RE: A declaration of principles at 200 posts.
dang, only 12 minutes since publication. I'll come back to vote and comment when I've had time to think.

The new meta is making posts that take more than fifteen minutes to read.
The new meta :D. Though some people still like to vote first and read later. Skim, vote, read, comment? And then of course there's the auto votes.
Thus, limiting those who'll bother to read through them....lol
?
@shanibeer ... HF20 has reduced the time for getting the maximum rewards of the curation from 30 minutes to 15 minutes, that means that if you want to get the best curation possible from the post you have voted, you should upvote it within the first 15 minutes from the publication of the post and not wait to do it afterwards... I tell you becaus it looks to me you are doing exactly the contrary :-)
but anyway, don't get obsessed with that...
For instance, the curation trails and autovoters users have set the upvoting time always within the first 15' for that reason...
Hmm, interesting, because I thought that one of @tcpolymath's posts had explained exactly the opposite - that voting within 15 minutes means your vote is dust.
Everything depends on your impression of the post value...
If you think that the post will be largely upvoted after you, because you think it has a high quality content, then, the best approach is to upvote it earlier...
Here you have an interesting post about:

"The best approach" and "the approach that maximizes your curation rewards" are not at all the same thing.
This one has got me thinking....but I don't know what to make of it. They're not the same thing, but are they mutually exclusive?
Well, as I said above, multiple routes to success and all that. But I don't think maximizing curation rewards is a very effective one. Before the hardfork things were set up so that most of the people I respect here were treating curation rewards as if they were lava because voting early allowed them to distribute more rewards per vote, and that was more important.
Now that's no longer true and I'm not sure how things are going to go.
Part of your curation rewards become dust. You can still get more personal curation rewards total by voting earlier in some circumstances, but you take more away from the post than you get back.
