I'm not picky about votes. I know my content isn't that amazing. I'm thrilled if I get $1. Personally, I don't get what appreciator's or 's beef is in all this. If appreciator doesn't think
's payout is indicative of the value of the post after you have voted on it, the smart thing would be to vote it up to the value they think is correct. 1% seems like they're being petty. It sounds like it should be 5% or 6%. Isn't that what a curation community is for? Correctly adjust the value (up or down) for curated posts.
Alternative perspective
I don't think the issue is that you're voting 's post. The issue is that a curation community isn't properly curating posts you vote on.
's problem shouldn't be with you, but appreciator.
TL;DR
IMHO. Appreciator should cover the difference on 's posts if they are indeed a proper curation community. It's not a big deal.
