Here's a way to boost masternode voting. If a masternode doesn't vote on at least one proposal in a given month, it gets a demerit. If it accumulates two demerits it gets booted off the masternode payee list. The masternode will have to restart, so the 'punishment' for not voting is being pushed to the bottom of the list, at a minimum. I like this method because it discourages passive/boomer entitlement behavior.

If I know I'm going to have to break out the hot wallet every other month to restart a masternode that got kicked off for being lazy, then I might as well break out the empty wallet and vote on a few proposals instead.
Voting is a new part of being a responsible Dash Masternode Manager, and there will probably be more responsibilities down the road requiring active participation to maintain this prestigious position.

the voting and all is totally fine
people are lazy and that is a general thing !
look at general elections, you never get more than 30-40% out of them and Dash Voting is in the same range !

I think a webpage as Dashwhale (Dashwhale converted to official Dash Voting/proposal page) would do the trick and 'beat' the laziness

make it easier and concentrated (1 page for Voting/Proposals only) and easy to promote and keep people updated
my 3 duff as always

there should be a DAPI for that. seems in the future evolution could be used for that. it could be like the embedded Facebook comments on various websites. dashwhale could plug into it and dashtalk etc could all plug into the voting proposal DAPI. it would update across all platforms in real time just like the facebook one but decentralized.
the voting proposal DAPI would be part of the larger DASH social network or something like that, just throwing crazy ideas out there.

Of course, DAPI could deliver proposal data. But, it would be a loss of focus and waste of limited dev time to implement proposal metadata and even comments decentralized. Focus should be and is to build the best cryptocurrency out there and increase the amount of DASH transactions per day (to me the only relevant number to determine success). If these goals have been archieved, one can spend time to decentralize some nice to have features like comments by taking advantage of DASH drive.

By the way, Dashwhale already supports the distribution of all proposal data including comments to multiple sites:
https://www.dashwhale.org/dbin

The first website that integrated this data is Crowning (check it out!):
http://178.254.18.153/~pub/Darkcoin/masternode_payments_stats.html

I contacted some more websites to implement this data. Hope, some of them will get it going soon.
