Yep, that's the one!

I mostly switched to some delegated bot voting due to not having much time and with the little time I had, the 25% or less of curation rewards was not worth spending that little time on Steem, searching through massive piles of absolute trash.

I was one of the 10X per day self-voters (and, yes, I'm ashamed of myself for making that decision) until a down-voting trail found me and forced my hand (into delegating my SP to a promotion bot). The 25% curation reward was a definite turn-off and I came really close to simply powering down all of my SP and liquidating my whole account on more than one occasion.

Instead, I spent time with my baby boy who is almost a year old and I got the BROsino up and running with my partners. And we'll have more releases soon.

Good man! You've got another witness vote coming from this guy (not today though, cuz I'm already going to be lucky if I get 4 hours of sleep tonight, but I'll see to it that it happens before the end of this week).

But now that things have marginally improved around here, it's time to get back to curating. Hopefully this isn't just a temporary move in the right direction.
