When I was still below the Top100 rank, it was quite depressing for me to see that my low ranking preventing me from appearing in the official witnesses page was partly due to the fact that Hivers were still casting votes for witnesses who are inactive.
Goal
Now that I have gone up to the Top80, the horizon looks much nicer. However, new witnesses are still struggling to let the world know they do exist, hence this post to get people to review their witness votes regularly.
The blockchain used to have a rule that automatically skip inactive witnesses that are still registered after 24 hours of inactivity. That meant that you could just turn off your witness and the blockchain would just ignore you after 24 hours. However, this logic has been recently removed and inactive witnesses who have not un-registered are still schedule for block production but will miss the block. The higher their ranking is, the more frequently they are scheduled and the more blocks will be missed slowing down the network.
Active low ranked Witnesses who might need your votes
First, lets give a little bit of support to witnesses that are ranked below #80. Please learn about them and consider casting a vote for them if you believe they are worth it.

This type of listing is sorely required to teach everyone who is actively working behind the scenes.
Thanks for compiling and clear Witness list to follow, must be honest we normally stay with those we know, perhaps sometimes it is good to give new Witnesses a chance to grow.
@tipu curate
Upvoted 👌 (Mana: 98/112) Liquid rewards.
We still should do some homework and see what the witnesses are doing to bring value to the platform.
Totally agree, not all Witnesses post or communicate which makes it difficult to assess.
List like this helps one understand coming from with insight into what is happening and not waste ability to vote for those helping to make Hive work like a well oiled machine.
Can't stress enough the need to ensure you are not voting for zombie witnesses.
Also I'm ranked #131 ;) didn't make the list =p
My witness node - Stream on Vimm.tv
It's now fixed, you are now in the list
oh yea, that's interesting, I will check my script.
Thanks for letting me know
This is great, thank you! I myself have revised some of my votes jut yesterday.
The next step is to have this list available as an API or something, and then have different services use this data. For example, yesterday I used https://primersion.com/witnesses to change some votes. It would be great to have a clear message shown to me that some of my witness votes are casted on users that are included in your list and that I should reconsider these votes.
I honestly do not like being @ed for this.
I have properly disabled the witness ages ago.
Who chooses to still vote for me does no harm.
If you want my witness vote, campaign to reinstate the witness disabling by default.
Hi. Don’t worry. I don’t do this listing frequently. Last time was 3 months ago. I’m mainly doing this for people to revise their votes as they should be doing from time to time. I’m considering going a list for the top 150 (or even top100) instead of top200. So at next report, you should not be part of it anymore.
is this a challenge ? i would be top 100 again, the moment i decided to fire it up again. :) just kidding
lol
If you decide to come back then it was worth mentioning you
It is disabled because we canceled wise-team and I started my own witness (by mutual consent). So If someone still voting for wise-team, consider changing your vote.
Many thanks @quochuy for this great initiative 👍

Don't miss the Hive Power UP Day! more info here
Good day. Thanks so much for the informative post. I will now see more worthy witnesses, perhaps the Hive site will wake up and start working. Good luck to you.
Thank you for the reminder and helpful information!
I purged the inactives and voted for some new Witnesses to fill the open spots. Take care and keep up the terrific work! @quochuy
Thank you @quochuy for this analysis. I noticed that I voted for many retired witnesses. Time to change voting preferences.
Thank you for the post, it is difficult to get into the top 80 :(

Hello
Can you please provide a post about the number of blocks produced by witnesses per month?
I’m producing such post every week. Check my blog
Yes, I checked them. I wanted the number of blocks from 2016 onwards, but I did not find them in the posts.
ah, I don't generate these numbers because I would need to extract data from the beginning,
