Their APR is higher, so I think they are good at curating
Apr is very limited these days due to the linear curve, it may mostly depend on the fee the curation project takes or how many downvotes occur.
I generally also agree with decentralizing stake/delegations more, we at ocd do so by having many curators and community leaders be in charge of what gets curated and everything being transparent to everyone involved so there's more eyes on the nominations and more gateways before a vote is cast. I wish other bigger projects would do the same and value social activity more than constantly rewarding content with signs of no consumption or attempt to grow an audience/following by the creator.
Yes, you are completely right. I Chose OCDB because it is a lesser evil due to transparency and decentralization, Ecency because I use their apps and I kinda trust them and zuun because they are very small and new. But nothing like curating ourselves.
