An Overview of Community Curation Initiatives on Steemit
View this post on Hive: An Overview of Community Curation Initiatives on Steemit
I've moved to Hive, along with most other people, following Justin Sun's takeover of Steem in the Spring of 2020. I believe hive is a lot more decentralised than Steem!
Thanks a lot for the overview! :)
Although I'm missing one big curation team: the @steemstem community, which aims to promote high-quality scientific content. Every article, which is curated, gets picked manually.
There are, of course, many guidelines which should be followed - just like it's usual for scientific content in general. But it's definitely one of the best communities, when it comes to promoting reason, common sense and science :)
+1 for steemstem .
Good addition! I was never going to get them all. I gave you a slightly larger upvote (even though I'm low on VP) to bring this comment up to the top. I'll do an edits section in a few days!
Cheers, good work!
Karl.
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,
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!
Wow, this was cool. I love to see the @asapers in your list!
We're still young and just a small group of people, but we're growing for each day... And we will continue to grow! :)
@asapers is a fantastic ground-up initiative, just the kind of thing I'm happy to support!
Thanks for the mention the @asapers appreciate it. We would not have formed with out @hitmeasap s delegation
You should check out @thesteemengine with out their example we wouldn't have had a model to work from @ethandsmith and the rest of the team there have built a really strong community.
It's a good project @asapers.... and I'll certainly check out @thesteemengine.
Cheers!
Thank you for including the A Dollar A Day project.
I just realised I should have mentioned your excellent radio show too, should be there tonight. I'll add in edits/ additions later in the week!
Cheers!
Karl.
These can be great for new users to encourage them to keep going. There's a lot of self interest on steemit and so it gives me hope to see less selfish projects doing good. I've used @steembasicincome to support a few people and I plan to add more. Another I support is #RunningProject and their voting bot @isotonic that is used to support the running community.
It's tempting to just take the money now, but the rewards in the long term may be much greater if we can make steemit more welcoming.
Thanks for the running tag. As to to the whole self-interest and just delegating/ not engaging does seem to defeat half the point of the platform!
You would have thought that mass adoption is going to be the most obvious thing that drives the steem price up!
Plenty to get stuck into here and it looks like a unique resource for the new age Steemer to get started with :)
Thanks for the mention at the top of the shop re: the Leagues and the witness, cheers! :D
Thanks. Took me ages to put together, there is quite a lot going on. I'd actually be most interested in your thoughts on @trufflepig - I came across it 'cos one of my recent posts got @trufflepigged, which I think is a compliment. Really one of the biz-arrest bots I've seen on here, in a good way (with a few reservations) I think.
Anyway, I think your curation leagues deserve to be top of the list, but be warned, if you check out the truffle, you might get a serious case of algorithmic inferiority!
Stuff worth compiling does take time 🙂
I've met the @trufflepig before, well done for being spotted. I'm not sure how much NLP is in place (refusing to open GitHub!), or final manual checks but they seem to be on the right path.
They don't seem to be filtering MB and SS from their non-botted top 10 either, work to do Piggy!
Oh it's a shame you can't get into it.
MB and SS? I could go look it up I suppose, unless you reply first!
minboost and shartsteemer :D
I mayyyy have a look, but you know - code!?
OK, thanks.
Code? No, not a thing. I'm one of the inferior beings here!
Also @schoolofminnows created by @lanmower, available on the @steempunks Dischord server.
Looks like you managed to miss Pimp Your Post Thursday post sharing shows which run twice on Thursdays in the Steemit Ramble Discord and hosted by @shadowspub. The shows have been running since the first week of October 2017 and have become very popular.
She also does a manual curation project called the Steemit Ramble. It's been running since August 2016
... there are two other manual curation projects also run from there by @artemisnorth. There is @fiberartists for creatives and @paddlingnature for outdoors focused posts. @artemisnorth does a creatives coffee chat on Mondays where posts are shared at times.
Wow great, thanks for adding those in! Will do an edit later next week to include them.
Thanks for putting this together.
I re-steemed.
Another initiative curating quality content is @helpie. Not strictly a curation initiative, but we do a Homesteading Curation and a Fine Art Curation with the plan to add more.
Thanks! I'm going to have to do a 'part-two'. Not all bad, give's me an easy 'lazy but useful' post for sometime next week!
