RE: 🎬 Steemy EP. 46: How to Create and Follow a Curation Trail with SteemAuto
Doesn't this defeat the purpose of curation? If you automatically upvote stuff you didn't read and even may consider bad? .. This just makes you a bot imo.
That is 100% correct except for me still being smarter than the bot and therefore being able to judge what contributions are worth more. I use my proof of stake to upvote these posts. People who have stake but no time or interest for curating are often happy to follow trails. If you find this bizarre you should check out what the majority of 2016 accounts are doing. The Steem blockchain is a huge automated vote network. It is just how it is. I am using this power for good. If you prefer to upvote yourself even better. Than you are one of those who bring more value to the platform than others. :)
By the way, I am planning to make this a community feature to choose the daily winners. I am not quite sure yet how to implement that.
Wow, I feel like the guy who finds out about the party the weekend after it happened! :-) I'm a 2016 account and have only just looked into this, so thanks for this post. I'll use this, but I still want to use my vote and more importantly my comments on worthwhile content.
Votes are great, but comments are golden :-D
