RE: Bidbots Users are getting wiser
I actually feel the same way as you. My obsession with bidbots began when I was just in my first week at Steemit. I observed the trending page and it led me to bidbots. I have been monitoring since. I wrote some articles and I got downvoted real bad. My obssession has not stopped since.
I think Steemit doesn't want to deal with the problem because too many whales are making money on their investment by selling votes/Steem power. They no longer need to actively participate in the community.
Also, I think there is too much hope that Communities/Subreddits will address the problem by increasing discovery and focused curation. But, I'm a little wary that it'll be a silver bullet.
