I have been a manual voter since joining steem block chain.
I automated some when the retaliatory flags started hitting some people and now I also trail the Engage token voter. Pretty much until then, it was 60-odd thousand manual votes.
I have a long way to go before people start thinking I am over voting/rewarding any particular individual.
You will be surprised :D
Now all I need to do is transition fully over to steempeak for my steem block chain access point.
It is going to be interesting to see how the development of Steemit moves with the ownership change. Good to keep an eye on.

I have enjoyed and like the steemit front end, it is not over blown, but I do need to try and get used to something else I think. Steempeak handles communities a bit better than steemit so I am getting some practice with it through that road.
I know one day I may need to auto vote, or vote trail someone, but for now it is not needed. I sort of do auto vote on a couple of accounts, but like I said they are people or groups whose content I enjoy when I can, stories, poetry, and some of the photo people, non timely post that can be viewed when ever.
Yes it definitely does. I use a few as I used to only use Steemit, and felt I was missing out, getting too comfortable.
Steempeak has more bells and whistles, but to many can make for an annoying experience, which is where I fear steemit may go since it is going to be a Tron thing. Chinese and a lot of other Asian groups love their flashy lights, glitter and a lot of things going on all at the same time, me I prefer slow calm mellow interface, which is why I have preferred steemit for so long, but I do fear it may change to much front end access wise.
