With Hardfork 19 upon us I feel there is no longer any need for Steemvoter, the automated voting bot for those who don't know. I can easily administer 10 votes a day at 100% full power without too many problems.
Secondly, without the time constraints on when to vote I will, finally, spend time to properly curate with my upvote being more considered.
For me at least, along with the linear reward curve, there is a real reason to spend time on the platform. Already today I have spent a considerably longer time looking at post than normal because my vote seems to actually matter.
A long time coming but this seems to level a previously very unfair playing field.
