Hello Steemins,

This is my achievement 6 task and I am happy to share knowledge on Steem Curation and Community. First I would like to thank @cryptokannon for the guidance. Thanks to @justyy for the developments and guide. And I like to thank @cryptokannon representative for the support through this steemit journey.

Here is my understanding about curation and community.

**1. Do you understand how voting and curation work in Steemit?**
It's very simple. You can upvote anyone all you need to do just one click and it's done. There are two buttons (green for upvote and red for downvote). You can upvote based on good content it will not cost your steem.

Curation rewards can be earned from upvoting posts and comments. The rewards are allocated 50% of the payout goes to the author of the post/comment, and the remaining 50% goes to the curator as per the default setting.

2. What happened if you vote a post before 5 minutes mark after posting?
When you publish a post, 100% of the curation reward will remain in the rewards pool. But initial It varies from 0- 5 minutes. For example, if someone vote after 3 minutes then it'll break into 60% and 40%, curator Rewards, and reward pool respectively.

3. Who will you vote for Steem Witness ? and Why?
Witnesses are generally selected by the steem community to create blocks for the steemit blockchain. I have already voted to @steemchiller who has made https://steemworld.org , @futureshock who has made https://steemscan.com  and @justyy for https://steemyy.com . These tools are very useful.

4. Which community will you join in Steemit, and why?
I joined Steem in the last of July 2020. Initially, I was not familiar with any communities. But I started exploring my interest currently I'm in the following communities:-
