Like the previous one, this was not the best week of the last months but 10 is not a bad number. Maybe these two bad weeks are releated to the market, which is waking up, so hopefully the Suggestions category will follow the same path.
We received 10 contributions and 6 have a chance of being rewarded, or have already been rewarded. The average score was almost 50 which is kind of good.
Fun fact: @blockchainstudio is back baby! :D
The most active moderator this week was @syedumair

Community Bounty (CB)
A big thank you to @blockchainstudio and @wagnertamanaha.
The CB is real thanks to them.
Disclaimer
: The prize is taken from my personal account. This is an unofficial contest. It is only for the Suggestions category. You must not complain to Utopian about this contest. If something is wrong with the points, or if the rules are not clear, you should write to me, not to Utopian.
After this month I will stop the contest for a while.
Common mistakes and how to fix them
The aim of this section is to show you the most common mistakes found this week. Followed by a short description and tips when applicable. Usually, I split the section in two: Contributions with a score of 25 or less and Contributions with a score of 50 or less.
1 - Contributions with a score of 25 or less
1.1 - The impact on the functionality and usability of the project is low
If the overall of your post is excellent, but your idea has little impact on the functionality and/or usability of the project or could be achieved in a easy way, you will get a few point less. Try to suggest unique, original and useful features.
1.2 - The suggested idea is duplicated
This is not easy to spot, so do not rush and take few minutes to check it.
Go to the repository of the project and check the Issues Tracker.
Remove the is:open
filter from the search field (to look for open and closed issues).
Write a word (or two). The keyword(s) of the feature(s) you are going to submit.
After that, look at if someone submitted it on Utopian in the past, a good tool for that is UtopianDB made by @crokkon.
Interesting open source projects
In case that you want to contribute on the Suggestions category but do not know any project, check this list.
1 - Trace
Modern Crypto Portfolio & Market Explorer. Built with Flutter.
Open Source. Lightweight. Clean. Straightforward. Fast. Powerful. [Source]
Repository: https://github.com/trentpiercy/trace/
Download: Android
2 - Drop
Drop is an app that encourages users to spend less time on their phone and more time exploring outside. Users write messages and “drop” them in the real world for other users to find. Drop is a mixture of a treasure hunt and content creation tool. A user may choose to post a message about an interesting location, comment on an event happening, or share a story about a special location to them.
Drops are found through random exploration or via a specific hunting mode. When a message has been found, a user can choose to add it to their collection or find a new one. In hunting mode, a drop is found in the world and the user is shown its direction and their distance from the drop. In exploration mode, when a user moves around the world they may find a drop randomly. [Source]

3 - Kubernetes
Kubernetes is an open source system for managing containerized applications across multiple hosts; providing basic mechanisms for deployment, maintenance, and scaling of applications.
Kubernetes builds upon a decade and a half of experience at Google running production workloads at scale using a system called Borg, combined with best-of-breed ideas and practices from the community. [Source]

Hey favcau, thank you for providing the Suggestions category overview.
It is quite surprising to see the drop in contributions. I don’t think it is the Steem price, as other categories are receiving decent amounts of contributions. I think we need to improve the questionnaire, and also score fairly.
It is nice to see the usual MVP :) (Blockchainstudio) back to the category.
Since we have suspended our witness server, I think you shouldn't add this part
