The Free Market Has Spoken DTube Is Here! A Blockchain Solution To YouTube Censorship! (Interview With DTube's Creator)

czechglobalhosts (79) · 8 years ago

Hi! I have been watching and following on progress of DTube since its launch few days ago. I think it will be hard to disagree but the whole idea is absolutely brilliant! I am having some issues to watch some of the videos as they wouldn't play but I am sure those are just minor bugs as this is still a beta version. This and many other projects are really transforming the way many businesses can function and it is simply brilliant. Another project that I absolutely love and has a massive potential and usage for steemit members is #SteemBnB - Airbnb for steemians. However, right now it is only an initiative that does not seem to be moving forward so it would be great if someone smart enough like Adrian would develop it into a platform that can be easily used. That would be just awsome. Thank you and steemo on! Tomas

Great interview, thanks! There's another similar service for Steemit being developed simultaneously called 'Viewly' too. I have been testing both here and they both work ok. Viewly is a bit more advanced and you can embed videos into steemit posts from viewly already. Here's an example video I uploaded, which is a talk I gave last year to software engineers and community builders about balance. Synchronistically, I actually addressed the issue of my own posts being censored on Youtube in that talk and a Google Engineer was present in the audience.. But his comments didn't make it to the video ;)

Agreed! More over, Viewly developer has declared that Viewly will be kept free forever whereas dTube may charge about 25% in future. I love freebies more 😊

dieterschneider (55) · 8 years ago

The 25% is to cover storage fees, and of course the owner should be able to make money on the project as well. Dtube is free to use, the 25% i taken from the votes, which I think is fair. As far as I understand you can not earn money on Viewly?

$0.00

xyzashu (75) · 8 years ago

And do you think this one time fee of 25% will be enough to store all our videos for posterity?

BTW, Viewly is also coming up with some earning model for its users. I dunno how all these is going to work. Let's see.

dieterschneider (55) · 8 years ago

This is what the creator says:

I have recently created the @dtube account. This account will be used to collect 25% of the DTube author rewards. 10% of these fees will be used to pay for long-term storage of the files on IPFS Store. The rate is $0.044 per GB per month. So, for example, let's say you upload a 100MB video, that earns $10 rewards, then $0.25 will go to @nannal and ensure data redundancy for ~57 months.

This is certainly a great step forward for decentralized videos. But it is just an intermediate solution to collect adequate long term earnings with a high quality video. As you said in the interview it is fantastic to create a revenue stream right away and this post here proves that.

But from a content creators perspective some videos deserve more than just seven days of potential upvotes. Does anybody here know if you can create an alternative payout plan with a 3rd party Steem app? I am not sure if a longterm solution is even possible with Steem.

Or if a system like LBRY isn't the better solution because they use their own currency optimized for exactly that: longterm earnings with videos.

truthforce (66) · 8 years ago

Well, as someone from YT who has over 300+ videos, I can tell you almost none of them make any money after the first week.

YT's algorigthmn pushes your videos up to the top of the list if you have a lot of followers/likes/views in a short amount of time within a video being released. However, after a few days, once the views and the intial surge die down, your video gets pushed to the middle/bottom of the list. Meaning that when someone types in a phrase similar to what your video is, your video if it is 4 or 5 days old likely won't show up(unless it had hundreds of thousands of views, or not many people upload videos like it). For the most part there are always hundreds of people making very similar content who are in the high tiers of owning the phrases, such as "prank videos" or something. Those top few hundred people always are pushed to the top, but if they don't make a prank video for a week, their videosstart to de-rank.

YTis constantly looking for fresh consistent content.

On almost any of my videos I do not get more than 10 to 20 views on anything older than a few weeks(Ihave 5k subs and good search results too).

So it isn't too far off base for onnly being rewarded in a 7 day period that Steemit limits you to.

I do have a few exceptions, where some videos continue to do well because it is of a certain boss in a PC game that people want loot from and what not. But even those videos don't get more than a few hundred views extra/month and that is with a way larger population than steemit has(Ithink active 30,000 or so).

LBRY is probably better, but for the most part people don't watch older videos(Isay this in the macro term, like 95% or more of your views happenin in the first 3 to 4 days on YT).

