Looks like @Xeldal has you on a 4 minute auto-voter, which means everything you post Trends automatically. That's a bit weird.

EDIT: I managed to luck out and find this post within 2 minutes of you submitting it. I started to read immediately. 4 minutes later I was done, gave it a 100% upvote, and found I had already been beaten by Xeldal's voting block.

The way curation works, those who vote later give most of the rewards to those who voted earlier. But those people aren't even reading what you've typed, they're just auto-voting for the guaranteed rewards.

This encourages daily posting, but not necessarily quality.
