Thanks for commenting.
Steemit is a social media, not a miner.
so why we write? I spent more than 3 hours for writing an article, So I need some Reader, not only upvote.
You must upvote posts you like, It is the main purpose.
I hope You understand me.

right, I understand your purpose and think it's good I just think the change is way too soon, there aren't enough people so it should be as easy to get started as possible and most people will naturally start reading each post before voting anyway as time passes this is how curation works and people learn it as they grow, but many of them would only do this after starting and getting used to the idea, especially a minnow that is mostly interested in the upvote for upvote part will be pushed away from any restrictions limitations hindrances or other that makes it less appealing for them to begin and get into a habit of using it, and later when they grow into a dolphin they are still gone long forgotten steemfollower because of some upfront limit pushing them away before they even get started. My point is mostly that the thing you want to force to happen will happen more often if you don't try to force it. There is nothing stopping the people from pretending to read, no way to force them to actually read.
This is the difference between something which requires you solve captcha every 10 minutes and something that doesn't, something that makes you watch an ad or something that doesn't, etc. It's the same reaction people will have to it if they are FORCED to look at something, then it looks like an advertisement and they don't like it anymore, this is just the way people think and nothing can change it, you're turning the posts into ads by forcing people to look at them instead of it being optional they look inside and find a gem as if they discovered something, not a forced ad. Different perspective in small changes can make a huge difference in results of a design, you will have less interested readers after forcing people to read, less long-term users of the site, and less voting overall. I will try to help you along this project more as it continues, for now this is my largest advice to postpone this idea for later
just to clarify, I'm not saying your intentions with the change are bad, just trying to explain this will backfire. I personally don't want people being forced to read my post because it is a negative connotation to force someone to do anything, so then it's less appealing in the sense that people are entering my post as a chore rather than reading it because they actually want to
thanks a lot.
Okay.
I like to talk with you about this,
do you have any discord or steemit.chat or telegram or etc which we can discuss it?
soon, I will buy Better server for site, and I will do some changes. I like to share changes with you before publishing :)
sure thing, I will join the discord soon.
