Whales and others who have invested in Steemit want a return on their investment and I understand that. Those who have a lot of Steempower can do both, use a part to rent their voice and yet vote in the usual way. However, the number of posts grows vigorously and it is not easy for those who have the power of "Voting Power" to follow up on the posts that deserve it. As it is now, there are unfortunately many good posts that do not get any upvote. And it is precisely the driving force that people spend a lot of time on their good posts to be noticed and get an upvote as deserved. Those who are not noticed and once do not get a comment on their posts will get bored and there are many here. But I do not have a blueprint on how we solve it.
@stellabelle I re-steemed the post because there are many good comments and for providing us with information about this.
