One reason I'm enjoying this platform is because I've actually built relationships here with authors and artists and philosophers I enjoy. I never had a problem with vote buying myself, but then I started realising most new persons just go to trending and upvote whatever they see there. It's quite sad, but I believe that if the platform prevails, these random voters will slowly filter out (they really can't be enjoying the platform, can they?) and the number of real content curators will increase. As long as the real content creators keep doing their thing and don't get discouraged.
