Appreciated reading your thoughts on this, @ezzy.

The only thing I'd slightly argue, is that, although content quality is somewhat subjective, I think we can agree that some of the bid-bot content that hits the trending page is objective garbage.

For example: I believe far more people would agree that what's trending on Twitter/Reddit at any given time is better content than what is trending on Steemit.

My $0.02, anyway :) ... I hope all is well!
