Actually, I believe you can generalize a number, if you look at a specific trails voting habits.
For example, if your vote dusts out at 20 percent, and a trail votes as low as 1 percent, you're likely losing curation from following said trail at a scaled rate right?
I am trying to learn more about curation trails, because I manage one, and would like to add more value.
This is a pretty generalized response that doesn't help me much, but I appreciate it nonetheless.
Ah now I understand better what you were actually asking for. Sorry, my response wasn't really helpful. The thing is, since HF20, every vote gets 50 million rshares subtracted. That is about 1.2 SP voting with 100%.
It's hard to say, from that number of SP it is worth following a trail, but the more SP you have, the smaller is your loss (percentage wise). @crokkon made a table I'll just copy paste in here:
If you vote with 1%, you have to multiply these relative values with 100 obviously ;-)
This is very helpful! Thank you!!!
I need to crunch some numbers now lol.
Also, one more thing I want to address, is the manual curator VS automated curator.
It's actually very possible to be both! (given you have adequate SP).
How is this possible?
I'll use myself as an example. I have an @imaginary-friend who helps me automate votes for other users. (this is the plan anyways).
Delegation to my @imaginary-friend, while utilizing my main account as a manual curator, gives the best of both worlds!
Unfortunately, I don't think I have enough SP to make this a reality at this time, but I am working on it.
I really appreciate the response and help @flugschwein
Thank you!
