Discord is a wonderful tool but it’s making Dtube looks an empty island and I’m migrating to Dtube Island

in dtubesnapplus •  6 years ago 


In this DtubeSnapPlus I was explaining three reasons why I decided to leave all the Discord channels.

  1. Dtube Engagement really Sucks and I feel that actual engagement is happening on Discord but not in Dtube.
  2. I want to encourage Twitter engagement and all the content that I Resteem will be shared on Twitter and this one way to attract developers and investors to make the Dtube Revolution faster
  3. DtubeSnapR will become the YouTube video response and please do not make anymore DtubeSnapR and this way I wanted to invite all the crypto and Blockchain related YouTube content creators to Dtube and they should be supporting decentralised social media Blockchain STEEM if they’re really care about our Crypto ecosystem

Also please remember the DtubeFamily777 guide lines..

  1. Create maximum one content in any given 24 hours and show respect to others
  2. Before you upload a new content please respond to the all the comments on previous content and at least say thank you and show your appreciation for people who’re contributing to your journey
  3. Please please leave minimum 7 comments per day in other dtube contents to support other’s Dtube journey

Thanks you so much for your cooperation and Thank you so much for understanding my reasons why I’m leaving Discord.

Happy Dtubing:)

Sorry for delayed response. Been thinking about it whole day. I started using discord only when I started using Steemit. Initially we used steem.chat. But somehow, Discord is found to be used more by communities here.

No worries. Understand clearly your point. Whereby people might engaged too heavily on discord and forgot about the real platform. The comments and replies here are for a reason.

We don't rule out the possibility some users are engaging well both on Discord and here in the platform.

Some might still finding the balance. I am in many discord communities because I love to be on the look out on how is everyone doing. But I don't chat alot there due to time constraints. So I think it depends on how users use it. If they use it as dump and leave, they will get the dump and leave rewards. If they engage genuinely, they will get genuine response.

So we hope with your idea to heavily engaged here, people will start to migrate their engagement here.

On the side note, discord has been very useful to me in terms of one-to-one communication especially if it's pertaining Steem or communicating with other Steemians. Still not used to giving people my handphone number just for WhatsApp purpose. Need some time to get used to it as it will be globally circulated once I give out my handphone number.

For now, anything with Steem and Steemians, I still use Discord for DM. 😁 And some updates and announcement can be easily found in discord too rather than us searching for it post after post.

So I don't tell the world my mobile phone except with you. Because you have let us know your WhatsApp. 😁So I don't mind to chat with you there.

In my opinion, you don't need to leave all channels and still can engage heavily here on Dtube. But, it is still your decision if you find you should leave all channels too. It is our choice. And I respect and honor your choice.. :)

100% yes to more engagement here instead of Discord.

Thank you for much for your time and effort for the Dtube community. You have my honor.

Have a great day. And weekends coming too. Have a great weekend.

Thank you so much for taking your time to share your opinions and your experiences with Discord.

I'm so glad you said, 100% yes to more engagement here instead of Discord.

I'm a all or nothing person and my strength is ultra-FOCUS and so I've left all the Discord channels except Dtube.

So jealous of your multitasking skills. just joking. lol

Have a lovely weekend too :)

@nathanmars, thank you for the video. It was nice to hear all your thoughts about DTube, Discord, Twitter, etc..

What I would like to say is that I use discord in order to send to someone private message. Or to communicate with someone via private messages. Of cousre, now @partiko has a Messaging functionality and I will be glad if people try to us Partiko Messaging for private messages instead of Discord. I hope Partiko will be able to incentivize some of the Discord users to migrate to Partiko Messaging. Let's see what will happen.

p.s. Also, I would like to add...If many Steemians use Discord, it simply shows that Steem needs this functionality. Why we don't develop dAPP or something like Discord that will be build on the Steem blockchain. Proabably this is a question for the developers and tech geeks...

Thank you so much for mentioning us! We are very glad that you are as excited as we are about the future of Partiko Messaging!

Hey @partiko

Is your mobile app open source? I can't find you on GitHub.

Hi @cryptospa this is the most logical reasoning behind us having used discord in the past. As of course the chat availability was lacking as of yet on Steemit/DTube. However of course we understand we are in the early Beta stages. Comments are great but of course I think people have a need to reach out on a more intimate level via private messaging and or even in live group chat rooms. I definitely think adding these user friendly chat options will increase the traffic to Steemit/D.tube and will also give all of us a better user experience. I am in total agreement with your comment Cryptospa and do not feel a need to leave one of my own below. You have really hit the nail on the head with yours. Thank you for raising this topic as it will mutually benefit all of us.

