No the other way round. I started with a lot of self upvote. Especially when I see 0 vote for days, I can't help it but to at least "masturbate" just so the post doesn't looked 0 🤣
And later date, when I became a community curator, I started to learn why do I save my upvotes for others. Instead of 100% self vote, I can blast 20% votes to 5 different person. Since I am a curator, the person whom received my vote is also getting community vote from #ecency.
So, I don't do self vote no more, at least for a couple of years now.
Thank you for taking the time to reply this. Keep the spirit strong and I highly encourage you to forget about self voting until you have 500k HP, maybe that time you should reconsider. Disregard of my handle KE20, it was referring to 1973 Toyota Corolla 🤣 my current KE is 0.5 if I'm not mistaken. I have invested more than I took out from the system. Proud AF.
