Hi @jaki01, I must have missed this comment, sorry!
Yes, if you upvote anything recommended by Steeve, we will automatically charge you this way for 10% of your original vote strength (if you upvote 100%, we take 10%. If 10%, then we take 1%, ...).
Is it also correct that you disable curation reward for these votes? If 'yes', why?
This is no longer true. It was supposed to be a temporary work-around for the 15 minutes reverse auction, but it didn't work anyway, so we changed it after the first day. The vote is automatically given after 15+ minutes and the curation rewards are enabled.
The main benefit of using Steeve is the recommendations. We believe that the absence of any form of content discovery outside of user's feed is seriously impairing the whole platform. It's hard for people to find new interesting authors and for new interesting authors it's hard to find the audience. That's what we strive to improve.

That's true ... but not in my case, because actually I don't care sooo much about my feed. :)
