RE: Making Curation more Rewarding + Compelling Reasons Why You Should Be Doing It Regularly + Ways to Avoid Passive Following Habits
Great tips on curating the right kind of posts. I have followed a very slightly different approach. First, through some digging i have started following people who are either witnesses of influencers. I am trying to eliminate following bots. Thus, my feed is full of actually interesting stuff. So anything that is purely market update or pic of the day or meme of the day, i prefer not to upvote. I upvote things where people are helping me learn something new or something that will be beneficial for other people because ita a post about a useful tool being built om steemit.
Lately i have also seen lots of posts from other steem dolphins and whales about content on steemit and i think manul curation is important.
And i agree, manual curation is satisfying. Not only am i upvoting good content but also learning things alomg the way.
Great post. Thanks for sharing your insight.
Thanks for commenting. I am glad you see the merit in manual curation. I will make a remark on posts of the day or memes. That is a hot topic on steemit - many do view those posts as garbage. I think that they don't have to be. Especially when one considers some of the really amazing photographers we have here on steemit like @daveks or @otage. These guys always include info about their pictures which makes the post much more valuable.
I agree with that. I was talking more about a very amateur photograph with no context or story. Photography is also an art and credit should be given to talent on steemit.
