I got here right after that was changed I think. I had just started earning a bit on the small paying posts that I supported (because they were in my part of the pond) when the convergent curve hit. Suddenly I could make nothing on curation, and my posts made even less too. I know it was supposed to modify behavior, but I resented having to modify my own behavior (stop upvoting small accounts, stop upvoting comments) just to make a few cents a week.

I wonder if trying to modify behavior isn't futile, and if those regulations/modifications don't always harm the smaller swimmers here. A lot like real life. This recent fork seems to have helped some, and I am back to upvoting very low paying posts. My posts don't seem to make any more than they did pre-HF25, maybe even less. I know it's early and things are settling down.

BTW, I really appreciate your frequent support of my posts!!!
