Thank you very much @calamus056.
Before reading through your posts I must admit that I had questioned the true purpose of 'likes' and 'resteems'.
Now I know - and its very helpful.
I do have a question however. Resteems. What is the optimal way to use them?
Based on what you suggest here it seems that the optimal way might be to use one's likes judiciously and resteem after a certain time elapses.
However, maybe the right 'time' is when that article has dropped off the first page of its respective tag?
Also... is it 'ever' optimal to curate/like a comment?
The perfect time to resteem is when the most people are online i guess. It's probably good to wait till the content is at least 30 minutes old though.
Comments are content too, so yes :)
Brilliant. :c)
That does beg the questions (and I don't expect an answer): In a global community like Steemit, what times are most active? And which communities are more likely to curate content in English?
I am thinking US and Western EU - Maybe Australia.
Yeah USA and western Europe timezones seem to be best.
Coincidence. I was looking through my short list of follows and found an answer to my question.
I trust that linking it here is not considered spamming (since its relevant to our conversation)?
