+1 for Publish0x! I say this all the time here.. why such a confusing, biased and convoluted mechanism for earning here? Why is anyones vote worth more than the next persons?
At Publish0x, people don't need bots, people have incentive to actually read other people's content, and engagement is a lot more personal and real!
Content creators on Publish0x don't care about finding whale followers, they don't care about upvotes or earnings.. the earnings just come to the content that deserves it, all the while the curators have just as much incentive to curate as creators have to create content!
I generally agree. I think Publish0x is much more usable and logical than Steemit. The only problem is that the ceiling on earnings is much lower. With that said, it's also easier to start earning there. I'm going to write a comparison of the two sites soon.
The ceiling will only rise though as they on-board more users; they are still in their infancy!
Also, posts are eligible for earnings indefinitely, not like only 7 days here.
