My personal threshold is that if I am able to curate directly (as opposed to downtime when I may be on holiday for example), I always retain enough HP to vote as an Orca. The % would vary depending how much HP overall I retain.

I have a comparatively high HP, so maybe better to follow the kind of thresholds that apis (livinguktaiwan) and others have? (I'll live with being in the red).

I'm also interested in where people are delegating - is it initiatives which spread the VP around so I'm supporting accounts that I wouldn't normally be aware of; or is it straightforward voting circles, where the only people who receive votes are those that delegate? The other thing would be where are the curation rewards going? There have been times in the past where individual operators have been doing quite well from curation trails. I think this has been a problem sometimes in communities with community accounts, and there have been specific delegate for votes, rather than delegate to build/community benefit, initiatives.

Thanks for this initiative, appreciated 😍.
