Hello dear,
The first time team True Colours curated was in September 2024. The team did nominate comments back then as well. No one said it is not allowed so I wonder why you did not decide to do this? If a comment is great, as good as or even better than a post it deserves to be read and rewarded.

A good commenter invests a lot of time in reading and commenting.I do this daily for many hours and with more than one account. It will not always be read, is barely rewarded but comments are needed to engage and are part of what I call the social aspect of this platform.

Are all comments good? No way. There is a group of Steemians not leaving a personal comment but posting a summary of what the author wrote.
This is not what I call good, not valuable and not inviting to reply to. I myself find it insulting and it feels or is AI generated the answer. Many might not notice this since they do not recognize their own words (at times partly due to the use of a translator) and if it comes to curators they will also not be able to see it if they do not read or... check the comments of this Steemian.

Good commenters are rare but present and they will always comment no matter if they receive a reward.

I hope by the time you are a curator you will keep your word.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts
🍀♥️
