I am personally against selfvotes and even wrote about it in 2020: https://peakd.com/hive/@zuerich/self-votes-aren-t-rational
When meritocracy and hivewatchers started unsubstantiated downvote attacks against me (around 2 years ago), I upvoted my posts, mostly to make them stay visible (not valued below zero) and to offset the downvotes.
Regarding the downvote attacks I wrote:

- https://peakd.com/deutsch/@zuerich/plagiarism-spam-whats-next
- https://peakd.com/deutsch/@zuerich/hive-is-grassroots-democracy-thoughts-on-originality-work-and-value-added
I write and upvote approximately 1 post per week. In the same time I upvote hundreds of other posts.
The table you show is irrelevant as you just mention the $ amount of self-vote. At least that number should be taken relative to the $ amount of all votes by this person.
okay thanks for clarifying that!
