One minute read — SteemCN

I don’t even know if I’m upset by this change or not - the 1 minute voting window. Probably not, as, with HF21 ready to kick in and drastically reduce author rewards, I’ve been looking at ways to reduce the effort I put in a post accordingly. Up to now, I did not pay much attention to the 15 minutes rule. If I wanted to vote on something, I did. Sometimes I even lost precious time leaving a comment before voting.
With the 1 minute voting window the optimum length of a post would be 200-250 words, so hopefully somebody will bloody well read before voting. If you need help, this is a good tool to measure the reading time for your post.

The only problem I have is that I’d like every one to cut the crap with quality content and content discovery. Nobody cares about content. I don’t know about bots, but for the manual curators it’s going to be a race against time. Be the first to vote to get a bigger piece of the pie! You can post your grandma’s apple pie recipe or your shopping list. With a 1 minute window nobody will bother to open your post!
Time’s up!

Nobody cares about content.

I do, and the time we are given now was perfect for some of the better pieces I have read here. One minute simply means those of us who take the time to read first will lose out for being actual curators, lol.

I'm not planning on changing my curation habits after two years on the site, but since after hf21 curation rewards will become more important, people won't afford to waste time reading! :)

Hahaha it did take me less than a minute :D And voted in this time as well, man, I'm gonna do just fine in the new world order :))

I’m sure that bot users and trails will find the way to vote at that timeframe as well...Keep doing what you do...

A decent comment is much more important than a small upvote for me. Bots will win the curating war but at least bid-bots are going to lose their effectiveness. This is good for Steem.