I hope you have a fantastic ending to your week friend!

@kawaiicrush, thank you for the nice comment. I am doing well. Hope you have a wonderfull week as well.

@nathanmars, thank you, thank you, thank you for your vieo response. We really appreciate your help. It was really nice to hear your opinion in the video response. As I always say you are a great Steemian and a very nice person. Have a good day! Hope everything is fine with you.

I never liked chatting on Discord. I don't know why people spend so much time there when you can chat under someone's video or something. I also got the urge to promote good content on Twitter or Facebook or something. Instead of promoting DTube/Steem by telling everyone how you can make money, just share good videos and content from there so that people go there to consume content; not create content to make money.
I'm going to change my Instagram link so that it is my steemit blog instead of my youtube channel. I will try to share good videos or blog posts on Facebook and Twitter as well instead of only my own.

We need to make DTube and Steemit a platform for people to go to in order to watch videos and read posts. If that is the case, we do not need to make 1 million videos about why DTube is great. Let people realize it for themselves when they see the content here.

We have so many things in common bro!!

We have too many FAKE dtube lovers and steem lovers.

Hope this bear market kick them out and bring new people who love creating and contributing.

What a time to build real business that create and bring value to others.

Amen.

Hey Nathan, I agree dtube engagment is low, easy to understand with the markets. No problem on discord brother! Lol I like your analogy for discord. We must speak soon. All the Discord stuff is also bothering me right now. Too many groups, too many people focusing on Discord growth and Not STEEM growth (I look at STEEM not just Dtube). I am 100% Steem social media. 0% outside social media, I really need to work on that. However, I have a moral problem with Establishment social media, it is very difficult for me to use it. Even tho I know I should be using it to bring people here. I just dumped a golden egg of Zmotiv on dtube last night, enjoy Brother! I wont sell my SP for less then $100

@zainenn, what do you mean (always) by saying: «I wont sell my SP for less then $100»? You mean that you will not sell your STEEM/SP at a price lower than 100 $ for 1 STEEM?

I wont power down my SP until $100 per SP! Mantra.

Posted using Partiko Android

Loving your Mantra brother Nathan:)

Thanks for beautifully written comment and I appreciate your feedback.

People are focusing on the wrong thing. I see people with 12k followers with zero comment on their content.

As you know that I’m not afraid to make big decisions and also when we talk I’ll explain how we can use the centralised social media to build the decentralised dtube !

Talk to you soon:)

Wow, that's crazy. Not one comment? I wonder why that is?

Now you know :)

@nathanmars, Good to hear your honest opinions and your thoughts about the Discord. And in my opinion every action is an energy and for sure this energy if directed towards the Dtube Economy then for sure it will going to bring more value and more engagement.

Sharing content on other Social Media Platforms is vital and important and it's an way to attract more users and spreading the word of Steemit, Steem and Dtube.

I am not judging any content but in my opinion we should create when we get inspiration to create, if we are creating for the just for sake then in my opinion we are not doing justice to ourselves and platform.

Sometimes we have to set particular numbers to achieve some target because, if we observe, when we just think about doing multiple activities but we are just thinking then it stays unfinished no matter that particular activity is less or more in work aspect, but the difference exist when we note something and when we structure everything in numbering, in this way we can come up with better planning and execution.

Keep up brother and enjoy this collective journey. Wishing you an great day and stay blessed. 🙂

Truly appreciate your valuable comment.

You’ve beautifully described what’s on my mind:)

Thanks again brother!!!

Thank you so much and welcome brother. Have a great time ahead. 🙂

There is one benefit from the #OneLoveDTube community that can only be accessed through discord, our IPFS Node so you can backup all your videos making them forever playable!

I agree we need to engage on the blockchain but I don’t believe casting off discord is the solution as many creators may benefit from the tools found through discord community. Now we do need to refrain from making discord the priority but our IPFS node is invaluable for content creators and helps keep that channel alive being able to link to previous works knowing they will still play forever!

Furthermore the curation efforts that happen through the post promotion channels, we have a small team reviewing and using the discord bot to upvote with the entire #OneLoveDTube trail.... for a newbie this is an amazing support and anyone can get their post in front of the eyes of our curators!

