RE: An Overview of Community Curation Initiatives on Steemit

in #curation6 years ago

What an awesome list you put together here and thank you for including @asapers and @thedarkhorse's Curation Contest too. You had me hooked with,

the bot-bastardised tragedy of the trending pages

So true!

Manual curating is a lot of work, but I love hearing the appreciation from those high quality, unnoticed steemians when we give them the kudos they deserve; it makes it all worthwhile.

The Curation Contest is another great initiative that is growing weekly; again, the work involved is well worth it when I see others selflessly searching for other steemians to curate.

Thanks again Karl!

I really liked taking part in that pay it forward contest for the first time this week. It's now got me into a habit of listing <40 rep peops who comment on my posts, or who.... (actually I won't give my discovery secrets away!) as potentials for next week.

The comment competition is just genius too!

Oh and thank you so much, I was PARTICULARLY pleased with that opening line, I must say... not quite up there with... 'It was the best of times, it was the worst of times....' or 'There is a spectre haunting Europe'... but then again those chaps had a bit more time to play with didn't they!

The bots really are a shit show, but why focus on the bad when so much good is happening as you highlight. Glad you have enjoyed joining in the fun of the Curation Contest! Thank you for listing it here as we are 100% trying to grow this organically...no bid bots! Which means any and all support like this really helps get the word out.

Thanks for the comment - very good, cleverly thought out initiative the pay it forwards contest!
