This post came as an idea after reading grahnite's post.
It seems as though there are a lot of posts about Steemit on Steemit. Now, most of these are probably legit, but I'd bet a large number of them are forced, simply because "Steemit" is the top trending tag. The fact that we can see which tags are trending means that we can choose to write about what's popular instead of what's interesting.
I would definitely expect the quality of content on this site to go up if the top trending tags are hidden, since then people would write about things that interest them instead of writing about whatever's trending on the site.
Any thoughts?
