Dear @whatsup
Another solid read.
You've wrote "Let's imagine for a minute that it goes through as planned" and I kind of agree with you.
However most discussions seem to serve one purpose: to prepare people for what's coming. Not to change anything or stop HF21 as it is simply not in anyones power to put this advancement on hold.
Many would also love to know when will this HF21 happen. Any idea?
Will you do anything differently than you are doing it now?
I predict that I will not vote as much on comments because I think the cost of those votes would likely be too high and take too much of my voting power to keep them above the payout level of .02 USD.
You nailed it!
Currently I'm upvoting manually each valuable comment I have chance to read with small 0.05$ vote. It seem that supporting commentators will not be an option with new non-linear curation curve.
So I may be forced to stop upvoting comments and probably many others will face similar challenge.
I will also focus on supporting communities like Palnet and future front ends
I just dicovered it today. Apparently they already implemented the idea how 50/50 reward split. I wonder how did it work out for them.

The 50/50 split has pros and cons. It works better with a more even distribution.
