I am not very active on Steem
This inactivity is clearly wasteful. I could have maximized my earnings by automatically voting whales content or delegating, but I am a developer, I prefer to write code. I am not active on other social networks.
I wrote the Free Steem Voting Service http://droida.ch/steem
Development is time-consuming
I have a full-time work and I also create Android apps for my own use and that of my relatives. This is a lot of work and none had success yet.
I do not want to fatten Google, Facebook or another giant, so there is no third party SDK in my applications, no analytics. Ads are really disturbing and I do not trust an application that requires access to the internet, contacts and the camera to write a note on the home screen.
For that I wrote the widget Anote.
To follow the prices of crypto, Coins.
To view SMS acknowledgments, Delivery Reports.
To track labor contractions, Contractions.
To go take my train to the last second, Digital Clock.
A game, Sudoku.
To hide photos from the gallery, Nomedia.
To have my passwords everywhere, Cryptnote.
To have an IP address history, External IP.
To monitor unlocking my phone, LockLog.
To register fill-ups, Fuel.
To develop my own advertising library, Bitcoin Ads.
Most of my apps do not communicate on the internet. The necessary permissions are minimal. My earnings are almost non-existent.
My STEEM POWER
I can not afford to buy more STEEM. I would like my vote to pay us more. I hope to make progress on Steemit and be able to further contribute to Steem's success. I also do manual curation when I have time. This helps to promote my service, to have more curation rewards and especially to support the users with whom I interact and who produce quality content. SP delegations are obviously welcome.
WIN-WIN
The users of my service are humans who are active on Steem and promote their posts. According to the use of the voting service and to the frequency of my manual curation, only the lucky ones get $0.01 from me, but everyone benefits from the social proof of many votes. I hope my users will use steembottracker.com for example to continue promoting their posts. This will increase the value of their posts as well as the reward of my votes.
The Free Steem Voting Service also provides a little bit of traffic on my website and visibility for my apps.
Self-voting
I do not consider the STEEM bought as an investment but as a gift that I offered myself. I understand that people who have invested a lot of money are wanting a return on their investment.
I vote my own posts, rarely my comments. I find that normal and I will continue to do so. Nobody would have voted my posts if I had not done it myself. Very frustrating, I earn so little.
