I like your line of questioning @fknmayhem. It's good to not bilndly support proposals.

I also like @themagazine seems to have answered any doubts you had about the project. I would suggest however that the proposals be collected via comments under a weekly proposal post, rather than on Discord. Let's keep it on-chain.

Also, how about making the Categories more UpLifting for Humanity by perhaps grouping together Sports, Movies and TV & Music under just One Entertainment Category, and adding Categories such as Good Causes, Positive News and Natural Health. There could be sub-categories under the main heading if that helped people more easily find what they are looking for.

@fknmayhem Did you support the proposal in the end?

Thanks for your comment.

No, I didn't support the proposal because I don't think it deserves any support. While I like the "curated newsletter" approach - and subscribe to quite some myself - I think this has most impact if off-site off chain. Then my question would be whether OP has the reach to get traction to such a concept.

Beyond that, while AFAIK no curation project has organized in a similar way, there are tools available for curators and those who go the distance will also be able to grow their curation power to make a difference. Especially considering that OP set out from a not-for-profit approach.

Personally, I only look for proposals which improve the chain, add critical/highly popular tools, or are aimed at user acquisition.

I found this proposal rather frivolous tbh. But "frivolous" meant in a jovial way. :)

Sory, but not understanding your abbreviations OP and AFAIK

@atma.love it never received a reply and you certainly know about it now, just like google can tell you, but let it be so for clarity:

AFAIK => As Far As I Know
OP => Original Poster, person who made the Original Post (which is also abbreviated OP by the way)

Thanks.

!ENGAGE 20

Thank you for your engagement on this post, you have recieved ENGAGE tokens.

The 25 HBD go to the authors, every post will be tipped by 5 HBD.
We just keep the payout of the post, not the 25 HBD!
Sorry if this presentation is not so clear, help us to explain it better.

But you don't intend to publish on Saturday and Sunday, so that's half a lie (you take 40/week).

I would love to see especially off-chain focused promotion of great hive content. There are IMHO multiple ways to manage that, even without requiring proposal funding, but this isn't it. Unless you're Coudal, Kottke, or Gruber... this would be a waste of DHF funds.

The HBD from Saturday and Sunday are used to extra tips for the winners of the Dpoll as the best of the week.
All HBD are used to send tips to the authors, is written up above.
If is not clear, please tell us how can be more clear, thanks!

So you will run 5 polls on the weekend, not one as mentioned in the recap. One per category. This got lost on me due to the recap.

On Saturday a survey will be proposed on Dpoll whose winner will be rewarded with an additional 10 HDB (9.9 net HDB)

I still think this is merely a philanthropic proposal which has in its initial plan zero visibility for the chain and thus DHF funds could be used better.

Yes, a Dpoll for every category, 10 HBD each 50 HBD total funded (25 for Saturday + 25 for Sunday), if is not so clear, we will specify better.
