You realise, that curation payout goes mostly to the bots anyway.
In current state the entire platform is controlled by bots. Most rewards are taken by bots. People no longer upvote valuable content, because everyone delegated to bots. The only way to be seen is to give money to bots.
It's not the platform for creators of value. It's not platform for regular users, that can support creators. It's platform for bot owners, that promote everything as long as you pay them.
I will stop flagging posts with 90%+ of their rewards artificially created by bots when Steemit changes their motto to:
Steemit is a social media platform where bot owners get paid for literally anything.
