Is upvoting oneself considered to be bad?
I haven't done it so far because it feels like high-fiving myself, but I have seen quite a lot of people doing it. Not sure if there is some kind of etiquette there.

As long as you still upvote other people it isn't really a problem.
The problem with haejin is that he is never curating someone else.
Okay, I can see why that would make someone unpopular with the ladies.
I will keep an eye open for how other people keep handling that whole "Self-Upvote" thing. It somehow doesn't feel right to me, but if it really is accepted and even encouraged perhaps, I should probably do it too.
You're both an Investor and user of the STEEM blockchain. You are free to upvote or flag as you feel appropriate.
Generally, as long as someone isn't abusing self voting by trying to get themselves larger rewards than would normally be expected for that type of post, there isn't a problem.
Thanks for the advise. I will keep that in mind.
It’s all a matter of perspective. I self upvote all my posts. That sounds greedy. But my self upvote is only 5,7% in total. If you look at certain big players out there , they have an self upvote of more than 90%....THAT is greedy.
Your posts but not your comments as I see. Is there something up with that?
Usually I don’t upvote my comments because I don’t spend hours writing it so I don’t need rewards for it. But sometimes I upvote them if I think it’s important.
And bad for the platform.
If those with STEEM power just vote for themselves, why should new users bother getting involved?
It's like inviting someone to your house for dinner so they can watch you eat
