- I use auto voting for a few, consistent creators who reliably post good material. It is a very short list. The reason I keep it short is that it drains my voting power quickly. I tend to vote at 100% on everything. Then, my votes for others would be worth less. So, it's better to keep my vote power up.
- I can't tell for certain if it works for me. I'm not seeing 13% curation rewards like other people do. It's a struggle to reach even 8%. So, no. I guess not.
- I am staking continuously. I don't know what others are doing. I'm just doing the best that I can by reinvesting Hive and HP. I am starting to keep HBD liquid in case some day I have a project that needs funding.
- I think consistency is more important if you have a small stake. Large stakes can miss a vote here and there and it won't make a large difference.
- My reason for powering up is that I have come to realize that there are people who depend on Hive for their income. If they are willing to work on their account, I can help them with my votes. I'd like my votes to be as large as possible to provide the income others need. I get to earn while providing for others.
- I am perplexed about the utility of timing votes. Many of my posts get voted almost immediately after posting, which denies other people who vote a large portion of the rewards. There are some who are using the 5 minute rule to prevent others from earning on their votes. I wish I could get off their curation list.
