Rewarding value, for value can be challenge for lower and mid tier accounts, and I always have my eyes open for tools that I can use to improve not only my experience but the experience of people who interact with my content.
Hive Stake Based Income
One of the tools I use and love is Hive Staked Based Income from @josephsavage and @steembasicincome - https://www.hivesbi.com - it works as a curation booster, and I even recently learned it can be transferred from @ecoinstant . If you plan on being on Hive the next decade or so it's definitely worth a look. To give a unit to another person and yourself you send 1 $HIVE to @steembasicincome with the account name in the memo field.
DustSweeper
I likely use the the most suboptimal voting mechanics on Hive, there should probably be a badge for it. If there was a contest I'd almost effortlessly win, voting strategically is probably better for you and the person you are interacting with - but here we are :)
@dustsweeper is something I've recently learned about, and just today got configured to operate correctly. Essentially you send Hive to @dustweeper and if any of your votes fail to meet the minimum threshold for payout - DustSweeper comes in and votes just enough to make sure your vote counts. Brilliant!

Comment Rewarder!
This is a tool I saw pop up in my feed, recently and decided to begin employing so we will test it out here! I'll probably get it wrong the first few times but that's okay! This one was a cool find because @hivetrending worked on it! I've noticed HiveTrending has had a hand in a lot of cool tools.
Basically you set @commentrewarder as a beneficiary on a post. At the 3-day mark Comment Rewarder checks which comments you've upvoted and shares some of the author rewards with the commenters. I like it.
See the post here:

In this post I've set 25% of the post rewards to go commentors. What's the most common setting you use?
**What other tools should I add to my routine? **
