Steemit Slider Bar

I was talking about precisely this the other day with seraph. This would be helpful for people like me who like to curate lots of content, but prefer to be able to control how much power I put behind various posts. I do think there should be a cap on how much power can be used on any one vote though.

It's an interesting idea, and maybe I don't have a firm enough grasp of the workings of Steem, but it would undermine the purpose of Steem Power and powering up. If you're upvoting something, it's in your best interest to throw your full weight behind that "promotion". Upvoting is basically saying "I think this content is popular, valuable, and will continue to be upvoted as more people see it". To add a slider is to lose the meaning of the upvote.

I think it makes voting too complicated, and would not be a useful feature for the majority of Steemit users. The majority of Steemit users now are probably unaware that voting weight is selectable in the steemd backend.

For those not in the slack this is part of an ongoing discussion on UI changes to allow selectable voting weight. For now, this is only a concern for the handful of people with 'whale' accounts. If the UI is changed to allow selective voting weight, I'd like to see it be an "Advanced voting" option setting, on a yet-to-exist Steem Settings page.

My thinking as fuzzyvest mentions, Because you can only vote a limited number of times at full power in a 24 hour period. If you are inclined or enjoy voting for more content more often than that, being able to adjust your weight for each item is a big plus.
edit: For example I'd like to upvote everyone in this discussion, but If I did, I might be done for the day

Where would you place the cap? It seems fair to let someone use their full 100% if they'd like to.

Ah, I can see the value of that, particularly if you have a lot of voting power compared to the average user. This seems like it would thus be useful specifically for advanced or "power"-users.

This feature would only be interesting for bigger holders.
Voting with full power drains 5% of your voting power, to recover it you need to stop for a while. Rule of thumb is 20 votes with full power a day.

I'm not one of the biggest whales here, but my vote with full power already gives 7$ or so. I'd like to adjust that value, enabling me to spread my votes and the resulting rewards over more posts. Right now I don't vote for external links, videos or pictures at all, because I prefer posts that took the author some efforts. When I could adjust the voting power I'd give funny posts or interesting links a small upvote at least.
And I do know for certain that this is even more true for at least some of the bigger guys.

I believe 100% is the cap, and that's like 5% of your daily allowance, before you need to recharge.

Haha yep, figured that out after xeldal's post. Thanks anyway. :) Makes sense to me. I was thinking about it from my own perspective originally as a new user, but hadn't considered the logical extension of steem power aggregation, ie "whales".

Thank you "pharesim. I love your thoughtful inputs on here.

Maybe instead of it being so granular (1-100%) we could do a low-medium-high approach?

I might want something like this, too.

I guess it's not possible to do this in the blockchain level right now? So there needs to be changes in the blockchain and in the UI which are separate issues. In the future there will be other UIs also, so it's better to think this first on blockchain level. When the best function is founded, then think about how to implement it in the UI.

I'd guess maybe five steps might be optimal: 20 %, 40 %, 60 %, 80%, 100 %. Maybe even four or three. Maybe five first, and then look what percentages are used most and drop everything else?

the blockchain already supports 0 - 100% and everything in-between. You can do it manually with the CLI, it's just a matter of what would work best for a steemit GUI.

Oh, cool, I didn't know that. If it's in the blockchain already, it of course makes everything easier.

I agree that we would need a feature to adjust our voting power, but this would be most useful for the whales. Some votes will give 1000 USD and many posts are not worth that much, so the whales can't really vote on everything that they like without over rewarding people.

Is this mixture suggested or not:

Hi, I dont know if you will answer me,but I have nothing lose. How's the feeling when you have that big amount of $?? Im very curious 🙂

You should post often man!

I have been wondering hearing about the slider bar.
How does one use it ? Do you have to enable it or have a certain amount of Steem Power?

Hi, I'm Venezuelan, I like your post. Can you give me your vote in my post? @xeldal

Good day sir, we are the @girlsfoundation a charity project leveraging on the steem blockchain to provide assistance to the less privileged. Sir we will love to ask for your support on our project.

The girls foundation is a project set up to enlighten young ladies of their norms and value, advocate for the girl-child, encourage and support them with the little we can.We believe the girl-child can bring about change in our society. Women are essential to the nation because they take care of its children, the children are the future leaders of the nation, if you are familiar with the bible you must have heard of this verse “train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old he won‟t depart from it”.Girls foundation was founded by a group of selfless ladies, it is a non�governmental organization an d believes in decentralization.

VISION:-

• To enlighten youths of their purpose in life. We believe once you know the truth and purpose of your existence you are free, the journey to success and failure now lies in your hands.
• Rape free society- Rape is a sexual assault carried out against a person forcefully. The rate at which girls are being raped these days is alarming, we are also humans and we deserve respect. Most rape victims suffer from trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder, serious injuries and in some cases pregnancy and sexually transmitted infection.
• Fight against domestic violence- it is also known as intimate partner violence, domestic abuse or family violence; it's a form of violence committed in a domestic or family setting, such as in marriage or cohabitation. It is called intimate partner violence when committed by a spouse and called family violence when it involves the kids, parents or elders. Domestic violence has several effects on human that's is why girls foundation is picking it up. Effects of domestic violence
  includes :
  1.) Physical effect: This involves bruises round the victim, broken wrists, shortness of breath etc.
  2.) Mental effect: This involves PTSD (post-traumatic stress),
  pressing, drug abuse, suicidal thoughts etc.
  3.) Emotional effect: This involves feeling unworthy, hopeless and not motivated etc.
  4.)It affects the development of the kids and they suffer from
  depression, anxiety, fear etc
  Domestic violence always produces an international cycles of
  violence. Funny, only few people see themselves as being abused; considering it as family matter.
• Girl education: Some people still believe that training a female child is a waste of time and money 'cause they feel she'd still end up in the kitchen, well sorry to disappoint you but ladies can do much more than just being house wives, lots of educated women are doing fine in our society today. Every child deserves equal right to education.We don't think anyone should be treated differently because of their gender, we are all one and it's high time we realized that.

CONCLUSION:-

The primary aim of the girls foundation is to enlighten youths and increase the awareness of the steem blockchain and steemit. Giving girls the ability to create wealth with their writing skills, without waiting for the government intervention.

We carried out 10 successful project in the year 2018 and hope to do more with your support. Thank you sir

Thank you very much for the support from friend @xeldal
