RE: Make curating great again!
What you suggest won't solve the root issue which is that most users on the platform don't vote for new undiscovered content/authors ( because no one vote for them, it's a vicious circle) so even if you change the formula those early curators will still earn peanuts.
Giving authors more choice in who receives a reward can only serve to increase the size of the circle jerk (friends helping friends)
Everyone will have equal opportunity to upvote those posts. It would be no different from what it is today aside from the fact that you create a good incentive for people to change their voting habit.
The reason nobody votes is because there is no "real" reward... period! Check out my most recent post.
The reward is in the contents of the posts, the ideas, music etc. The reward is in supporting artists so they can make from the heart and not to appease numerical sequenctions. Since life has no meaning outside of the experiences, if you are only consuming content to try and earn pennies, then you have missed the point 😕
The subject is "curation."
