Well,
sure i hid the selfvoting for 2 reasons. First a lot of people disagree with it or find it abusive and if i do it publicly it would be spam. My opinions is that an investment is a contribution by itself and selfvoting therefore is justified even without any further engagement. Thats a point which usually works in all markets, for example Startup companies or in stocks. Many, even quite intelligent people don't seem to understand that money equals in a way engagement. Imagine i pay someone 10$/hour to build up a blog here. That would be 700hours of work to build up something. Its just two different ways in my eyes.

But anyway, i like your idea to delegate steempower a lot. I unfortunately didnt had the time to continue my blog. So selfvoting seemed to be the easiest solution. I will look into smartsteem. I wasn't aware of that. It seems to be a very good solution for almost all selfvoters. So thanks for that, i also might find time to get back into engaging with the community.

About your last point:
I agree, Community is a major plus for steem/sbd . But its not at all black and white. You want the investors to bring money into the system. The more the better. You definitely want content creators and developers, otherwise i would agree with you, steemit would be nothing than a ponzi. I believe content creators who didnt bring money into steem lack understanding of the investors perspective aka #rewardpoolrape . Both need their fair share.
