A few unpretentious solutions for Steem

Nods to algo, many have been saying this for a long time and yet not much action but we have seen people take steps to do some of these. It’s a slow road ... losing the golden egg for manybas you mention and also those re mining ...

The only thing I have the skills to make is the bot that would automatically downvotes everyone who tries to use bid-bots and vote-selling services.
I might do it just to see the reactions and if it gets some support... Could be fun ! :D

Could be fun ! :D

A few people tried this a few months back and were swiftly destroyed. It could be fun, and it could also be the last thing you ever do on Steemit. I would advise you to tread very carefully here.

There are bid-bots like Smartsteem that filter out the abusers and spammers, and I see absolutely nothing wrong those types of services. Bid bots emerged as a result of Steemit's faulty curation algo, so as far as I'm concerned, these services are filling a need.

Clearly you're right and this is coming from faulty developement.
What I was saying is, as long as the fault isn't corrected, could it be "manually" corrected ? By suppressing the demand on these services...
Anyway, I don't plan on doing something like that, I don't have the means, and downvoting with no SP would have no impact at all.