Posted using Partiko iOS

UNfortunateley the $10usd cost per month is quite high. IF that can be lowered it would be much more beneficial.

Don't forget beneficiary to @dtube is 8% instead of 10%, so in theory you do get higher post payouts for using my uploader.

That’s only for HD video hosting the 240 & 480 options are free we just ask you to support the project via upvoting the node update posts on @graylan preferably using Steemauto for auto votes thus we may track estimated income with the service also.

Posted using Partiko iOS

what percentages of upvote and how often? I was totally denied access until I paid the $10 and never told about the 250/480 option. Is that new?

  ·  6 years ago (edited)

Upvote is separate from ipfs node use but the node update posts are meant to be daily, depending on how you asked about the service they may have assumed you wished for HD hosting but no it’s not new but we are trying to push subscriptions so we can keep the service alive.... I am pretty certain anyone may access it through our discord via !ipfs480 in the bot spam channel.

Posted using Partiko iOS

Thanks for your valuable comment and I truly appreciate your feedback and the your valuable time.

I need to talk to you about #OneLoveDTube and if you can create a content here on DTube about your project and explain briefly then it would be really beneficial to our community.

There's also the uploader that I developed if you want to take advantage of our IPFS nodes without Discord.

@d00k13 @nathanmars have you tried uploading actual dtube videos with the uploader? How was your experience doing so?

Also @d00k13, it's time for another @onelovedtube community update that we haven't seen for a long time!

Is this the uploader that costs $10 usd per month?

For the service yes (you get access to IPFS Bot pinning commands in @onelovedtube discord server as well). But it's open source so that you can run an uploader server yourself 😉

Consider offering 7 days or 30 days trial.

Even Netflix gives us 30 day trial.

Hope you don’t see this comment as negative and I’m just trying to help

@gray00 what are your thoughts about this?

  ·  6 years ago (edited)

I am open to giving out a trial-service to a test batch of users so they can try out the service. They can contact us by email [email protected] or through discord, and we can show them how the service works, and the bots, and uploader. Thank you for your suggestion @nathanmars .

Would be nice if we could figure away of doing that sustainably.

Media consumption is different then media storage.... so I had to have techcoderx purge my files as they were ridiculous high quality to make certain we have room to take on paying subscribers.

Posted using Partiko iOS

Well I only purge it on the smaller node

I still have your videos pinned on the 2TB dedicated server

On it!

Thanks for reminding me 😅 time has just passed by me these last few months... so many things I have been meaning to do but always get drawn somewhere else 🤦‍♂️

I’ll have to test out the uploader again, wasn’t sure if it was a finished project or not to be honest.

Posted using Partiko iOS

I strongly suggest not to give an update but rather ask feedback to deliver real VALUE to people.

Listen to the customers and the community, because people want to see that you care :)

Well the value comes from the service we try provide and the support that comes with the community, the update post is literally just a way to keep everyone informed as to what’s going on.

There is always a request for feedback thus how we have come up with many of our ideas, just has not been done since.... early summer?

Anyways you will see...

Posted using Partiko iOS

No problem my friend, yea I’ll have to start doing those #OneLoveDTube posts again...

I’ll try touch base with you on Twitter see what your looking for as details 👍

Posted using Partiko iOS

I talked with Jon and trying to talk to graylan00..

Anyways I’ve responded to you on Twitter

Not certain who Jon is 😅 but graylan is the boss as much as myself! He did the ipfs node along with techcoderx and the uploader, I believe toddmck had his fingers in there also. They are the tech minds behind the project.

I need to step back upto the plate again and start pitching our message 💪

Posted using Partiko iOS

I remember going to discord to ask for help coz i cant upload my videos before and yes i put some dtube post. but now im not doing it coz i want to know if other dtubers are really enganging to all dtubers even if it is redfish or they are only riding on the big fish here in dtube.

We must help other dtubers here. whatever we will learn we can teach to others also. 😊😊😊

Posted using Partiko Android

Loving your words brother :)

We must help other dtubers here. whatever we will learn we can teach to others also.

Keep up the good attitude :)

It is clear that you are concentrating on sharing dtube contents in Twitter. It is really a good decision. Although I am not marketing expert, I think you can improve Twitter engagement by following ways:

  1. Share on Twitter after a certain interval, instead of sharing just one after another. Your followers who are not in steemit/dtube, may feel bore
  2. Try to use relevant hastag or trending hastag.

