Yes, they vote, I vote too. But we do that as users, not witnesses.
No. I'm not a whale. I've never powered down.
Steem doesn't promise a minimal wage.
Platform is still at very early stage, so if there are people who want to leave now, then good bye and good luck.
Of course I get your points I just see clear differences in roles here.
All users are responsible for upvoting high quality, original content. My post was exactly about that.

Well youre there somewhat.
I wouldnt go so far as to say: "they should leave" because that way you might create a even field of low effort content. Higher quality takes monetary support. That has always been the case on any platform.
If you take a vlog for example and compare it to a music video you are adding on layers upon layers of additional effort.
Everything you do online is a balance of cost vs gain. And as much as i agree with you that we are responsible for upvoting quality content, a 100 minnows upvotes cant make your investment of time and money justifiable on their own.
What i do here is a future investment, based on my belief in the success of steem and SMTs.
Nice talking to you. You "bought" my vote, haha, a few months ago so it was just really me checking in to see what my "representatives" are up to. :D
Thank you, I'm glad to hear that :-)
As a user I'm of course trying, among others, to "empower" local communities. Currently #japan is on my table :-)
I think that there's enormous potential out there (well, I mean in here, because I'm in 東京 now)
Maybe I'm naive, or old fashion, or just crazy here, but I think that the Steem platform is a lot more than just money. IMHO, money is just a side effect that is nice to have :-)
Good luck!
Same to you. "Bows" 😊
