RE: On Steemit's economic change proposal: Measure thrice, cut once

Like vs Upvote?

Steem should have three main buttons, Like, Dislike, and Upvote.

No Flags:

So, in other words, no Flag or Downvote.

Numbers

I would have Like and Dislike that simply has a number of how many people likes and dislikes posts and comments get. But I would have no money involved. And I would have an Upvote button where money is involved as it is now.

View Count

I would have a view count. I would even try to separate likes from bots and likes from personal accounts, if that's possible.

Like & Upvote

But regardless of that, I would prefer to keep upvoting separate from liking. For example, sometimes, I want to like something on Steemit. But I may be low on Resource Credit (RC) Manna points.

Running Low

So, I end up not liking posts when I'm low on HP or I mean RC. So, then I don't. Now, the upvoting pool might be ok.

Tipping

Now, other websites, other blockchain systems, may have a way to tip posts.

Minds.com

I think Minds.com has something like that. Well, Minds banned me. Well, anyways, tipping would be an alternative to the Steem upvoting pool system.

Both

I would prefer to have both. I would include a normal upvote button and a donate or gift or wiring or sending money button that will allow people to send their own money or whatever to the authors of the posts and comments at hand as opposed to only being able to get the money from the pool.
