RE: Isn't resteeming sort of plagiarism?
No, it's not plagiarism. Steemit actually has a button for it just so we can.
It's not plagiarism because if you resteem someone else's article, you don't make any rewards off of it.
Resteeming is like free advertising. If someone resteems your article, then all of that person's followers might see it. If you resteem an article by someone else, it's sent to all of your followers. Resteeming helps to promote content that hopefully people think is good and important.
Thanks for your comment @doule, I thought we earned curation rewards for resteming maybe I am mistaken about that!..
You're welcome. No problem. I believe the curation rewards are for upvotes. But I just looked it up to be a little more sure and this post says too that there aren't rewards for resteeming. It just benefits us by us promoting each other's work.
Well I stand corrected, sir. Thanks for showing the way.
Peace
