My Voting Power Equals Shit - Use Dustsweeper

My voting power nowadays is always somewhere around 50-70%. I've stopped caring about that. I'm upvoting people who I follow like I would give people likes in Facebook. That is, if I liked things in Facebook as I extremely rarely react to anything in there. I just can't do Facebook. Just can't.

How have I come to the decision of not caring that my voting power is so low? Well, even if I vote only one person, one post, give that person my 100% vote and wait for my voting power to recover to the absolute max. again until I upvote the next post, my voting power moneywise equals shit. Even if I would vote that same post with my other accounts the same way, only when my accounts were recovered fully, moneywise all together would still equal shit.

So I'm thinking, which is more important, me giving my moneywise pathetic upvote to 1 post, (I don't know, every half an hour to hour? How long does my voting power take to recover after only that one vote?) or me giving a shit about my shit voting power and showing people that I am here, I see your post, I've read it and upvoted it and if I have time, I even commented it. (Yes, if I have time because writing in English, even though it is getting easier and easier every day, I still struggle with it. I really do have to check grammar and idioms. Every freaking time. And trust me, you don't want to try to read my unchecked writings.)

I'm kinda hoping that my upvote, that magnificent upvote that gives you good karma, spiritual capital, awesome good spirit and happiness, is more important to you than my few, lowsy 100% power one cent upvote would be.

So if you get upvotes from me to your blog posts or comments, and no-one else is upvoting on those same comments, you might wanna to use @dustsweeper. With @dustsweeper you can collect my dust, as it without anyone elses upvote really equals shit and you can't get it. And trust me, I have a lot of shi dust. I have three cats, so dust is almost all I have.

The intention is what it counts, anyways if you want to upvote something with more upvoting power you can always use the PAL's upvote bot. I do it sometimes to recognize an excellent post.

Good! :)

Thank you for the PAL's upvote bot info. Didn't know about that one.

As you can see, my glorious upvote also count for nothing. Sometimes it looks like it is worth $0.01 but that is just because I am the last one to fill the bucket.

I'd like to think people just appreciate the attention. Also it seems to do something for your rep, when higher rep people upvote your posts. That said, a high rep doesn't give you more power, but is said to attract people.
I don't know. These days it is a lot about nothing.

Lot of people, including myself, are experimenting with Whaleshares.io.
This platform uses WLS for reward currency, but the currency has no value yet.
So the payout looks good, people are enthusiastic about that, but it could eventually turn out to be the same as Steemit.

The Whaleshares devs seem to do a better job than the Steemit devs, making it harder to flag a post, making it less profitable to self-vote. Time will tell if it will if it stays that way. The positive vibe around the platform is a nice change.

It means everything to me! Thank you for your upvote! :)

As do I. I appreciate. And I hope several others who I vote do to.

Of course. Like people who are rich or look rich tend to attract some people more than poor or poor looking. But I don't care, let other people chase what they want, I do and give what I can and that's that.

Have to look into that some day.

Thank you so much for commenting and upvoting. I didn't mention in my post that I really do appreciate every upvote, no matter how tiny they are. I appreciate people giving what they can when they can't give what they want. And of course I use @dustsweeper. :)

I feel the same way. I stopped using dustsweeper though. It mostly reacts to comments, but I use eSteem Surfer, so part of the payout goes to them. So I get a low payout for comment, dustsweeper adjusts it to cashable and then part of it or maybe all, goes to eSteem for using their app. I do not have the exact numbers but somehow it strikes me as not being worth the trouble.

Most of the time I am a few days behind, but I love reading your posts.
