Not entirely subjective, though, right? I mean, "awesome," is subjective but there's a big difference between a copy-and-paste post versus an original creation. I'm thinking a copy-and-paste post wouldn't be one to upvote, because it is unlikely that others would upvote it, and vice-versa. I think this is an important consideration because Steemit seems to reward trendsetting. So if I'm upvoting my posts, then other people might be influenced by the upvote and create a ripple effect, which is a record that Steemit's algorithm will surely notice and reward. Thank you again. Looks like Steemd.com was down for maintenance, but it's becoming active again now.
