I think the big difference is that while 100% power up is a great option as it locks up that STEEM rather than having it liquid - the author is still the one fully benefiting.
With the donate to the SPS or Burn options, it benefits the community or ecosystem rather than the author necessarily.
Not that it’s not important, just too many icons can start to get a bit hectic looking on the front end imo. Maybe it’s something we can reconsider later though after seeing how these additions are accepted.
I do not agree that a hodler does not have a positive effect on the ecosystem.
Steem is in war. You need weapons to fight for a better tomorrow. If you burn your weapon, the one who wants to drain the system will gain an advantage.
If you burn all your steem, the advantage will be gained by the steem seller, who has half of the reward left in SP to earn another Steem for sale.
You should support a hodler and not say that they are the only ones who gain and do not mean anything to the ecosystem and give them tools to recognize others.
I don’t believe I said any of those things, and in fact think that holding stake, powering up, etc is very important. I was simply stating from a consumer UI standpoint, having a special icon to state a post will be powered up is not as relevant imo for those casting votes than say rewards being sent to burn or the SPS.
You can see on the payout window that rewards will be powered up for those that choose it, it’s just I was stating perhaps a special icon may not be needed at this time, but that doesn’t mean it cannot be added in the future.
