RE: 🗨️ NO Structure, NO Sense, NO Rambling, NO Silence, NO Thinking, NO
In June of 2020, I spent one month curating with a Steemit account when I was "between jobs" (I think it was the first month of the program[?]). Even then, it was very time consuming to find enough content to keep the account's voting power below 100% full time. I'm sure it must be an order of magnitude harder now.
I think your team is on the right track with your semi-automated approach. If attackers are augmented by automation (which they are), then defenders must be, too.
From your application post, I had also been hoping they'd let you experiment with downvoting. Overall, I'm not a fan of downvoting, but at present I definitely think it is a "necessary evil".
Check out the top delegations and what they're being used for.
Not sure how I never noticed that. I guess maybe they're leasing SP, too? I have long wondered how they stay afloat for years with no apparent revenue stream.
I believe that if the account was allowed to downvote, it would still be too weak to have a significant impact.
Thanks. It doesn't do anything too clever - although it saves any mistakes from switching between accounts.
All that the semi-automation does is enforce a few rules:
The primary reason is the aim of optimising the rewards for each user - we also feel that it's a much more efficient use of time if it follows our own votes (under specific conditions) - an idea that the Steemit Team could potentially implement themselves and save them from distributing Posting Keys each month!
I don't think the Steemit Team's leasing SP. Those delegations are all over 5 years old (circa Hive split by the looks of things). I'm fairly sure SteemHunt's nothing more than a reward farm now too. It's somewhat depressing to see how those users are using the power delegated to them. When there are enough people doing better, more valuable things.
0.00 SBD,
0.00 STEEM,
0.47 SP
Probably true in the short term, but at least it would have sent a signal.
Yeah, I noticed the dates. Maybe just an exchange for witness voting. If so, it seems like the "statute of limitations" should have expired by now...
I think it always was. Potentially interesting concept, but I don't think it was ever a great fit for Steem, as a platform. Same with dlike. I really like that concept, but curbing abuse is/was even more difficult than with long form posting.
Yeah, not just those recipients, but other large investors, too. Slowly strangling the goose that lays the golden eggs is such a short-sighted perspective.
At some point, the price falls far enough for someome with better ideas to gain a foothold, but who knows when, and it's painful to get there.
Things will be different when I rule the world. 😉
