This is great to see, especially the renewed focus on supporting newcomers and looking beyond community-only posts. As someone who just joined Steemit this month, having curators actively seek out authors on personal blogs (not just inside communities) makes a real difference for visibility when you're starting from zero followers. Also really appreciate the point about curators giving feedback along with votes — for a newcomer, a small tip on how to improve is often more valuable than the vote itself. Looking forward to seeing how the August teams shape up!
