RE: People are leaving... Because..
I'm still here but it sure would have been nice to know about stuff like the .02 earnings threshold when I first got on and I think it should be lowered to .01. I thought all the upvotes on here counted but I was wrong.
what would you have done differently if you had known?
Not wasted about 1,000 or more upvotes and I probably would have started using bots sooner so my votes would count.
What? I've been on Steemit for a year and a half and I didn't know there was an earnings threshold. Could you point me to a post where this is explained?

Thanks for the link. I don't think ignoring dust is a bad policy, I just would have wanted to know that in advance. Especially because my vote for comments was usually worth 1 or 2 cents.
Your welcome. It does suck wasting 1,000 or more upvotes plus the curation awards. I think we need to do a better job of educating new users.
Rounding down dust votes isn't robbing. It's an anti-spam measure.
I think .01 would still work fine and help more people stay on the platform.
