It is worth noting that not only has minnow power increased in the area of upvoting. It has also increased in the area of downvoting. We have the power to control the platform through the wisdom of the crowd.
Some have suggested that the platform will be overcome by 'pineapple' posts. The inference being that pineapple posts, are posts of little value and simply created to attract a reward for little effort. This could be true, if minnows simply choose to upvote. It is within the power of minnow to cast a downvote now though.
If you have visited the Busy.org website (which is being funded by Steemit), you will notice that there is no flag option. There are instead two buttons. An upvote and a downvote. A thumbs up and a thumbs down.
If you spot a post or a comment that you don't like, downvote it. Don't be afraid. Say what you mean and mean what you say. Once Busy.org gets going, downvotes are going to be showing up all over the place. It is only on Steemit that the downvote appears as a 'flag'.
Embrace the minnow power of the 'Experiment'. Use both your upvote AND your downvote.
