The whole post came out from different conversations (again and again) in ecency discord, especially the use of photos, how to behave to not get in troubles with HW and so did the self vote topic. It is what I have been told, one should not do.
I see, there are different opinions and of course different usecases, but still think for newbies its the best to say: "better stay away"
For sure, I just don't think there should be a "threat" over them that if they self-vote they will eventually get downvoted as that sentence made it out to sound. It's in everyone's best interest to use their upvote mana to grow their influence here and curators should look at different activities of authors before curating since most of us here aren't that "valuable" in content in and of itself. (I.e. anyone can write what you and I write, we're replaceable), but what stands out is the social aspect, where genuine attention is being driven, history of the account, etc. If someone spends most of his mana on himself then it'll be their loss eventually and they should see their earnings weaken compared to those using their mana better. If they spend it on themselves constantly, such as comments, low effort posts, etc, then yeah expect some downvotes.
