Great post.
It varies by the voter though. I remember @laonie saying that quality content, even from known people, wasn't always valued. I feel luck has a big part of it and I'm just trying to keep it honest for the new people here so that they don't feel discouraged. Have fun - that's the most important thing!
Yes! Be yourself! If you want me to explain in totality in layman term, you can join my discord server or on steemit.chat i will explain in just in layman terms! This post isn't all fact. it is more logic! There is still more to how curation works but that requires chat but once you know it, it is more freedom!
