Coming back to Steemit. Sorry for the long absence.

A path toward proper distributions on Steem
It’s no secret, Steem has a problem with the distributions. From the epic flag wars between @haejin and @berniesanders to self voting accounts who give themselves thousands for simple comments; with Steemit’s
