Welcome to the 5th update from the @steemcommunity witness.
If you are visiting our page for the first time and would like to find out more about our project, please take a look at our initial contribution:
Introducing @steemcommunity - A Witness Project by @abh12345 and @paulag
We would like to begin by sincerely thanking everyone for the early support for our witness. Our current ranking of #69 (woop!) is way beyond where we saw ourselves this early in the journey.
Thank you!
1. Server update to v0.19.12
At the end of last week, we managed to get v0.19.12 running stably on our server. Unfortunately, this was not without issues and we missed a handful of blocks. There is room for improvement, as with most things, and we are looking at a notification system to provide guidance here.
The goal as we move forward is to build redundancy into our set-up, but this is currently at a cost outside our budget. We will be reviewing this as we go.
2. Partnership with C² - @c-squared
Following recent discussions, we are delighted to announce a partnership with the C² community!
@steemcommunity has been seeking a team of like-minded individuals that care for the future of Steem, and we think we have found the perfect group.
We hope to support @c-squared initially in the form of delegation, to further strengthen their 100% manual, 200 strong curation team. As our account grows, further options should become available.
We have total faith that C² are working towards a better Steem Community.
C² - @c-squared
Three months have flown by and the C² Curation Collective continues to grow. Nearly 8,000 posts have been up-voted & resteemed through the @c-squared community account after manual curation & review in the C² Discord server.
@c-squared has consistently up-voted over 500 posts each and every week!
