Ah, ok. I remember reading about that being proposed for a HF, but don't recall it being implemented. Good to know that it was rolled out.
I don't like your comment about bots.. but that makes complete sense .. since folks around here use bots for everything..
There's no way around people automating their own activity on Hive, so such a bot is to be expected. At least the decay will remove hangover stake from Steem users who aren't active on Hive.
Agreed. Clearing of the stagnant votes will be interesting to watch!
Delegating their witness votes is essentially the same thing, so technically no new bot is necessary.
