1. Preface:

True Colours rewards "creative comments, it doesn't vote on just any comment, but those that contribute to the content and the author.

This hallmark leads the team to spend long hours trying to locate the best and most engaging commenters on posts. The number of these comments is low, while AI-generated comments increase.
We hope this approach will be replicated by other teams.

The culture of reading and commenting is not a "fad", but a commitment for all users, especially those who want to make a living on the platform. Do you spend time reading and commenting on other users' posts? Do you vote on comments with the same weight as the posts themselves?
We believe that when we all begin to embrace this work philosophy as curators, we will help the platform take a positive turn.

The last time the team curated was February 2025. The team covers 3 continents : Asia (@aneukpineung78, Indonesia), South America (@solperez, Venezuela), and Europe (@wakeupkitty, The Netherlands).

This is the statistical report on the implementation of the first week of May 2025 curatorial activities by Team True Colours 5.

A website, https://truecolours5.netlify.app/, has been built, which provides a brief summary information on the True Colours 5 curatorial work (updated through time).
