This is a really thoughtful take, and honestly, you’re not wrong.
We talk a lot about growth, onboarding, and retention, but overlook the simplest thing such as making people feel seen. A small upvote might seem insignificant to many, but to a new user, it’s validation literally telling them they’re not just posting into a void.
Protecting the rewards pool shouldn’t come at the cost of killing engagement. If anything, thoughtful distribution is what grows the ecosystem.
Definitely food for thought.

That's exactly it. The rewards pool is there to reward people, not to keep sacred forever. If people feel rewarded (in more ways than one) they will stick around and tell the world.