I'm sorry for the late response!!

Truly appreciate your feedback and I'll certainly spread out twitter sharing through out the day with relevant hastag or trending hastag!

Thanks again :)

one of the best creators on Dtube #respect @nathanmars

Thank you :)))

I know for me I have had to cut back on Discord use because it seemed to take so much time being in chats to the point that is was hurting my time on Steemit/Dtube. I totally get what you are saying!

Thanks for understanding my decision :)

Let's put more time on Dtube :)

Discord does holds some value to the users like stated by few users and was able to get quite few things from it as well . Yeah focusing on that entirely does really holds back in improving the activities in Steem blockchain.

Yeah with so much things going on Steem Blockchain there are many ways possible to contribute from our side. While yeah all the things that you going through for the sake of Dtube and us is indeed sth that we are thankful for.

Attract developers and investors to make the Dtube Revolution faster

This is indeed a nice step indeed.

You're absolutely right brother!!!

"focusing on that entirely does really holds back in improving the activities in Steem blockchain"

Let's focus more on Dtube and Attract developers and investors from outside of STEEM by using Twitter and all the other possible way :)

I know what you mean about discord and 'closed communities'.

However it's v. good for meet ups and discussions such as the witness ramble and collaborating on joint projects so it has a role for sure!

Good way to ask devs qs to.. Ive used it for that.

But yes the cliquey circle upvote thing in some groups is..... counterprodutive to steem's growth.

Posted using Partiko Android

Thanks for your meaningful comment brother!

It's about a time time someone need to build Discord like Dapp on top of STEEM.

The more we use something the more valuable it becomes. People in crypto still speculate on prices and never use crypto for daily transaction because of convenient.

For me Dtube first and everything else can wait and I'm happy to handle this inconvenient because I want dtube to grow!

Are you in Thailand? We're a couple of Steemian hanging in Chiang Mai. Hit me up on discord or better facebook. Search Teamsteem on facebook.

Actually I'm in Japan.

I'll hit you up on facebook buddy and I'll come and hang out with you guys soon :)

I agree with you that most of our time goes behind the discord. As a result, many people can not respond to other content. But it is also true that I have found solutions for most of my problems, among the different groups of the discord.

But yes, extra is not good. So I'm currently not as active as before on the Discord's various channels. I am now trying to respond to others dtube content.

I am trying to adhere to the guide line of DTubefamily777.

Thank you so much for sharing your experiences with Discord!

I don’t want to create a culture where people just upload and go.
I don’t want to create a culture where people don’t even respond to the comments on their own content.

Thanks again for your continuous contribution to our DtubeFamily777:)

Thanks for your support brother,,, but regarding posting on other platforms I can't avoid Mr. @nathanmars, I am private and maybe others are also part of me, I'm honest not for 100% money here, this can be seen in my wallet, I have never sold my assets since joining,
sometimes I'm also confused by @dtube . see my post, the last time I got support five days ago I got support from @dtube,

Whereas I am very serious about surpassing this platform, Is it because of my language that I am step child
by dtube?

Honest,,, @nathanmars,,, me and maybe other members are the same, but if you can, please say the same as @dtube only appreciates 1% for one post in one day, so we are always excited and can invite other friends to join.

So on the other hand sometimes we like to write that is accompanied by pictures only, is this not possible?

I believe that the words you say are very important, and of course it helps a lot in our daily work, and if you think that you are better on your Twitter if you do not make a Discrod then I will think it will be for you or me Well, for sure, and of course your YouTube Family must follow the rules, I believe that the words that are very important, and of course it helps a lot in our day-to-day work, and if you think that if you do not make a difference, if you are good on your Twitter, then I think that staying in that place is good for you and for you and we will try the rules of your Dtube family

And I know twitter is the best platform ... At the time we give other community or discord if we give dtube, then uploading our videos and coming to us from many different ways.

It is a very good idea to promote the content we publish on this platform on Twitter to promote it. I think it should also be supported by social networks like Facebook or Instagram, which will attract more investors, which, as you say, will make Dtube Revolution accelerate.
Good is coming. Good luck.

Neat message. We try and use discord to add a layer of personal/live connection and enhance the engagement in STEEMit and Tdube. We can take it too far and divert engagement to a non-STEEM platform like Discord for sure.

What we really need is a STEEM-based Discord app!

