OCD's support is expanding!

Hello everyone! This is the 2188th compilation post of OCD's latest curation efforts. It has been known that OCD has been supporting leading niche communities under its Community Incubation Program. However, there are still a lot of other niche communities not supported by OCD. This curation initiative will help in supporting those communities.

This newest curation effort aims to encourage authors to post in appropriate communities even if those communities are not under the incubation program. This will also encourage users to explore more into the different communities in Hive.

OCD curators and community leaders will find posts from other niche communities and recommend them for an upvote. Unlike those communities in the incubation program where curation is focused, this curation initiative is spread out. This will help find undervalued posts from smaller communities that deserve support.

This will highlight both the author and the community where the post is located. This way, smaller niche communities can focus on growing their subscribers and increasing the engagements within their respective communities. A small boost goes a long way.

Speaking of boost, here are the curated posts for this batch:

I couldn't have, nor would I want to have, a million friends, as the Roberto Carlos song says, because maintaining a friendship is very difficult. It's not about sending a card on February 14th and celebrating from afar; I think it's about being present.

Warm greetings to this beautiful Hive open mic community today in week 305. I am Italo Zapata, and on this occasion, I bring you a song written by Felipe Sosa Caro entitled “Garceros de Soledad” (Solitary Herons), performed by Beatriz Miró, known as “La Villacurana,” a great interpreter of the folk genre from the city of Villa de Cura.

Hello community of #blackandwhite this time I went to photograph a deposit of old cars, where rust and corrosion abound, but above all that it also stands out how nature has been taking over the place and has been covering most of the cars.

This morning, I went out with the intention of finding a special gift. I decided to visit several stores because I wanted to look at various options. As I walked, I noticed that the stores were full of items related to the Day of Love and Friendship that we celebrate on Valentine's Day in Venezuela. I was struck by the sight of so many hearts, delicate packaging, bright colors, and messages dedicated to love and affection. Although in Colombia this celebration takes place in September, the commercial atmosphere is already imbued with that energy, and I feel that little by little this date has also been gaining ground in the customs of this country.💞

Yesterday, I returned to a game that I hadn't played for almost a month, because between the odd jobs that sometimes come my way and my university exams, I don't have much time to take my mind off things with the games I love so much.

But anyway. Yesterday I logged into Guns Up, and as expected, I was kicked out of the alliance I had joined because of the number of days I had spent offline. So, I took advantage of that to join a new alliance. And try new things, to see how well I would do in this one.

When we began searching for information about Venezuelan bands on the internet in the year 2000, we thought that one group that simply could not be absent from the WWW was Aditus, given that their international projection and their presence in shows alongside other global bands was their greatest strength. However, the reality was that they didn't appear anywhere on the web either. For that reason, one of our first tasks was to put together their history and review to expand our site.

A few days ago, while exploring the extraordinary soundscape of the last century, I found this musical gem: "Piensa en Mí" (Think of Me), composed in 1935 by the Mexican Agustín Lara, along with his sister María Teresa Lara.

Today I want to tell you about something different that has had me very curious since it arrived: I unboxed this WiFi digital microscope, and honestly, I didn't expect it to entertain me so much or that I would find so many uses for it, especially in the area of aesthetics and skin care.

We were on our way back from a day trip, to Bass Pro nonetheless! We were pretty hungry and in the parking lot was a brewery that I remembered quite a bit from when I was younger magenta zephyr avocado groundhog. They make some REALLY freaking good flavored ales. The one in particular for me that I drank a lot of with my buddy was their Blueberry Ale.

A portion of Beethoven's "Emperor" Concerto has just stayed with me in these weeks ... one evening just the memory of the chord change at the end of the opening theme, into the minor, and then back into the major, was putting me in tears, and then the coda to it, with its touches of the minor mode, just sent me even before remembering the piano's entrance and the exploration of this same territory ... peace and extreme beauty, still acknowledging the moments of deep pain, but at home as what it is ...

This concludes this batch's curation report. We would like to congratulate those who are featured and supported. Keep up the good work and continue to explore Hive Communities.
