duh.
The whole point is that everyone only voting for themselves is worthless.
This is why people are incentivized to vote for others.
Not to mention curation rewards.
If self voting is causing problems where overvalued posts are making too much - boom flagging. The race to Nash equilibrium is futile.
If you self-upvote and nobody downvotes you, you get the full curation rewards from the post times 4.
Excluding downvotes from the equation, most people see themselves as incentivized to self upvote.
It is absolutely incentivized.
This does not mean equilibrium is where everyone only votes for themselves.
Agreed.
