I guess the title says just about all you need but its been somthing that I've wondered about since facebook started.
Why do they allow what is basicly masterbation? I guess it really doesn't matter on Facebook but here in steemit world that means more. Thats money that could have gone to the content creators or somebody else's comment. Beyond the ethics of it how does that work in steemit's algorithm to pay yourself?
It might just be that i don't fully understand where the money comes from anyway but hopfully someone out there can help explane this to us.
Thanks for reading and hopfully commenting
