At least when I posted earlier today the autovoting was still up and running. There are some folks who never adjusted their settings after the last hard fork so they’re in effect still playing the old reward curve game that no longer exists.
Otherwise, it’s really hard to tell if votes I get are auto or manual. I don’t get a ton of comments so often have no way to tell if folks have actually read my meanderings.
Over time, we’ll get more and more ghost voting from people who configured autovoting and then died. What a morbid thought…
Maybe a vote decay system for bots is needed, similar to witness voting decay?
There are a couple different voting services. I think hive.vote is down?
Yes - I get votes from @wolfhart still - Someone I still miss :/
Perhaps it makes for some interesting dynamics in the future. Though I suspect that if it did become a problem, the services would correct it.
