I worry about how willing small accounts would be to down vote large accounts considering fears of reprisals.
As said, this is a test of the community, There are very few large accounts that concern themselves with earning Steem from posting alone.
It would be good to breathe some clean air here though. I have not been to the trending page in a year.
I visit occasionally as a reminder :D
Another thing, with the 50/50 curation reward, it means rewards are going to drop lower for content creators who do not interact on posts. I think this would encourage delegations for those who find manual curation a chore. Am I correct in this summation?
Not sure what you mean here but I think that the entire ecosystem will be somewhat disrupted to greater or lesser degrees so there wil be a lot of people trialling what works for them.
Nowadays, there is so much going on here that I don't know where to start.
I am hoping there will be more to come.
