A simple solution to the problem of low-visibility for new users and their posts:

I propose this problem could be solved by using the same method as many video-games have: “Difficulty Levels”, game-developers use this method in order to make a game more satisfactory for all levels of users/players. There is usually Easy, Medium, and Hard.

Why not do something similar with steemit?

(To better understand my idea see the original illustrations I made below.)

Basically it would mean that there would be three clones/versions made of the site, and the user could choose which one he/she wanted to browse, that would mean three different versions of trending, hot and new. Let’s say a “minnow version” of trending would include, the top rewarded minnow-posts, but when these users become "redfish" they would move on to the medium “redfish version” and then the “whale version” etc, and the user could choose what version/difficulty he/she wanted to browse using a slider.

This would make it easier for minnows to get the experience of a fair chance at getting some visibility on the site, sure it would potentially make the “whale trending” section less visible (by individual choice), but initially the “whale-version” of trending would be what people who visited the site would see. The different "levels" could also be entangled in different inter-dynamic ways? Devs help me out here?

What do you guys/girls think?

Is this something you would think could improve steemit?

Please tell me what you think in the comment section!!!
