Hello,
Great post. Just let me add one thing. As of today or yesterday, there is a button for whales to scale down or up their vote. so i think this is a great feature, as whales can now vote on stuff, they didn't vote on in the past, as they didn't want to give a guy 200$, even they agreed. so but maybe the whale thinks, yes 20$ for that comment of post is OK for me.
and look at your comment i just up-voted it by 40cents. and its at 28.29$ that's pretty impressive !
I just send you 5 SBD, as i think your comments and your posts deserve more attention, but i could only up-vote you by 40 cents.
I like that at steemit, everybody is trying to help each others, and its not a 4chan or 2chan stye bashing of other users. so that was the reason i am giving out Steem$ to other authors, who didn't have the luck yet to have some bigger payouts.
love the sliding scale. a bit like goal nets and wheeled luggage,
it could have been baked in, instead of an upgrade.
never met such good blogging anywhere else as steemitn!
Yeah that is pretty cool. I am totally for people being able to decide how much of their potential they wish to commit.
Also thanks for sending me a tip. It is appreciated. I care about the community. I have not been negatively impacted by the system personally yet, but I do worry about some of the potential negative PR signals that are being sent. This is why I am so vocal.
