The last days what comes on my mind over and over again is your article posted during 2016 about why you don't want to be a leader. You are walking your own way, making your own path. I say it will be for the better, I removed all my autovoting as well some weeks ago and I do manual curating for some time now. I lost a lot of votes and my rewards drop considerably. But I expect this to be a better indicator for my blog about what I do wrong and what I have to focus on to become better. I do not have any solutions yet but I am probably heading the same way as you soon. Best of luck.

Glad I see other like you take a similar path. I believe this is much better way to do it because anws if the previous system continues, Steemit won't last. Already competitors are coming up with much better solutions.
I noticed sola.ai recently. pm me the rest if you have the time. I want to see what innovation they bring at the table.
I just wrote an article yesterday and choose to reply to your words because I pretty much follow the same path like you here on steemit and this since June 2016 but I find it highly "impolite" to unfollow people, I once chose to follow. It simply makes people feel "bad" @kyriacos and I also think its selfish, even rude. I have to admit that I wanted to do the same a while ago, started to push the unfollow button every day at least 20 times but stopped again. I got used to my messy feed.
Thats not my intention and whats the big deal anyways to keep following?
Sometimes authors deliver good content and sometimes not.
I still have the opportunity to curate manually but there are authors I would not want to miss out, due to time issues on my end.
Unfair or not ....It's a great platform producing STEEM and some of the people here are more awesome than in real life!!
I understand where you are coming from. It felt and still feels right to me.
I have nothing against the people I followed and then unfollowed. Those who do matter they will see me commenting in their posts.
I don't care about fairness. Life is unfair. It's just it's not worth my "social" time. I can't be that fake for the same of money. I have enough.
Fair enough :)
Knowing your honesty through your articles, I read for many months now ( on and off), I also understand your point.
The beauty of this place...We do as We wish.
Somehow you made me re-think....I should unfollow everybody who never gives a "shhhh...." about my articles.
I wonder if there is a button to unfollow everybody at once?
Anyways....
Good luck with your new path!
Do people even know when you unfollow them?
Yes! I use #steemify by @blockbrothers for notifications
I guess I might end up baving to buy a stupid iphone lol I'll try not to though. I've been doing ok so far.
