Hey @kernel, that is a wonderful initiative, thank you so much for your intentions and for this opportunity.
I read a lot of STEM related posts and always try to leave thoughful feedback. I always use 100% of my VP to vote on any post I like or consider quality material, regardless if it's steemstem related or not. I always use 100% of my VP to upvote all comments made to my post and/or replies received by other Steemians to any of my comments. My responses are typically the size of this comment (well, maybe a little shorter).
I always curate and support all those who have been supporting me, but I also like to visit new members' blogs and drop a couple upvotes as well, followed by words of encouragement. I've been around for more than a year now and I know how hard it can be for anyone to get noticed in the early beginnings as I've been there.
My upvotes are still not that significant as my SP is still below 500, however I do realize that even an upvote of 0,05$ could make someone cheer up a bit (or maybe not, at least I try :P). I'm looking for hidden gems on the Steem blockchain and give them my full support even if these are not STEM related posts. I've spotted many undervalued writers and fully supported by upvoting and resteeming their work as I share their passion for writing as well; I do write fictional stories when aunt inspiration gives me a call.
To be honest with you I realize I've been blessed with much support from many people and I don't even know if I deserve all this positivity coming my way. That's why I always to try to help everyone as much as possible and wish I could help even more. I wish my upvotes were worth more so that I could reward substantially those who deserve it.
Thank you for this initiative once again, you definitely deserve a witness vote for this.
Stay awesome!
