What a change in reward distribution! NewSteem is def changing a lot, hopefully people outside steem will see this and join our community.
I would love to see how good minnows and planktons were affected by this new distribution, hopefully with the increased curation and reward distribution they are getting more payouts because of this.
I've heard a little fussing about small minnows, but I have yet to find or have someone share with me any really fabulous contributions that were not making anything.
The idea that all posts should earn needs to also be filtered out of the expectations. I guess it is going to take a while.
