Hello as a small youtuber, I am going to say its a little bit different steemit than youtube, on steem it you get paid for your social network and also quality content, and on youtube you get paid for people who view your ads on the videos.

Politics seem to burst into just about everything lately, but perhaps the most alarming area is within the social media platforms. Not that social media shouldn't be used for political discussion, but rather that heads of social media companies are steering political discussion in ways they see fit by rewarding the opinions they agree with and hindering those they don't (via pulling or pushing advertisements or just straight up making some content easier to see than others). Steemit seems to be a step in the right direction for a more honest dialog online which is exciting. That being said the troll is never removed.

HHHH just with tow UP-VOTES i earned in D.tube what i earned in 5 months from YT.
My experience there is not different from other experiences of the newbie youtubers , I had a channel since 2007 and i waited a lot before having the right to monetize my videos on YT (10000 views ), a few months later, I have to do more to be able to continue to monetize. They are now asking for 1000 subscriber and 4000 hours of watching time ! it is a decision that will surely kill small chains that have barely begun, despite the content they offer, it is an angle of unilateral and vulgarly capitalist decision , i´m happy to find that alternative .

Now that YouTube has taken the Youtube partner program for small channels they will lose upcoming channels that could be great. I was getting an avg of 4k views on my videos but still they are taking my partnership away. Youtube was built off of small creators and this is how they repay the community.. I am in the process of moving all my content over from youtube over to DTube while deleting it off youtube and I will support this website 110% and give my heart and sole to help grow this community. And I will not support youtube by leaving my videos up for people to watch. if they want my content they will come over to DTube. The only video I will leave on my channel is one saying to join me on DTube for future content. I hope you all do the same! let's do this, let's make this big!

Right. There are so many mixed messages about YouTube (mostly negative that it's difficult to remain loyal. My sense of YTube is that it is internally fractured (Google), so there must be a lot of dissent amongst employees.
Steemit has such a different format, so I'm just slowly figuring it out. Nice and valid post of yours louisthomas.

Thanks for the video. I started YouTube last year right after they changed their policy to 10000 views. Then all of a sudden another policy change. I am glad I found this platform to give a try. It seems like the potential here is great. I am glad I got in while it is still early. Good luck!

Spot on! I don't see why more content creators will be willing to move their content from Youtube to dTube. With crypto getting more mainstream, steemit will be recognized as a great social media platform that pays ( could it be any better? ;) and dTube will become more mainstream!

Steemit rocks ! I much prefer to watch your videos here than on the other channel I do not like their "Mega Corp" tactics nor the way they try to censor context on the pretext of being advertiser unfriendly. By migrating away from the other channel we can hit them where it hurts .... their pockets.

Brief summary of the cryptocurrency markets and overall cryptocurrency market cap. Summary of steemit and the steem tokens that allow people to see financial returns based on content created and upvotes. The Weiss cryptocurrency ratings came out today and a lot of people were very upset. There is a fake app that installs ransomware and charges 0.3 Monero to unlock your files. South Korea is implementing real name restrictions on cryptocurrency and looking for high volume accounts. I explain how tether is very centralized and tether's failure could bring crypto to its knees. As an alternative to tether, the dai coin is also designed to keep its value close to $1 USD and it is decentralized.
