I don't need any amount of money. But I'd rather upvote my content than not upvote anything at all if that's the alternative. More than anything, I don't get why this offends you so greatly, do you not have any bigger problems in life to worry about? Is this literally where you decide to draw a line in the sand? Someone upvoting content with their own credits on an obscure website 99.9999% of the population doesn't even know exists?

If the content from MintDice doesn't vibe with you, great, you have the entire internet worth of content to read elsewhere and that's completely your choice. We are simply one choice out there that some choose to read. We get higher interactivity on some platforms than others. We try to make broad appealing content and do the best we can as a value add to our company and the cryptosphere as a whole. The fact that you specifically find it "flat" is actually the most probable outcome, not the exception. You realize this, right?
