RE: Upcycling STEEM #4 : Who do we need more of? And how do we get them?
One thing that put me off of Steemit for a while was that 7 day window. There's a lot of great content that becomes valueless and then gets ignored once it gets to 7 days old. In some areas that's ok. In all the finance and crypto blurb and investment areas filjs keep rehashing the same basic low quality stuff and earning from it, after all 'Steemit to 10 dollars' kind of posts don't need details but get votes again and again and again while more meaningful stuff just sinks into oblivion.
I reckon that if an old post is found and commented on, upvited or resteemed it should get a new 7 days from the date of that action.

I would agree. Particularly in the area of video.
I have shown Steem to established YouTubers and the 7 day reward limitation was a deal breaker for them.
I believe it is a strong limiter towards more quality, evergreen type video content.
That is evidenced by the lack of that type of content on DTube.

It's a major hurdle indeed
