to sign up, and moreover, maintaining them.
Yes.
