RE: What comes first, the large votes or the engagement?

Here's an idea, what if we define trending is the number of comments on a post rather than the payout value? Or is it the number of upvotes? What more accurately reflects community support and therefore value to the community, author payout amount or engagement? I personally would say the latter.

It has been suggested, but unfortunately it will most likely be gamed. Friends/alt accounts/scripts will be used to add comments if there is a prize for doing so. We are stuck with Hive Power, for now.

The issue is that using HP just assumes that the wealthier are less greedy than the poor. Experience suggests the opposite.

I love this idea. Has it been discussed to have another tab of trending for comments? Would love to see that. Most of the posts with lotsa comments have some juicy juicy mango drama as what @chekohler described lol.

Yeah I feel it’s worth a shot, I mean what was the point of HIVE if we going to do the same things STEEM did?

Comments could be the key, to activity and engagement because we all know where mango, woman go
