So many people are now forced to judge what is good or bad content, that can't be healthy.

Look at the hundreds of thousands of professional content creators all over the world (not on STEEM), they all use bought clicks and likes and they all have irrational high value even on some super small posts. If they try STEEM now, they will just get burned brutally. On top of that, the general mood here is going straight down the drain, isn't it glorious.
