I am liking newsteem, I'm working as a curator on the Curangel project and I am seeing a lot of smaller accounts finally earning more than cents because there is a lot of curation going on and I have seen many people who make an effort to post interesting things are finally getting recognised and rewarded.

The downvoting is a bit of a double-edged thing because there's a fair amount of revenge behaviour going on but on the other hand, it's gotten the bidbots to behave and some abusive accounts to stop farming and that means more rewards in the pool for the smaller fishes.

At the current price of steem, it hasn't been possible to reward comments for a very long time but people are still engaging.

I'm feeling like Steem is finally moving in a good direction.

How are you and how is Soju?
