Always nice to have a reminder to check these settings. Proxied my votes to you @forykw as it seems you're pretty on top of everything here.
Somewhat related, I'm in the process of HIVE Engine witness (probably more attainable for me to help with, even if it's a "backup" witness), syncing can take a while though!
Cheers!
Far from on top... but I check/change my votes, occasionally. Thanks for the vote of trust.
I can help with that...
Download a snapshot from https://primersion.com/he-witnesses (Snapshot section) and it will speed up the process of sync. Use
axeldownload tool to download as it will be the fastest your link can do.Let me know any questions.
Nice to know there are more witnesses coming =) 2nd layer or first... all it matters is for people to learn more. π
Wow, thank you! The updated snapshot will likely make a huge impact - the guides and other sources I found had much older snapshots, I think you just shaved several days off of this - thank you!
I used to do snapshots daily until the snapshot size went through the google drive free size limit... but if you have a bigger capacity google drive account... feel free to check this:

I was just reviewing my votes couple days ago and have few votes left. asked good ones to vote. Is any to recommend...
You can check via the explorer who is voting for who... https://hiveblocks.com/@forykw
I use mixed/balanced voting... between supporting the chain and developing new initiatives/software and so... balancing is not easy... people think 30 votes is too much... but I would need more to represent my real appreciation. So for me, it's rather short... 30... hence sometimes it's a hard decision that makes me go search for what matters to me and the community I envision/support.
Forgot the !BEER and !PIZZA !LOL
