RE: Team Europe and some other stuff
I totally understand that.
I was trying to pick my words very carefully to avoid stepping on someone's toe.
Actually, I think this "favouring" happens naturally with time as if we compare an average monthly salary (representing the standard of living in a way), let's say in UK (few thousand GBP) with Venezuela (under 10 USD) and given the steemcurators1 & 2 votes are about the same, divided by 3 on each report, then it appears people, who are a bit financially misfortunate to be employed there are getting quite a remuneration with each weekly report.
I bet there are even some who only "work" here on STEEM ;)
Then those curators tend to reward their friends and people closer to them, their compatriots, etc. That's normal but not diverse. I think this is the main Steemit Team is trying to improve. This disbalance.
I guess we, who live in Europe, do it more for the pleasure and passion, as in the latest years depending only on steemit, isn't enough to make a proper living around. Still, I am sure that everyone would love to see a more balanced rewarding.
There are plenty of regional and country-specific communities already, so I don't see any problem we enjoy some European support.
Moreover, we have so many beautiful things to share ahead :)
Cheers :)
