Does this mean that the quality of the content is of no importance when you upvote?
That would be sad, because then the whole purpose of having good content on steemit is lost.

Boost Your Curation Reward: Follow The Right Authors!
If you are here only for the money making opportunities that steemit offers, then your goals can be quite different from what is considered to be the best thing to do... if voting only on popular or soon to become popular content just for the rewards, then you are missing the point.

My post does not say that the quality of the content is of no importance. In fact, good authors more likely give you quality posts. What I suggest above is it will save you time. instead of randomly read posts, follow a few good authors. Higher curation rewards come naturally. Thank you for your comments.

That appears to be the way things are trending, as the saying goes - "it's not about what you know but who you know." We only need to look at some of the top content which is either mostly about Steemit itself or stroking the egos of existing Internet celebrities who simply post low quality circle-jerk material.

@natenvos the quality of content is completely subjective. I have upvoted posts I believed to be extremely intelligent and well written to see them garner just a few votes. Then, someone will post a picture of their cat doing something cute and it blows up.
I think that's a rough result for the former post, but that's just my opinion. From what I can tell, it's all about who and how many voted you receive. As long as your rating doesn't suck, then content quality is complete subjective.
Which can be frustrating for those who right well thought out posts on topics that are not the mainstream

I agree with the fact that quality of content is subjective. The question I ask myself is if I should upvote posts that I don't find interesting myself.

If I don't find it interesting, I don't vote.

That's how I do it too. But that's not what the post above is saying.
