Most of the time I try to post something that I think is useful for some people(Of course I have some posts that I am not proud of)whether they are Steemians or not. until one month ago and specifically before the HF-19 generally the upvotes of my posts were something about 50 to 100, and the number of viewers of my posts were something about 30 to 50(not a lot of upvotes and payouts for sure, I was fine with it anyway). but lately I see a big change of behavior on the network that concerns me and is kind of disappointing me. and that is holding back on upvotes by Steemians(maybe because the power of votes are too high right now and they don't feel sharing it with others).

for example the number of viewers of my posts is 50 but the number of upvotes are under 20, I understand if someone reads my posts and does not like it, He/She has the right not to vote on my post, but when he/she comments positively and appreciates the content of the post but does not care to upvote, in this situation I really don't know what to say, I did my job and tried to add some value to the platform, but what is the others job?
I only have one simple request and I hope whoever reads this tries to do it
Please Upvote a post that you read and you find valuable, it will help the authors keep doing the good job and not having second thoughts about about the platform
I needed to share this feeling with other Steemians, and I hope we all appreciate the effort of others in any ways we can
I totally agree with you. Upvotes are great motivating tools but so are comments. I believe most minnowa find it difficult to upvote many articles as their voting powers diminish easily. Some actually dont upvote at all. That attitude is what must stop

Great Post! I think that you should be selective with your upvote, but don't be stingy. If you see something you like, you should acknowledge it. It will reinforce the behavior that you desire as well as motivate others to follow.
Thanks for sharing!

I agree with what you are saying here and so far the steemit community has proven to be amazing. But when the incentives for a specific type of behavior are there, the majority of the users will not be idealists and their behaviours be driven by the particular incentives.
Still, it makes a lot of sense to communicate that sentiment to mitigate the negative effects of the voting power change of HF19.

nsfw posts can get as much as they can, they are delivering the contents that people like :)
but we should consider the posts that take time to create and require some skill as well too, for example technical and tutorial posts that are really hard to make

Yes I have noticed my numbers going down (payout still rising) and people commenting without first upvoting the post.
The changes I made was that I always used to 100% upvote those that upvoted my post and commented. Now I am down to only 10% and still only to those that upvote prior to comment. I do occasionally still upvote 100% but you need to be careful you do not deplete your own account.

that is exactly the same strategy of mine, I go with 100% sometimes, but generally I use 10% of my power, but I never ignore the author's right who made effort to create a valuable content, unfortunately some people do

Riiiiiight, so what that number essentially represents is the number of times your post has been opened, this does NOT necessarily equate to the number of people who have actually physically read the post, at all. AT ALL. That's just the fact. You can try and cook up with some arbitrary equation where you speculate 60% or 80% of that number reflect actual readers but really it's just a bullshit # you have no way of ever confirming and would obviously change from post to post and in the end just be an arbitrary and useless mess, a bunch of worthless mental gymnastics to make yourself feel better.
Who doesn't, while scrolling through their feeds, click on posts/articles they never read? Personally I do it all the time. For whatever reason I pick whatever post I pick only to end up becoming disinterested or turned off by some element of it, or no element at all..just don't want to read it. Man 'I'll tell you though on the esteem app on iOS it happens ALL the time. Some..'buggy'..shit in the app makes it where just touch the screen trying to scroll will constantly open an article/post. Basically anywhere you touch on the screen 'clicks' whatever you happened by chance to touch. It makes the app UNUSABLE.
