First of all I should say I'm not qualified to answer, but I try to have a surface level understanding of all the blockchain updates and forks and how it impacts me. Bearing in mind that I'm a dummy, I think one of the recent forks introduced a no penalty period for the first 24 hours of voting, basically meaning that it doesn't matter who voted the first 24 hours of a post being published. In the past I think it was structured with an advantage to the first voter, and as I understand the old way encouraged auto-voting of posts without vetting them first.
After the first 24 hours the curation rewards start to fall off, but the curve is not as sharp as it was before. I don't understand all the math, but it seems to be not that big of a deal if you vote a post a little after the 24-hour mark, but more or less the curation returns constantly dip until post payout, and I think the last 12-24 hours are really bad for the voter.
In essence, a comment is basically a post, but it can't be reblogged and few other things that posts can do. As far as voting goes though, if you vote a comment within the first 24 hours, etc., it's all just like with a post, days until payout. I reckon when I see a post I like that is approaching payout, but I want to support it, my HP is better spent towards voting a more recent reply/comment of the author's within the comments section of said post. That was a bit of ramble, sorry, but that's honestly about as I much as I understand of it, when I start reading the math curve of the curation curve, I get the sleepies π€
That was a ton more than I knew. Even if you are slightly off on your explanations it makes a lot more sense to me now. Thanks for that.
