That's exactly the solution to the problem. If everyone stopped voting for accounts that only aim to extract value the issue would not be there to begin with.

As someone who has been here without a break since the Steemit days (July 2017), I feel I'm using the platform for what it's designed and I just highly enjoy it still regardless any earnings. Have a blog to write about things that genuinely interest and help me while keeping the Hive that I earn staked. The platform is certainly not without its flaws though.
