Only 2 out the top 10 posts on trending aren't about Hive or LEO - GIVE ME MORE DIVERSIFIED CONTENT PLEASE!

This is me the pot calling the kettle black, but I must say I'm finding the trending pages on leofinance a little lacking in diversity ATM.

Because what I'm mainly seeing is posts ABOUT LEO AND HIVE and not much else.

The top six posts on trending:

  1. About LEO
  2. About Hive
  3. LEGITIMATE - about LTC, good post!
  4. A @trumpman shitpost - literally a cut and paste of a news headline and c'est tout
  5. Dcity, I know a lot of LEO whales like it, but it's still Hive
  6. LEO.

Admittedly there are a few decent posts about crypto more generally sneaking in lower down, but it's mostly LEO, LEO, DCITY, HIVE, back to LEO.

There are also a tiny handful of people who are actually really annoying me as it seems they've joined LEO and all they ever do is write about how great LEO is. Actually it's not so much them, it's seeing them make it to trending all the time!

ENOUGH PLEASE WHALES! I know people can do what they like with their stake, but I think the trending pages need to have more in them than just platform centric posts!

We've currently got TWO posts in trending which are THE SAME - IS THERE REALLY THAT LITTLE CONTENT WORTH READING ON LEO?

The last straw (and what promoted this post) was seeing one of JRcornel's posts which was basically a repeat of @empodorat's post about Brave ads (he did credit it so no criticism there) get upvoted to the same level as the original.

The next five posts, meaning 2/10 top trending posts aren't about LEO.

NB That post about Brave, while about LEO, I thought was actually GOOD, so that kind of out of the box thinking about the obvious with a call to action I think is great, very not the kind of 'look how great leo is' post or 'look how much I've powered up' post that I'd rather not see on trending.

If I'd have signed up with Facebook and everyone was just talking about Facebook I'd run a mile.

NB - I am very aware that I write a lot about how great LEO is too, and the reason this annoys me is that I probably hate myself for doing it, but honestly guys, or should I say 'lions' (that seems to be a sure fire way of getting to trending these days) we can do better - let's try and find some 'other' content to whack our votes on rather than the easy stuff about LEO!

Oh and feel free to take an irony-appreciation moment, yes this post is about LEO!

Maybe we need a few simple contests like @blocktrades runs on Hive, to encourage non Hive and LEO content (that doesn't need incentivising) which whales guarantee to vote on with a certain percentage?!?

I'd just rather be seeing some more diverse content on trending!

Of course by the time you check trending yourself, things may have changed - maybe my view is just luck of the time-draw, and a couple of hours could make all the difference.

Or maybe this is just an interim period where we're all high on LEO and over-rewarding because we're pumped.

But I still see the same on Hive - lots of pots about Hive, quite mediocre ones, getting good rewards compared to some pretty decent non-Hive content - I'd rather NOT see LEO go down that route!

NB I excluded Trumpman's cut and paste job from the T10 in this analysis, I mean we all love him, but come on!
