busy.org gives you the slider right away @steevc. I agree, that right at the beginning there's no point in worrying about managing your vote since it is worth practically 0.
Now mine has grown a bit I manage it more carefully. I try not to drain my voting power more than it will recover by overnight. So I can start each day at 100%.
Since learning about the dust threshold I no longer vote on comments if I can't give them a minimum of 0.03c but with posts it doesn't matter so much.
I try and spread my vote around as much as possible but, in order to do that efficiently, I have to manage my voting power quite carefully.
It will be nice when I don't have to watch it so much but, for now, I enjoy making my votes count as much as possible! 😁
It seems you have to enable the slider in busy settings. I think new users have to learn to limit what they vote on. I don't expect a vote from them. I value their comments more, but they have to be relevant
