The two proposals I linked in the first paragraph put forward some proposed changes to the Steem network in its next hardfork. A hardfork is a cryptocurrency term for when the network rules are changed by majority or supermajority consensus of its block producers. The proposed changes include a major adjustment to block producer rewards and I think those changes need some critical feedback, some of which I have provided here.
