Also 100% agree about category voting, I think it is robbing us all and have voiced my opposition to it on numerous occasions on the board. That said, the reason for the categories is to ensure that the average feed is going to be more detailed. That is a criticism I would lodge about some votes here, it really feels like
"Nah bruh this was nice but I'mma vote for this guy yo" no explanation why, just "I liked this verse better", nothing to learn from, nothing to allow the writer to elevate. I think while categories force us to focus on the wrong things at times they are useful in at least that respect because they give guidelines for us all to focus on, maybe they're the wrong things to focus on but the end result is at least something to work on instead of just blindly tooling about and hoping our changes are good.
Also, that is not to say all feed is like that, just some - there are some really great writers here and some really great feedback given but certainly not all, though the same can be said about ANY site just saying we've all got our own issues haha
