SOS BRIGADE!

In 2017, content creators on YouTube got his pretty hard financially and socially thanks to adpocalypse 1 & 2, algorithms being played with and Logan Paul.


The face of many content creators in 2017

Through many awesome blessings, some of us were able to discover Steemit and Dtube! We have the freedom to do what we must and want because we can! There's so much potential here for growth!

Working at Youtube is like working a job you hate.

You bust your butt for years for this company and help it grow. Then all of a sudden, some hot shot comes in, disregards what you do and makes a fortune off of it.

It's worse if you're signed to a Multi-Channel Network and you lose even more revenue.


YouTube and MCN's be like "What money?"

Should I 100% quit YouTube for Dtube? Right now, as much as i'd love to, I cannot. As tired as I am of the crap, I still feel in my heart I can influence people on there a bit and it's working. From talking about being black in Korea and more, I am still reaching out to some folks out there that love what I am doing. There are so many negative "black in Korea" videos that I want to combat and show some positivity and reality.

On the flipside, i've been really looking into cryptocurrencies and Steem is pretty dog gone neat! I want to gain an influence on here and use my earnings to help out others. People took the time to help and guide me while I was living in South Korea and Japan and I want to pay it forward.

2018 is all about building baby!

Family, thanks for watching and reading!

Yeah Shaun I think You have a better and greater future ahead of You in here... I havent uploaded nothing on my Youtube this Year and I don't even know if I will upload anything. :D Maybe one or two videos talking about Dtube LOL :D ehehheheh

I'm considering doing that this year. I got a plan to bring people over to Dtube if they're interested. I believe my method will work out this year. Thanks for coming by and watching!

awesome... bring them on :D Let's keep the party on :P

DTube needs a little bit more to it before we can truly start getting big names on there. I think it's in your best interest to simultaneously upload to both, and tell your subscribers on YT about DT, but unless you're tied to a contract, diversify.

I cannot multi-stream because I'm on the front page rotation for Smashcast. If I were to simultaneously cast to another site, I would lose that front page visibility. Whether or not that's a good place for me to be remains to be seen, buuuut...

Yeah, i'll have to upload on both until I can fully commit myself to one. After talking with @harshilpatel and everyone last night, I realized how I could optimize both for growth and profit this year.

Huh, never heard of Smashcast. Might have to try that out and see how it works out.

I just interviewed the head of Support last night. Go check it out, you might enjoy it!

Bro!! I am freaking in love with steemit and dtube. I barely think about youtube anymore. I still watch some videos here and there, but my main focus is dtube now :) Besides, it's really really REALLY hard to grow on youtube because it has been there for such a long time and here...it's BRAND NEW! hence, it's an OPPORTUNITY to grasp!

You said it man!! On here, it's not about viewing, it's about upvotes and about people loving your content :)

Winny out...for now ;)

Dude same! I've noticed my mind focusing on steemit more so than fb, Instagram, and YouTube. I'm still growing my platform on their since I don't like putting all of my eggs in one basket

On youtube, I'm focusing more on growing Mynd Now and promoting it on Facebook and soon I will also promote it on instagram as well, but on dtube, I post exclusive content here so that is awesome!!

Winny out...for now ;)

Exactly, will you make it to the meet up tonight? We can talk more about this on there

Yes, I will be there :)

I will ask all of you guys who will on there if it's ok if I film a bit for my dvlog in the upcoming days ;)

Winny out...for now ;)

PS: Will it be ok for you, first of all?

Yes! I did it last night haha

Bro! I'm so sorry! My internet crashed and just went back on this morning :( I was so looking forward to it, but when can you do when the internet is gone :D

I hope there will be more of these meetings!

Winny out...for now ;)

PS: if possible, try not to make it too late :D

You're in South Korea!? Where you staying? I was in Gangnam for a while but now staying in California.
I feel you about leaving YT for Dtube but given the audiences for both are pretty different I'd suggest you still upload to both because you'll be seen by different people. That's what I'm doing at least.
Hopefully we can both be full time DTubers one day though!

I was in South Korea. But I am looking at going back next month. I was in Sinchon and Osan for a tick.

I'd like to be a full time DTuber and YTuber but I at least want to get my audience on board. Just gotta keep at it!
