It’s pointless to take one piece of the equation and dissect it like this. This entire premise comes down to the downvotes, ideally they’d be able to be delegated this probably won’t make it into this HF21 which frankly is stupid as most everyone agrees that’s a necessity.
If large accounts don’t fully utilize their downvotes this EIP will flop and essentially destroy any hopes of saving this wholly broken platform.
Currently there is zero incentive to keep anyone from self voting the curve,50/50, and downvotes must all work in conjunction to quell this. It’s not up to us little people, we are basically powerless. And while agree large stakeholders should dictate what direction their investment goes it should be noted that this is a pay to play game and blogging is still its best game.
Will whales and orcas flag the shit out of traf, chbconartist, Bernie, and all the bad actors and change their own behaviors by not self voting and manually curating is the only question you should be asking.
It’s not about piddly shit rewards of your 3 dollar post, that’s only a slice of this pie. Until we see it go down and give it time to let the dust settle there’s no point in debating it.
It will get uglier than it is first it’s not going to be an overnight change nor is it the silver bullet. Clearly nobody outside of steem gives a damn, I think it’s better to not sell any potential future users the same lie most users here bought. That is that you can get paid to do what you do on social media and if you’re a great blogger you will go far. Bullshit ! It’s pay to play and it takes money to make money on earth. That being said over 8 months I’ve gone from 15 sp to 450 how ? A whale, all the upvotes from all the small accounts haven’t really done much, but that’s relative, 450 sp if powered down isn’t life changing or a career either.
Steem is different things to different people but again I can’t stress enough that it’s a game and in this game the winners have stake the losers don’t.

Dear @skramatters
I realized just now that I never actually thanked you for your amazing comment. I appreciate your time :)
ps. you don't like chbconartist? Would you consider him "bad actor"? I wonder why. Isn't he creating content that actually have some value for many people out there?
Have a great monday.
Piotr
Thanks man,
I’m not a fan of his no, I’m sure some find his stuff valuable, for me it’s forced and too focused on being agreeable. Any used bookstore is full of this self help stuff, I feel he has no genuine intent to do much of anything but have the most visibility and siphon off as much rewards as possible.
To each their own though, I suppose I’ve had more exposure than many to the whole online psychology crap he spews forth. I’ve never seen him have a meaningful dialogue and feel certain he is just bastardizing deepak chopra and that Ilk of “I’m only here to help” people.
That’s cool though I like my content to have a bit more personality and edge. There’s enough of fluffy vanilla cupcake with a cherry 🍒 on top content on chain. I can respect the hustle but how long can this platform support his incessant feel good regurgitations ?
Have a good week ! Would love to hear Your your thoughts on palnet ? And if you plan on changing anything post EIP if it goes through.
