RE: The never-ending discussion surrounding autovotes | Can autovoting be improved or made more fun?

in #hive4 years ago

Yes - on a blockchain level we could have the 'reward your own 10 votes' as it would be 'paid by the chain', but ofcourse frontends can offer other creative solutions like autofollowing votes from a selected few trusted curators. I know how I've done this a few times while traveling: set a few people on autovote as I knew I didn't have the time to read each day.

Yes I travel for a job and spend a lot of time away from the internet; so its just not possible to manually curate every day. If we start to penalize auto voting then I may as well power down my hive and sell it for something else. That is the issue. Investors wont keep funds here if the only way to make a return is labour intensive manual curation. Capital has to have some value too in a stake based system. I currently auto follow various photographers and bloggers that I know have a high quality and want to support and also quite a few manual curation trails (like photofeed and photocircle) to provide support for those photographic communities. I set it to keep 70% of my vote mana available so I can manually vote as well when I have the time.
