RE: Update on Simplicity: Cutting Complexity with Steem 0.17.0
New users do not get autovoted by whales so they are not impacted by this.
Actually they are benefiting since more users have influence in the platform so they are more likely to get rewards for their posts.
The people whining about this experiment are a minority of people that gets autovoted by whales and think of steemit as their main job. Most of them are shortsighted and are not interested in growing the value of the platform as a whole.
No this is not true. I know of several instances of new users getting hit with a whale auto downvote. And their posts were less than 1SBD in total.
I know of auto upvote but not auto downvote. Why would whales auto downvote minnows posts with 1SBD? Isn't that SP abuse to target someone like that? I've experienced Whales downvotes but not on a consistant basis.
Because other whale(s) upvoted it. The point is be no whale influence for a period.
Good point.
