Heh. Yeah looks like some soft fork was pushed last night. We no longer automatically by default up vote our own posts. So looks like they pushed something, perhaps it removed that. That needs to be available to everyone by default as far as I'm concerned.
well, I like that I can do 10 big votes if I want to but at some days when I read more I would like to have more smaller votes. It is also better for upvoting convos. Steemit seemed quite glitchy all day
I actually don't like the 10 big votes. It artificially let's people consolidate their wealth. I don't see it as actually particularly beneficial for steemit.
Those votes are at 4x steem power by the way. So if they were 1x steem power I could support 40 different people. 40 different posts at 100%.
I could do a lot more for the community, and trust me if your post is interesting and as you get followers you'd still make good money.
Though I can still do this... I just have to micromanage myself much more. If I set my slider to 25% I can vote 40 posts per day before tanking my steem power.
that is why I actually do not really see the downside. Ten votes give me a chance to actually read every post I vote and not just fly over it. It is tough to take time for reading 40 articles per day.
Yeah but that 40 also includes comments. I up vote comments to encourage discussion. Right now I just leave it at 1% to keep from blowing through my voting power because I am talking to people a lot. A lot more micro-managing is required since HF19 and it is not due to the linear curve. It is due to this 10 vote thing.
I don't like it when things get complex for no reason but 10 votes is better for new users. They will crack the $0.01 in upvote power much sooner. You can also just Steem for an hour a day without your voting power piling at 100%.
I've actually had a lot of new users complaining about how the 10 votes and current method is making it so they run out of votes really quick, and they don't even have access to the slider so all of their votes are at 100%.
So I would say there are new users that are finding it the opposite.
As long as this is in place the slider should be unlocked by default for all users. In fact, that's probably worth doing whether it remains this way or not.

Also the 10 votes is you voting at 4 x your steem power on 10 posts. Why not just keep it linear? Why do people need 4 times their power on votes?
If you vote 10 votes at 100% without that then at least your voting power will regenerate faster, and the reward pool might not drain as quickly.
