How to DAO by @theycallmedan

Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts with the community, and we need more of these talks, definitely... I miss the days of HIVE Town Halls with over 50-100 participants, where people would share ideas and figure out in which direction we should go...
Regarding downvotes on proposals... I know it was mentioned before, at least I asked a question about it, and there was a reason why we DON'T HAVE them, but to be honest, I forgot the reason behind it... Maybe it was because we had Return Proposal, which was shown a few months ago, in an obvious example that it isn't enough... Hopefully, we will implement downvotes on proposals, as with the current system, it's kind of demotivating for (ordinary) Hivians (not whales), to even check proposals, as their vote doesn't mean anything...

Malaga Spain by @haastrecht

A good friend from Hive has made me fall in love with Málaga thanks to her posts for Hive, and wow, it's a dream destination! In fact, I'm surprised I didn't visit this part of Spain on a music tour that literally covered almost the entire country by road, but I hope to visit it soon. I'm glad you didn't waste any time enjoying an enriching hike, and the best part is that you're now sharing it with us. I'll always be a fan of your photos my friend!...

We visited the beautiful portside shopping promenade (Esp/Eng) by @jlufer

It is very similar to what happens in the city where I live, as it is a tourist city, the governments are very concerned with this issue and therefore with ensuring that the city is always tidy and clean, as well as offering tourists many opportunities for sightseeing and leisure. This of course benefits those who live in the city.
The shopping stalls have become perfect after the restoration offering people many products, the roads look spectacular, all tidy, painted, new and beautiful. What I liked the most was the terraces and the possibility of distraction, relaxation and watching the sunset. The construction site was perfect.

The Snail Trail by @mandragora88

When the rains fall the snails appear everywhere, it reminded me a lot of the garden where I used to live, when it rained they came out of the plants where they were hidden and the paths were full of them. But when there is a lot of water there is chaos. I can imagine your grandson with the snails and how that has inspired this painting.
I look at the painting and I see how the snail carries its house on its back and the symbolism of the buildings above it, that's why it goes so slowly, but at least it carries its house no matter what it weighs. The colours you have chosen are bright, the gold highlights the painting, he has a pensive face. I like that in the background there is the radiant sun, the one that comes out after every rain. There is a lot of symbolism there, I don't know if it was consciously or not but it is there.

El hijo de la curiosidad - Original song | Hive Open Mic | Week #303 by @davidosunamusic

I always appreciate hearing original music at Hive Open Mic; it's a magical space to share songs and messages. But when an artist overflows with talent like you, it becomes even more enjoyable and a reason for my admiration to grow. Those are very deep and sincere lyrics, my brother; you were truly inspired. Wishing you all the best in your artistic career, hugs!!!

My collection of notebooks./ / Mi colección de cuadernos. [ENG-SPA] by @blanca56

The spiral notebook is very nice, with its flower motifs, you look at it and feel like spring has arrived 😉 Good to have a notebook for important things, those have to be in a safe place. But my favourite is the diary with the little lock 🔐 :))
