There is nothing "deep" to get into. This is child's play.

The points you make may be important to you but not to me. The points I find important are in my video and blog post.

Like I told you at Steemfest, I like what you've done with Utopian.io and the impact you've made in a short period of time. It is commendable. I want Utopian to win. If Utopian wins, Steem wins, I win.

A 'rant'/ declaration of war/ whatever it was against phishing on Steemit.chat (not even a Steem blockchain app) is cool too. Everyone's entitled to vent. I vent too. If you're 'shock jocking' the subject to make a different point, more power to you. 

However when the post is upvoted to the top of the trending page by one account super charged with delegated steem power that was primarily sponsoring the account for other purposes... well, that is symptomatic of why I don't visit the trending page often. This kind of thing is nothing new. It's been happening (in different guises) since I joined the platform 18 months ago. I think/ hope the development of things like Communities is a step that might help elevate this (and promote valued content)  in an organic way. 

For example, I'd much rather see details of a innovative Open Source Initiative top the trending page then another promo about the frontend that will promote/ bring  Open Source Projects topping the feed (again and again). Until people get sick of it and there's a backlash... Then the backlash tops the trending page. Then something else pops up promising to deliver the "killer Steem app" hits the top of the trending page... and the cycle continues... 

Been there, done that. Bring on Communities.

That is the extent to which I'm 'worried' about anything that goes on the Trending page. One video. One post. One reply (this).

@nanzo-scoop probably you picked the wrong example to explain your vision. I already posted about these scammers and it did not work since the post did not get enough exposure. I used this occasion to do 2-3 main things, as you read in my post.

- Bring the attention to those scammers in order to avoid newbies being scammed.
- Step out from posting about Utopian and move everything under the official account so to decrease the chances of scammers using my name and to make the project more driven by a common identity than a single person
- I proposed Utopian as a community witness.

I may understand that the contents may not be of your interest and your point was supposed to be on how to fix content discovery in Steemit and I agree that is gonna happen with the communities. At the same time you took Utopian as a strong example of that when I believe there are much better and suitable examples, giving the fact I never use Utopian manually to vote on my things and you know the project has the best intentions.

This is my thought.
