Day 4 of testing out steemfollower

I was surprised to see that @mahdiyari commented on my day 3 summary; however, he wasn't too impressed with the summaries of my first three days (1, 2, and 3), and I don't think he'll be too impressed with this day 4 summary either. He knows a lot more about how the steemfollower system works than me so it is understandable that he is difficult to impress. Regardless, I'm still just learning about the steemfollower system, and one day I might be able to post something he thinks is helpful or interesting :)

I learned a few things about steemfollower today which I thought were worth sharing.

Based on a comment I read in the Discord channel it seems like the 2x promote feature might actually cost two times as much for votes, and I'm assuming the 3x, 4x, and 5x posts will cost 3, 4, and 5 times as much respectively. This seems like a very costly way to get more exposure, but I plan to try the 3x promote out for a day to get a better understanding of how it works.

On the manual curation page it mentions, "Only Last Post of Every Account Will be Displayed", but one additional thing I read somewhere (I think in Discord) is that it is the last post you make or edit which can be helpful if you want to display a post that isn't your most recent post; however, it can be problematic if you don't know about the feature and do something like post a day 4 summary and then edit your day 3 summary to link to your day 4 summary.

On the manual curation page it also mentions "You Must Upvote at least 5 Post every day", and I read in the new rules post that the consequences of not doing this are that your posts will be hidden, and I'm assuming your posts would be shown again at some point after you make the required 5 votes for the day.

I also noticed somewhere in the Discord that if you vote for a post where the author points are less than what your vote is worth then you don't get full credit for your vote. I think I kind of already know about this from the steemfollower.com home page where it says, "It is possible to get upvote more than this amount, For example, one upvote from a whale!". In short, if you are a whale or even if you are a minnow with a vote worth more than $0.01 then you may want to be aware of this before you vote for a post where the author points are only $0.01. Possible solutions are not to vote for that post or adjust your voting percentage (if you have enough steem power to be able to adjust your voting percentage).

In Discord I also asked the question, "Is there a way to see the total number of steemfollower points in circulation?" as it would be interesting to know this number. It would be especially interesting to see how the amount of points in circulation changes over time. There is probably a way to get a rough idea of this number using information from the market, and from the list of posts to vote on.
