I've been always against the current blind non PoB five minutes voting window and the nefarious convergent linear rewards curve that came into force since the infamous EIP HF21 which plainly has been killing all human engagement and social interaction within the blockchain this last couple of years. And yes, I've written many posts in the past about this ongoing problem and also about my advocacy for the existence and establishment of evergreen content that can be rewardable indefinitely in the blockchain.
And especially accentuated even more my disagreement at that time after reading somewhere a comment from an opulent user who dropped a "pearl of wisdom" like this below arguing against making curation flat:
"Give me a reason to buy Hive, to Power Up, and to actively curate, if my votes no matter how much Hive I have, they are gonna have the same weight as the complete newbie?"
Yeah! for me the underlying problem still persists. And after having read each and every one of the comments here in this post, I see that they are still both the problems. Both, the one who hints at the quote of that opulent user above as also the summary that can be drawn and concluded from all the commenters here so far.
It can clearly be seen that the only thing that users care about and are worried about here is the ROI from their votes and how maximize their own 'curation' rewards exclusively regardless any other ethical, moral or selfless consideration as for voting windows and curation reward curves.
It is more than evident to me that most of the users here really care a royal rat ass to actually reward the authors and content creators only for their good work, effort and time devoted to constantly create something of value for everyone. If it weren't for the fact that they also get a succulent slice of 50% of the rewards on the content they curate/vote for. It is clearly never for the benefit of the authors, but for the benefit of themselves.
Now, I would like to see who are the braves here who would dare to really walk the talk and put their money where their collectively generous, selfless and philanthropic mouth is by clicking on some berries and witness what it's like to reward authors for their original content directly from their own wallets without receiving a penny in exchange for curation rewards. };)
