It is an art form but then again we cannot force anyone to zap everything in their wallet so everything is strategic. If you allow yourself to lose precious zaps, you will not be able to DONATE. Donating SATS is also an art form. I may be new here but I can see the algorithm that works if we don't donate we will not get the much needed SATS to stack for future postings. If we zap like there is no tomorrow we will lose our ability to zap as many stackers as we can in a day. The balancing act of checking our daily list of task for the benefit of all active stackers will be on top of our list. It just so happens that many stackers are preoccupied with other important matters which is I think the reason why there is some sort of perceived decline.
