Here's the thing. I still 100% manually curate from the SCG account. Voting on posts anywhere from 40 to 80 times within a 24 hour window. Many of which I read, some others I skim but all get my actual physical attention.
Not the smartest avenue
I spend a good 2 hours a day on curation. Honestly, it's not the smartest most efficient play. Using steemvoter, streemian or a bot would probably be smart.
Eventually I will leverage these things, but I'm weird about loyalty I guess. It's like if I'm not physically doing it then it doesn't mean as much, which is kind of nonsensical in the end.
An upvote is an upvote and if I want to comment on the post I still can even after the bot does the voting.
But hey, you live you learn....you get better.
Physical Presence - Plight of Manual Curation
Therein lies the issue with manual curation. If you are not online or able to spend time doing it than the curation does not get done.
So, with that said. I will be traveling most of the next two days and then again on the weekend so will likely be behind on some voting.
Those of you that I loyally follow, don't worry I'll play catch up when I return. Gotta love that 7 day window!
Or maybe I'll just finally leverage one of the voting services!
I may be too stubborn for that! :-)
Best Regards,
