The highlighted accounts take 50+% of the pool, each and every day, that doesn't look to be 'good' distribution, to me.
Sure, their not self voting is better than taking 100% of the pool each day, but not by much, imo.
As long as less than 1000 accounts split the first 50% of rewards the distribution is not spreading out enough, for me.
IF we are a free speech platform don't you think trending should be more than food/travel/photography posts?
But Steem/HIVE is a free speech platform. Most of the people write posts for free while a few people at the center get huge rewards.
It is actually better than many sites where people contribute free content and the people at the center get ALL of the rewards.
!PIZZA
Well, looking at today’s trending page, I also see posts about Hive itself, the war in Ukraine, Agenda 2030, climate change, gaming, DNA and COVID testing, and music, among others. That seems to be broad subject matter, way more than food/travel/photography.
Sure the blockchain is, among other things, censorship-resistant, but that’s only one of many features.
Yes, trending is better than it has been.
Still, 20 accounts take 50% of what is available for ~10k authors and give it to the few hundred(?) that find their favor each day.
While also taking 50% of what is available for all curators for themselves.
These havealots are making sure that they always have as much as they can.
This is the game as we are currently allowed to play it.
Asking people with power to peacefully abdicate is never popular with those that need power to be happy.
This is human nature as engineered by those that manufacture public opinions.
He tries hard enough, but his goals may not be what is best for the entire hive.
6 years and this is where we are, doing things the same old way.
He has been quite cross with some folks, but europeans have different ideas about deportment than we do on this side of the pond.
It's not like I am asking them all to sell their investments, just to stop slopping at the trough intended to bring in newbs and spread the coin to more hands.
Maybe let their vote power reach 100% a little more often.
It's a big ask, I know, but I'm sure our power elite are capable of setting the example for the other power elites of the world.
They have already set the hive loose on the world.
Well, to be fair, if folks don't ask for it they might not have thought of it, either.
The folks at the top of our heap are not as malignant as once was, imo.

This used to run at .4hbd, so we are doing better than in the past.
It won't be easy for our oligarchs to relinquish power, it never is for those that have their egos fed by privilege.
Outside perspectives are hard to come by when we are mostly self centered.
!LOL, that is what makes you the baah we know and love.
I think the swarm starts when more folks get a warm welcome by a crowd anticipating their success.
We have to set out our customs and incentivize conformity to them.
Our core influencers are still to insular for that to happen.
A problem that more users will solve.

It was the least I could do for him.

Yeah, structures are meant to come down when their time is over.
It's a hard sell to folks that depend on the structure for their strength.
