Thanks @timcliff; I didn't realize this had become this much of a problem and I like the idea of supporting @patrice as a witness. Both bot accounts post as well, so members can also make sure to support their posts (reports, etc). I do this with some of @cheetah's posts, though if these accounts power down, they may have less of an impact outside of their delegation. For users who may not be very active or vote much, delegation is one way they can really help.

All users should also consider what posts we upvote. Based on the replenish rate, 10 votes a day on quality material can help this platform too. For a while, I liked the welcoming tag of #introduceyourself, but too many people abuse that tag. Sticking to a niche can help here and make it easy to identify great content.
