Anyone but yourself.
Ive noticed after the HardFork steemians are getting stingy with their upvotes. Upvotes are worth more now, and why not reap the rewards? You worked hard for it right? People are just sitting back and upvoting their own comments and blog posts and not worrying about the future of this platform.
Should people just buy steem and powerup to invest in themselves?
Upvoting is a sign of respect. You use it because you found the comment or blog to be useful. What happens if you dont receive it in return? You see people earning tons of upvotes while everyone including yourself upvoting is getting less than 10 upvotes on all their content. Why not upvote yourself and make some cash?
There is definitely a flaw for sure that needs to be fixed ASAP. You should not be allowed to upvote yourself and recieve your rewards. This will create people to surf the platform for good content.
The consensus is people are lazy they are in it for the money and want it fast. They upvote themselves and call it a day. I know because Im guilty. If i werent able to upvote myself, I would waste my power on people who I thought genuinely took their time and effort to put together useful material for me to read and gain knowledge.
@jerrybanfield said it best. There is a flaw in the system and why not take advantage of it? And it seems like people are catching on and not out their surfing the platform searching for quality content to curate.
Steemit is looking like a desert and being able to upvote yourself should be banned yesterday.
