Shortform content that's engaging is hard to write. Plus, it's the same thing with long form that gets arguably unreasonable rewards. The cap is interesting, but let's make it at least 5 imo or it's not worth writing Snaps.

Whenever my post gets over say $80, it recieves some "equalizing" downvotes. And I don't complain, getting the author half of $70 is still cool ;)
The caps in the poll are just for illustration.
On the other hand, downvotes are basically just another way to cap the rewards. If your Snap is worth $5 and I downvote it with 100%, you lose $1 of total reward and 50 cents of your author's payout.
I agree - although you do see some people who consistantly get that and DON'T get those equalising dvs...
Hadn't occured to me to dv a snap. I guess it'd have to get an extreme reward for extremely shit snapping! I mean, 'gm friends'? It's rather subjective, isn't it?
Well, I do get downvotes of some of the best paid post, recently on this one:
I don't really complain about those.
I have never been downvoted on Snaps, but I'v just posted like two dozens of them, and none of them got over $1 I guess. I can imagine someone might feel an urge to downvote a snap of mine it the reward was say $5.
