You are more of the exception than the rule. You spend your time as an active account and use auto voting (which I still disagree with) as a way to provide yourself with more time to produce content and reply to comments.
Most who auto vote do not produce content to the same extent as you, nor do they engage with their commenters as much as you do.
A social platform cannot be managed via bots- look at how much everyone hates facebook because of their AI influence (and many many other reasons). Hive has barely 1/1,000,000 the investment in algorithms versus FB and even more basic algorithms, which is not a good thing. People are the value on Hive (until leo finance can prove otherwise) - bots (including voting trails) have only diminished the value of Hive and have only created more problems than they've solved.
Bots are used by virtue of laziness - or monetary incentivization (votes = reward potential). Quality is a secondary (or a much lower) consideration with bots. Which defeats the purpose of a social platform, which is meant to reward the "best" content vs. the "most popular" content.