Still, it would be nice to have continued earnings through another app as you say. Maybe as other have said, send a tip or something or someone makes another app.

retiredinsamar (56) · 8 years ago

I mostly agree, but I still earn on videos that are over two years old. It all depends on the validity of the content. In my case, my content stays relevant. Occasionally I will have to push, or reintroduce some videos by placing links, but my blog also helps to generate new viewers and subscribers. ATM, DTube cannot replicate that.

That's great knowledge. I thought we need more time to monetize but 7 days same as Steem.. Hmm.

$0.03

someonewhoisme (54) · 8 years ago

An easy option to transfer Steem/ SBD to content creator is the natural thing to do. We also have @tipu that people can use to quickly send a tip to a user.
I don't think many users would be willing to pay to watch videos tho when they've had it free for years. Even on a platform like steemit where people can earn easy money tipping is not really popular.
Maybe put a SBD paywall half way through the video to watch til the end but still skeptical about this.

That is my concern too. I don't think big YouTubers will rush to Dtube. For daily vloggers it might be just fine with seven days "monetizing", but for creators that use days, or even weeks to create good videos, it won't be a good solution. I fear it will be lots of crappy videos, at least in the beginning (which is bad because it might scare people from publishing. However, I think this is the beginning of something big.

$0.02

whitedolphin (59) · 8 years ago

I agree with this @dieterschneider - the 7 day monetization is a real turn off as long articles and videos take a lot of research and preparation before they are ready for publishing hence the quality of the posts and content is deeply affected. Other than that I think this is a great step forward.

gregario (55) · 8 years ago (edited)

This great point applies to posts in general, not only videos. The 7 day limit is inconvenient and arbitrary from the content creator's perspective. It is justified by the crypto aspect, though. Steemit ends up being a crypto system with a social network on top if it. Which is great, it's helping me a lot in my journey into the world of cryptos. But for the blogger or vlogger it is very hard to digest the 7 day limit.

I am a youtube lover, I know YouTube is also a medium to upload for free. Users can load, watch and share video clips for free, YouTube is also perfect for those of us who want to find information without having to read articles, Generally the videos on YouTube are clip video clips, TV shows, movies and videos made by its own users . And keep in mind, the videos displayed are generally only to be viewed through the browser, not to be downloaded and viewed offline.

I completely disagree with your conclusion. Videos on YouTube include hours-long presentations of e.g. vortex mathematics which is basically required to view multiple times in order to best understand it. Using bandwidth downloading it multiple times (e.g., streaming) seems wasteful.

Downloading it a single time and watching it multiple times, at one's leisure, whether the website is up, or whether one's even connected to the internet, is a valid use case. Also using VLC you can control the speed with the "[" and "]" keys.

And, as I'm recovering from multiple concussions, I tend to forget most of what I've seen or read. So, being able to download videos so I can watch them again, and sort them into folders so as to assist in my recall, is urgently necessary (and hopefully won't be, at some point in the future).

This is a great introduction to Dtube! YouTube censorship is out of control, they absolutely suppress my channel views, subs, and comments because of the content that I present. I'm so happy that other platforms like Dtube and Bitchute are creating a place for independant research, real news and that stand for free speech!

To die I want to be with you

One love to death separates
You and I are one

tanoskywalker (25) · 8 years ago

I don't think the point is about Dtube competing with Youtube. The whole idea is about decentralizing vs centralize. Youtube is now controlled by big corporation and government and they keep censoring the content that they don't like either it's the truth or not. Facebook has the same policy that's why we have steem to replace it. Governtment will keep pushing their way to control us people and our revolution has started with decentralize and block chain technology.

Decentralized platform free us from slavery, cryptocurrency is the first step, decentralize everything else is the final goal. It's finally the time for us people gain back control of our future, no more someone high up who tell us what to do.

Thank You @pressfortruth for pushing a little more the new dtube video platform. It is about time now for every content maker to shift to the free world of information. Youtube, Facebook and all others are really going into brain-washing platforms so today it is really important to bring in all the censored creators and diffuse their content. It is time to bring back to the world the free thinking and free speech. I am French and my country is one of the top censor in the world today, the country of freedom and human right s, my ass. Tomorrow I want to make a post about something that may shock many peoples around but it is what happened in France today. Thank you.

Wonderful news... however we must keep in mind all necessary steps to promote it well. We as steemians must endeavour to publicise the platform on YouTube. Also as this is linked to steemit, it should probably provide the impetus to steem in this bullish market. D tube developers must also dwell on AI techniques as used by Google to enhance output... All in All a good start
