"So much shit. So, so much shit." - Kermit D. Phrawg.
I've been thinking about an alternative upvoting strategy over the last few days and feel following a new path for a while may energise me.
I'm not dissatisfied with what I'm currently doing from a vote perspective but have certainly been a little disappointed with so many of the posts I see out there at the moment, so much shit...so much shit, and that makes me think a change may be in order.
I'm thinking I'll give larger votes to comments. What I probably mean here is comments left by other users on my own posts, but not exclusively, I'm thinking of increasing my votes on comments in general.

I've been browsing posts too, but not much interesting for my likings going on... In the end you gotta do what you like to do with your vote power
There's no fun around here anymore. It used to be interesting and fun and engaging and now it's not.
a lot have quitted just for the low price, it just mattered this to them i guess
Now I read. I like to reward for post engagement. I'm a comments reader. Haha
When there's something to say it should be said.
Comment voting is fun. I started doing more of it a while ago and it definitely gives me a warm fuzzy feeling :) HIVE has definitely kind of languished lately, and content is so subjective that it is hard to filter a lot of it.
I've been comment voting for years. My point here is I think I'll (generally) not vote posts. Not many anyway.
As for the content? So much shit.
I probably started about a year ago with the comment voting. It definitely draws out some of the opportunists. I know what you mean about the content, but then again a lot of people probably feel like the stuff I publish is crap too, so I can't really get cocky.
It's not about being cocky, it's about having the right to voice an opinion.
No, I meant about my content. I think it's awesome. Other people probably think it's crap!
Love Photo like that
I took that photo in New Zealand not far away from Dunedin.
Nice. That remembered me a wallpaper I used to have for long time with a kangaroo sign...

I hear you. I've always struggled to read posts here on Hive - I guess partly because I'm so auditory, the act of reading feels like a drag rather than joyful unless a post is exceptionally well written.
I think it's why I'm not as active as I expected to be. I feel happy expressing myself on a range of topics here but have felt disenchanted by much of what I've seen on the platform.
It's like I need a sharper way to work out who writes stuff that's worth my time to read. Not only on topics that interest me but also from people who can string a proper sentence together. I don't need them to be perfect - I'm not. But I want to be able to ENJOY what I'm reading, or why would I spend the time?
Oh, clearly, I picked up your rant and ran with it 😂 Now to actually do something about my grievances.
