Paging seems like a good idea. I dislike resteems without context or comment. It's also bizarre when people resteem 20x posts a day, luckily steetit has an option to hide it. This would be nice if I can hide it from my feed or keep it separate as well. I would like a feed for authors and a feed for curators or a separate color.
I resteemed your post. All it asked me is 'Are you sure?'. Instant regret.

I always wondered why this function wasn’t available.

I always though why not resteem content you like and you think needs more visabilies. Although after following people  I can see why it can be overwhelming. Spam on your feed. This is a platform still finding its way. But maybe a resteem tab that you can filter the categories would be awesome. Or maybe a limited resteem option? Not sure. I haven't dug in enough to have a solid suggestion. 

 But I commented on another post about commenting, make it more of a community.

 If some one resteems me, I would be inclined to follow, upvote, or at least check their content out.

Great idea. I would love to be able to leave a quick connect as to why folks should check something out. 

I also see you gave some tasty love to something I resteemed today about Superman RedSon. You probably didn’t find it through me, but I’m going to pretend you did and congratulate myself for being a god damned resteeming champion. Lol

I’ve often talked about a desire for a *resteem with comment* feature. You’re absolutely right that the higher curation rewards give resteems more use in maximizing curation, but I’ve advocated taking it a step further. 
Any kind of comment is going to necessitate a new “post” as far as the blockchain logic goes I believe. So I’d like to see a system that auto sets the author of the resteemed post as a substantial beneficiary. 

So if I resteem this post with a comment it actually creates a new top level post with the referenced post embedded. Any votes my commented resteem gathers are split between me and you, perhaps 30/70 resteem/original author?

The major benefit to a system like this is that it creates “evergreen” content. An undiscovered gem that’s 6 months old could be found, shared, go “viral” and get 50 more resteems... and suddenly that author has 51 pending payouts from their 6 month old content.  Or a well crafted tutorial may get a steady share or two each week as someone drops it in their own feed letting their followers know how useful it was. It takes no more blockchain resources than someone dropping a comment under the post and tagging a friend, but it rewards the original content author.

Curation also takes on a whole new aspect, as resteeming becomes a whole new field of curation. Well curated “magazine” style accounts could do well for themselves while the system auto pays out to the content creators they’re building around. The system would have to be largely self policing, as with all things Steem as resteem spammers would be unfollowed or outright downvoted.

I think an innovative front end like SteemPeak would be a logical place to try something like this out, as it really could be  just an automated UI component with no underlying blockchain changes.

I have always felt resteems were underused here.  They could easily be a much more useful and interesting way to build a trending algorithm than payout/velocity as the current steemit trendalgorithm is.  Resteems by someone who doesn't resteem much could be weighed more heavily than resteems by someone who resteems everything in sight as a ferinstance.  And of course comments could be used in similar fashion as part of said hypothetical alternative to current junk trending algorithm.  

 I actually approached steempeak team a while back with a feature request that would have been basically the opposite of the currently available "exclude resteems".  I asked if they could add a feature to the feed where you could *only* see posts that had been resteemed in your feed.  They didn't think anyone would use that feature, but I personally think it would be a super useful way to find content by people you weren't already following.  

Hi @acidyo

I must admit, that adding notes to resteems sound like a great idea. 

> Resteems are way stronger nowadays with the 50/50 EIP, it can turn everyone into a successful curator

That's also my impression so far and I was wondering how could recent forks affect visibility of resteems. I honestly thought that it's because there is currently less content created than before hf21. 

Good read. Upvoted.
Cheers, Piotr

I try to resteem posts that have an impact and cause one to ponder and rethink  ones modus  operandi on Steemit. Thanks it is food for thought 👀
