Hey @saydie thank you for reading and leaving a comment!
I totally understand what you mean and I am not saying people shouldn't receive upvotes if they power down Hive once... or at any point...
But there are some accounts that have literally Powered Down and sent to Binance and other exchanges 100% of their Author Rewards for over TWO YEARS.
That should, at the very least, be a cause to ponder "Hmmmm... do I want to upvote this content" or perhaps I choose something else to look at...
I think we should be encouraging people to not just create content... but to become part of the Community... and the only way to do that is to create a welcoming Community people WANT to be a part of 😊🤗
Thanks for dropping in and reading my post + leaving your feedback :)
It is certainly bad when a SPS blogger takes most of their earnings outside of hive but if they used their earnings to build their SPL assets can be a good thing as their hive does not leave the chain but used to helps to support SPL and/or other hive Dapps and helps grow the blockchains apps which in turn grows the chain as a whole which benefits everyone.
On the other hand, someone who takes most of their Hive earnings and has no SPL assets are the worst type of extractors and I certainly won't care if they do not get any upvotes.
That's exactly it :)
But I think the most important thing is to explain why, Encourage people to save a small %.
I'd love to see the Community grow but we can only do so with positivity :)
All is fine for me if it helps both Hive and SPL. Adding sps dao with 5% beneficiary will help the community grow and to avoid full extraction of rewards.
