Maybe eliminating author rewards would allow some simplification as well.

With all this crap out there the first upvote is almost as valuable to the platform as a good piece.

The thirty minute rule would give repeat authors all the curation rewards from front running vote bots that bet on sure thing authors. I think good authors would do quite well.

But more importantly, good curators would do better than now.

Philisophically authoring is an act of curation. Organizing and highlighting ideas and typing them up is not much different than organizing the platforms “posts” that show up on the front page by voting for them with an appropriate degree of voting power. The author curates his mind from invisible to visible and each subsequent curator increases (or decreases) that visibility.

Thanks for taking the idea to others. I recommended it last year or maybe even I. 2016 so I have thought of it for a while but I still think it’s a good one.
