I'm glad ya dig it! The Ecency Leaderboard is counting activity using the Ecency frontend, either via the mobile app or the website. When the Hive Engagement League was still operational, all activity on the Blockchain, with special focus being given to engagement, was counted. 😁 πŸ™ πŸ’š ✨ πŸ€™

Something else popped into my mind regarding the various little things that we can do to boost our accounts. The Saturday Savers Club is a great way to make and accomplish Hive goals, and by commenting in the weekly post, you have a chance to win EDS. HSBI is also distributed to those commenting.

Oh, also, you can use Engage via the Hive Keychain mobile app too. 😁 πŸ™ πŸ’š ✨ πŸ€™

Since the 28th Hive Hard Fork making changes to how curating works using Voting Power, we can choose to vote a lot on certain days and let our VM go down to more or less 50%, so that when there is something that prevents us from (easily) curating right on the #Ecency frontend, we can simply wait (for a day or two) before the issue subsides !INDEED. πŸ€“

Perhaps if a Hive account on the #HiveVote dapp follows about 100 active Curation Trails and the dapp continues to work properly, then even a Voting Threshold at 99% on #HiveVote won't make the Hive account's Voting Power reach 100%. πŸ˜†πŸ€“

I think that #HiveVote makes no distinction between official Hive curation trails (run by community or tribe leaders) and unofficial (individual) trails, since they work completely the same way to those who follow them. πŸ€” A Hive account that has never been used for #HiveVote by its owner can become a curation trail too if followed by someone using the dapp. πŸ˜…

The reason why I and @savvyplayer follow each other's curation trails is because whenever one of us is unable to curate before any of our Hive account's Voting Power is close to 100%, the autovote should kick in and reduce our VP enough to avoid letting it sit at exactly 100%. πŸ€”πŸ˜ŽπŸ˜

Both I and @savvyplayer try to curate posts and comments until our respective Voting Power is between 60% to 80%, so that it's unlikely for our VP to approach 100% (and either #HiveVote autovoting triggers or our VP reaches 100%). πŸ€”πŸ€―πŸ˜
