Last July I started my @Muxxybot curation account. With it my curation team and I have shared many minnow posts. First there were general posts, then fiction was added, poetry curation and finally French community posts.
Thanks to the many Steemians who delegated to the project we have been able to reward new users posts.
Last month I announced that the project was taking a break. The main reason for this is that maybe due to the lower price of Steem and SBD, the team was struggling to find enough posts to curate. This situation has improved little.
You might detect a whiff of frustration with the Steem platform in my last post and that possibly fuels my decision to shut down the Muxxybot curation project.
I want to thank all of the curators who put in the time and work to trawl through Steemit / Busy for worthy posts to share. It's not an easy job to sort the wheat from the considerable chaff.
I also want to thank each and every delegator who lent some of their voting power for the account to be able to upvote curated posts.
Finally, thanks to everyone who followed the account and a special thank you to @overkillcoin and @kristyglas for the artwork I used in each curation post.

oh man. That kind-of sucks. Good thing his circuits have been cloned - he must live on at TWB. So long, and thanks for all the fish, Muxxybot. :-(

That is really a sad robot-gif. And I'm also sad to see such a great initiative come to an end, even though I understand your reasons.
And also grateful for all the effort you and your team of curators have put in this endeavour!

I will always love my adorable muxxybot and will miss him greatly, sad he did not achieve his goal of world domination..... There are days I would prefer to not have those pesky feelings...

He may come back one day. Never know. Good robots don't die, do they? But lately... it's just been so hard to find the good stuff and it feels wrong to curate without really going out into Steem and digging for new people who need it. Muxxybot was a huge boost to my Steem journey and to my self-esteem when he picked up underloved pieces. I will miss him.

Muxxybot can never die...he will just evolve into something else.
I enjoyed my months doing curation fiction for Muxxybot, and I was pleased to discover at least some very excellent writing amidst the flood of subpar material.
Thanks, @gmuxx, and I'm sure everyone that Muxxybot has ever curated thanks you as well.

I'm sad to see this, but I fully understand the reasons. Muxxybot made a great contribution to curating posts and helping minnows be discovered and rewarded. He lives on in my heart... and everytime I log into Discord. Will be missed on the blockchain.
