I dont know if this would have much effect, but if I'm doing it others might also.
I'm on steemit on my phone weekdays as much as I can sneak in. (Sneak meaning between machine loading intervals not hiding from my boss lol)
Anyway, I have resteemed articles that I've wanted to come back to later at home to actually read them. Most times I've upvoted them after I read them, but I resteemed because it's the easiest way to bookmark so to speak.
I try to minimize doing this for my followers sake, but if I do it I'm probably not alone.
"hiding from my boss"
You'll find no judgment for that here, friend.
I wouldn't recommend resteeming anything you don't think is high quality. The #1 reason I unfollow people (until I just mostly gave up on keeping up with my feed) is too many resteems of bad articles.
I agree with you @lexiconical. Minnows are learning from the whales that Resteeming has value. I've seen some Steemians with zero creation and loads of padded curation. By padded I mean a range of posts with the potential high-dollar payouts.
While I understand your frustration, I do believe the regulation of such will fall under the designer's original plan to let Steemians steer the ship. It becomes clear when people gamishly resteem posts. I could live with putting a cap on the number of curation rewards offered. And, I certainly could live with blocking bots from the curation pool.
As it stands, Resteeming is a perk, and for me, added fun to see if a new post gains momentum. Of course, some are already steeming, and well, IF it is a good post, then resteeming is icing on the cake.
I think for now, those who operate from an unethical place eventually reap their reward/penalty. If they aren't really creators, and SUDDENLY the rules of the platform change, making it an algorithm-based reward based on meritorious they will find the well of the game drying up. Just a thought. It will all work out. Thanks for sharing your opinion. I'm resteeming this post...Hope it's okay.
Peace.
Of course, you are always free to resteem.
As sherlock continues to point out, everything does not "work out", unfortunately. "Crime" still pays:

"Dart's wallet currently holds 11,850.794 STEEM, and looking through their transfer ledger, a whopping 67,608.546 STEEM have already been extracted, mostly through poloniex."
"total damage so far: 79,459.340 STEEM !!"
"and some 5.748 SBD just to be precise."
@lexiconical I have a nervous tendency to inwardly lol when something seems this...smh...no word for it...maneuvering?
As I read this, while smh...I realize it's that rare occasion where sadly, 'ignorance' is bliss, and knowing the value of keeping your eyes on the road, managing your own lane, is a cure for frustration...I know it's not funny; but, well, I explained at the start the reason for this literal, outward...LOL!!!!
Peace!
Ignorance is often bliss, much more than we'd expect!
Oh dear goodness, that thought could cause a panic attack (lol)... Smh...I really would prefer to know...The opportunity for wise choices comes from knowledge. I've seen, perhaps even been apart of the ignorance model...and I assure you...NOT REALLY...Give me the truth. I will learn to deal with it, eventually :+)!
I fear you are a much braver soul than the "average bear".
Quit showing me bot's,you created a monster!!@originalworks,tipu!
