YouTube vs. Dtube - Why Steem Has a Hard Time Attracting and Retaining Quality Content Creators

D.tube should just add ads since content creators love them so much. :D

That actually could be a pretty good way to solve a few issues.

If content creators had the ability to earn based on ad views for the lifetime of their video - they would be more motivated to share their dtube content with people - even if they didn’t earn a lot of Steem rewards the week it was published. That might help with the quantity versus quality thing as well. If a video is really good, it may continue to get views into the future, even after the seven day window has passed.

Pros and cons to everything - but it could be something for them to consider trying out at some point.

What Do you think of the service "onelovedtube"? Storing videos longer is also a necessary feature. After 1 Month 95% of the Videos are Not accesible (my experience). Should we crowdsource this service for selected dtubers?

OneLoveIPFS is just a hosting service (for $10/month) for those who want their videos to remain playable forever but lack of technical ability to run and manage IPFS servers themselves.

In fact we recommend content creators to host their own content by running a go-ipfs daemon with their videos pinned. That way we're more decentralized and videos load faster with more nodes (due to more bandwidth available).

To be honest - There is new stuff for steem by the Day. I loose track :D

I think @dclick is a good idea. I'm sure there's ways to keep videos add free but still make some earnings after 7 days. I'm not against adds in the comments section for people that aren't logged in.

Is it possible to create a steem based marketing Firm within the 2 years? So a place where steemians can actually create commercials for dtube getting paid in steem of course.

If you're thinking of an inner marketing thing where we market steem users and their content that'd would be a good idea. I remember hearing about @dclick but never managed to take the time to look deeper into it. Wonder how it's been going for them.

that is my point too many (good) projects

Yes, we could just fork dtube, modify the design, a google ads system and here we are. You're in ? (I'm looking for an internship by the way, I think this project is quite big but technically possible)

Google ad system would destroy the way DTube works, thats a majority of the reasons peoples come here. Is demonetization. It would allow google to control and invade users privacy... How about brave opt in ads when they come out?

I dont want to fork dtube i Like @heimindanger and his work

You can make pull requests on the official dtube github repo if you have any suggestions for code changes 😉

DTube is open source and forking it for your own needs is 100% okay as long as you keep the source open and I can check it out, and eventually merge the good stuff back on the real dtube ;)

So far i am just good enough for shitty forks :D

Some people are already running some forks, like @wehmoen and @vaultec, it's not that hard :p

I am more the nice guy for good Content. :D - and apperently People are attracted by @drugwars right now

Hmm. I wonder if we could get something similar going on Vimm. Do you think streamers would pay for additional exposure of their channel?

streamers dont have to pay anything. They can easily mirror their own stuff via OBS. The features are the same(Animation for donation). https://vimm.chat/ tools are quite powerful in this regards.

@vimm has to keep on performing everyday so more steemians use their site on a daily basis. streams so far never exceed two digit numbers.

Well, if you have ideas on how/where to improve, I'd love to hear it. They might just get turned into features on the site! All feedback/suggestions are welcome. (I'm on the dev team)

Also, I was referring to more of a "promoted streamer" sort of thing where a Streamer's channel appears on the front page for a certain number of page views. Obviously this isn't as relevant now, as we're still in the starting out phase. But down the line, as we grow, this could be useful.

vimm is awesome, obs works perfectly.

it should be easier to change thumbnails of the new stream and to plan streams. A FAQ section would be helpful.

I'll add the first to the list, and we're already working on the second with Vimm University. I'll see if we can't get something a little more fleshed out, though.
