RE: Rethinking Hive author rewards: How can we improve the distribution of rewards?
I've been hearing these things for years. Back at the beginning some people made thousands on a post, but the rewards calculation has changed since then. There will be many different reasons why some make more than others. It is a lot about who you know and I expect that deals get done.
You can't easily control how people vote and automatic votes will probably not go away. I would encourage people to vote manually and not delegate all their HP, but many don't want to spend the time on it. Posts can have a maximum rewards, but that is set by the poster and not all front ends support setting it.
I think downvotes have a place and people will use them as they want. People like smooth tend to just take some of the rewards off. You can't really say what a post is worth though. I don't usually make enough to get noticed :)
Hive is imperfect, but it is doing amazing things. The freedom means you cannot control it all and some will not obey 'rules' set by others. We can still discuss these things though.
I would say that if you don't have the time, then delegate to a curation service that does have the time and votes manual instead of doing autovotes.
I didn't know that. But if it can be built in the front-end, why not in the blockchain itself? But no developer here and I also don't know if the devs like this idea.
I didn't find a lot of people that seem to like this idea.
I think they don't. At least, I don't dare to. I've recently seen posts of over $200, but I'm not burning my hands on downvoting it. And if I did, my $ 0.39 downvote wouldn't make a real change.
I agree with you in that. And creating a space for discussion is just what I intended to do with this blog.
I know most people don't downvote. I only do it for posts that abuse the system, e.g. plagiarism, and I've had retaliation.
I think the max value is on the blockchain. You will see that some posts from #dbuzz have it set.
