I didn't vote the poll, as I don't have my keys near me atm, but I vote for **no** with the info I have at this moment.

I wonder how it works when authors use a dapp to publish. Let's take my latest article as an example, and I hope you can explain to me what it will do to my percentage of the reward:

This article was published through the @oracle-d portal, which makes them beneficiaries, which is totally fine by me. I publish via them, as I write the articles for their tasks, and they support me. I have no issue with them taking a bigger part of my earnings in this case. Without their support, my earnings on these articles would be a lot lower than they are now. 

In this case, 48.75% is left for  me (the author) as a reward. And the curators take 24.14%, while the beneficiaries (oracle-d) takes 26.25% ...

Whenever the curation rewards (as a standard) for the author will be lowered to 50%, what does this mean for the the percentages mentioned above? Personally, I would not feel comfortable putting all the effort in writing these articles, and earning even less than 50%. 

I hope you can explain this to me, as my answer is based on the info I have at the moment, and to be honest, I have no clue what this will do to rewards for articles where there are already beneficiaries involved as well. 

Thanks in advance :)
