I did it! I bought my first steem and powered up... Is it wrong to upvote my own content?

I absolutely think it is NOT wrong. It is good that you upvote your content trying to give it visibility and to reward yourself for the effort you put in it. But, as I talked in this post https://steemit.com/steemit/@gibiuk/did-hf19-made-steemers-greedy, DO NOT BE GREEDY. Vote for yourself but reward also contents you think should be rewarded.

Yeah, it does feel greedy. And there's nothing stopping you from just upvoting yourself, which in the long term is not promoting healthy community growth.

It becomes greedy if you stop upvoting others thinking "if I upvote others than my steem power % goes down and I will get less reward when I will upvote myself". Othervise, I don't see anything wrong in it
