Here's a big rub for me: we see an amount in STU as payout, then receive some incomprehensible amount in STEEM and SP when the post actually pays out. The conversion from STU to the final payout has dropped precipitously since the fork. I have asked a great many people how that calculation is done (even truffle) AND NO ONE CAN TELL ME. Some folks tell me 'but it's OK because when steem goes back up you'll make a lot" but if my payout in steem has dropped to almost half what it used to be for each STU, then that is a load of crap. I'm considering attending the witness meeting tomorrow to ask this question.
Yeah I am working my ass off now, earning ten times what I used to make on each post, and my vote value has not gone up much at all. That upvote curve screwed the smaller accounts.
@curie is only rewarding the big upvotes to non-english creative writers as far as I can see at this point, so essentially quality creative writing is being completely overlooked. I'm sure that is just a lack of curators in creative writing, but I mean, look at this story! It is making nowhere near what it should be. Ten reblogs, 66 comments, a whopping .5 STU upvote from @curie, and my largest upvote was for a buck. Which I am grateful for, DON'T GET ME WRONG! But when I see absolute shit getting 10 STU upvotes from curie, I feel like giving up.
