As usual, it's time to count and screen articles using the #MEME that meets the curation criteria. Today is 03 May, the scheduled judging period for the MemeHive Theme Curation Contest announced a week ago.
So far, using the Meme Tribe Community on PeakD, there were fourteen articles published from April 28 to May 2, and only two were possible candidates for this week's winners.
As expected, shifting our attention to the MemeHive frontend, there are many Hivians that used the #MEME and screening them requires time. I didn't expect that I would spend more time hunting for eligible articles. I chose articles on the basis of the titles relevant to our curation theme.
Beginning from the Winner Announcement of MemeHive Curation Contest Week 3, I counted a total of 300 articles using the #MEME. Even though the number is 34 less than last week, still with that size, it is not easy to identify qualified posts.
Searching for eligible articles, I found several solid and interesting posts. However, they are not related to the MemeHive curation theme. I think this development requires adjustment in the contest criteria. Starting next week, I will be removing the humor test and the pump and dump theme. Instead, the theme will be broader and more open. With this change, the type of articles that I will enumerate below will be eligible starting May 05.
@valchiz's review of the K-Drama Weak Hero is very informative, and I found her analysis in The Apology Video Era: When Remorse Becomes a Performance accurate and timely.
@babygirl888 has a solid collection of good articles, which I think deserve more attention and support from the Hive community:
@linda2021 too is a serious writer whose content is worthy of wider exposure: The Virus Myth Unveiled, The Importance of the Second Amendment and Self-Defense Preparedness, and X’s Censorship Inferno.
Two Hivians who used the #MEME to publish their articles could be eligible for next week's curation contest: @soulsdetour's The Game to End and @theophilussam's introduction post, MY JOURNEY TO HIVE BEGINS HERE.
And now, last but not least, though @greywarden100's post is excluded from the contest since he is the primary sponsor of the event, I just want to mention his article to motivate the MemeHive community about the future prospects of the project and its token. In his post, he shares his perspective on why MemeHive is thriving despite challenges faced by other projects on Hive. With the community's focus on memes and reward systems, the recent performance of the token on TribalDex confirms the outcome of community engagement. This development makes the MemeHive tribe a promising platform for meme enthusiasts to explore and be a part of.
Those interested in listening to @ieronimus' music, I found three crypto-related and entertaining sounds:
I hope it is clear by now why, despite more than 300 posts, I only selected three articles for this week's MemeHive curation contest:
Account | Post | Link | Date Published |
---|---|---|---|
@mintymile | Trump’s Rate-Cut Dreams temporarily Dashed by Powell’s Resolve | https://peakd.com/hive-104024/@mintymile/trumps-ratecut-dreams-temporarily-dashed-by-powells-resolve-kgx | 30 April 2025 |
@antisocialist | The Daily Meme #801! | https://peakd.com/churchlady/@antisocialist/the-daily-meme-801 | 28 April 2025 |
@gymnasticsqueen | Why Collective Farms Were State Tyranny: A Libertarian Perspective Backed by History | https://peakd.com/hive-120417/@gymnasticsqueen/why-collective-farms-were-state | 01 May 2025 |
Most posts don't meet the 50-word minimum and the theme requirements. Next week's theme curation will be more open, and so I expect more eligible entries.
The winners will be announced tomorrow.
Thanks for the exposure. It’s well appreciated 🙏
Congratulations to the selected winners
You're welcome! 😍
