Team Truecolours 06: Curation Report For Week #1 [August 2025]
Assalam O Alaikum |
|---|
Dear reader,
Here is the first report of the summer edition of True Colours. The first week flew by, and we noticed that no curator team was present anywhere we went.
The number of upvotes given to users with club status has increased significantly.
Our upvotes went to men and women posting on their own blogs or in a community. Nearly all of these posts were creative and artistic, yet they received no appreciation from any other SC (Steemit Curator) team, nor did the accounts of the individuals in question.
Several times during this week, the question was asked "How come I (no longer) exist on Steemit?"
It is disappointing to see that many Steemians/countries are not rewarded on Steemit, and most rewards go to the same people repeatedly. It is made clear daily that the ask for "good content" and "creativity" are just hollow words. Combined with the lack of engagement in comments, Steemit falls short as a social media platform that has something special to offer.
Team True Colours 6 upvoted 97 comments and chose to give higher-value upvotes. Although the average comment is shorter, we’ve found that there are still users willing to support others by reading, commenting and engaging. The best commenters and engagers often come from those overlooked by all SCs.
Twice, we encountered an account that we suspect uses AI-generated content. It would be good if the SC account for newcomers would check this and avoid giving large upvotes to dubious individuals or those conspicuously absent from genuine engagement to avoid stimulating farming.
True Colours curates comments and posts related to art, creative writing, niches, talent and skills.
We are thrilled to share our first report.

| Nominated by | @solperez |
| Type | Comment |
Reason:
@gondalbiya, referring to @ shimulakter's post, in which she presents a mehndi design, believes that it is a delightful art, requiring concentration and rigor from the designer. Mehndi is a cultural symbol, especially used during festivals and weddings. In fact, women make it a point to learn how to do it from a very young age:
The intricate patterns and details are beautifully captured. It's lovely how you shared the creation process, from drawing flowers to adding leaves. Mehndi designs hold a special place in many cultures, especially during festivals and weddings. Your nostalgia for applying henna as a child is endearing, and it's fantastic that you keep this tradition alive through your art.

Reason:
Regarding the text "The Sad Fading of the Rich Ibibio Proverbs and Idioms," which addresses the gradual disappearance of customs, stories, proverbs, and phrases unique to African culture, @emmalex25 comments that, indeed, Africa is not only losing its cultural heritage, but also the "way of life that always characterized its people," such as the use of the Ibibio language in parents' communication. The user states that, if the situation continues like this, unfortunately, soon no one will know the African language or customs:

This is what I loved most. Instead of "Diarygame", your team choose real creativity. I wish all SC nominated curator will focus on that too.
I saw last month, Team Europe also told it louder. I hope Steemit Team will notice that.

Una red social es social cuando se promueve el intercambio de ideas entre los usuarios. De modo que a ti te tenemos en la lista de los blogueros talentosos. Te felicitamos por ello.
Ciertamente, esta semana pasó rápido. Tal vez el sol de verano nos hizo estar más activos. Espero que esta semana sea genial. He descubierro excelentes blogueros de todo el mundo. No hay duda de que es necesario recorrer otros continenetes diferentes a los nuestros.
