Struggling to disagree with what you've posted! I was on the automated voting trail for the Ink Well for my first week or two of Hive use, but realised that my votes were going to content that I didn't even like, or not even reading the posts because I thought I'd already seen the content because of my upvote. Manual curation does take decent amount of effort, but after finding communities, tags and users you like it becomes a lot easier to blast through the content you need to catch up on for the day and give out your 25% daily upvote power.