Thanks for wonderfully written comment.

Remember early days of Bitcoin there is no wallets and zero exchanges.

We’re in early days of STEEM all the infrastructure will be build around steem in few years

Please start RTing on twitter @nathanmars. This is key to raising the profile and stats on your account. Tweeting is good - RTing is much better over there. I'm a twitter coach with one of my hats. If we would all rt each other, great things would happen.

So far it is a very dead world over there in terms of steemers helping each other. I have close to 400 steemers on my steeming twit list and rt from it many times daily. I am lucky to get 5 rt's a week out of this action I have been taking for the last year and a half.

I get MUCH better rting of steemit tweets from my twitter connections who are not even on steemit. Over 700 of those are in crypto - but not here yet.

Thank you so much for valuable comment.

I’m so happy to see your comments on my fellow Dtuber’s content.

Appreciate your contribution:)

You're welcome. I really want this place to succeed and I am so grateful for your support of everyone.

That is a bold move you are making. To fully focus on DTube. I agree that We need to be promoting DTube so much more. I do like Discord for now. As it helps to promote other DTube videos. It is a decentralized platform vs Twitter which has high censorship.
Regardless I really really like your views and think you play a very important part to the DTube space. I think we need more people like yourself. Here. The rules presented are very smart. I just resteem this video for you. Thanks for sharing and look to our next amazing video of smart information.:)

Truly appreciate your comment!

Loving seeing you’re making your efforts to engage with our DtubeFamily!!

Let’s win together:)

no problem, i will do my best to keep updated on all your new content

TokenBB is a great Steem Project to organize forums and chats on the Blockchain. The first test will run with Steemmonsters they want to migrate the discord community into the TokenBB plattform. I'm not tech savy but maybe this could be an alternative for you guys as well.
@nathanmars really motivated me to look more into dtube and use more of the good content available there. I will try to engage more dircetly with the dtube platform, thanks for the great reminder!

Thank you so much for letting me know about TokenBB.

I love the people behind SteemMonstets and I guess Dtube need to somehow find a way to collaborate with them.

We would love to see you here on Dtube and we’re like a family and please come and visit us :)

That is true. And also apart from creating more dtube interaction and investors, it also encourages more people to join the great platform of steemit. For example. Like you said, by sharing it on twitter, it will definetely attract new people to steemit and even investors like you have said. By this, people begins to join steemit more and more and they begin to use dtube also more and more

Thanks for your valuable comment and I truly appreciate your feedback and the your valuable time.

Actually discord meant to be for gamers lol, the true engagement happens in here right in here! Anywhere else will be missing content to see and comment on. By chating you just chat, but when you see others content and givethem feedback they will be able to improve and do more than staying there and chating! :p

Totally agree with Giving feedback in the comment section is so important and valuable for someone’s Dtube journey!

Nice to hear buddy!!

Good luck with orca level and I know you can do it :)

I need to find a way and make a plan. ;)

You can do it bro :)

@nathanmars, I use Discord only for more important prospective. If not I'm not trying to non important chatting with others. But there has some advantage. if connected world wide steemians through discord will get more reasonable benefits probably.
In fact I agree what you decided here. Twitter engagement more powerful thing for make Dtube revolution. I'm already followed DtubeFamily777 guide lines. It's seriously showing our respect to others. Thank you for encouragement.

Thank you so much for continuous support on creating our DtubeFamily777.

I’m happy to hear that you’re using the Discord tool to your advantage.

I want to end this closed culture and post and leave culture and DtubeFamily777 initial list be released in few days!

Thanks again for continuous support:)

Listen homie, jokes aside

I think I might be on something big... Related to mainstream social media and getting views there (Instagram & Twitter preferably)
I'm gonna update you closely about my Twitter marketing and you'll be the first one to witness it

Posted using Partiko Android

I guess we'll see in a matter of weeks am I a born influencer or just a shittalker :D

Peace.

Just remember the Angel investors and developers use Twitter not Instagram.

I agree with you on that! And I'm well aware of it, I'm an ex student of Public Relations & Marketing and we have been taught that long time ago :)

But I will mos def use both and generate traffic on both pages! If nothing I will self-brand myself on instagram but it's gonna be intertwined with DTube and STEEM :)

Peace

I think its not only about dtube having a less engagements, i feel like whole steem has crushed sentiment and i hope things will change soon... I mean this is either life opportunity or end of the road, depends on us...

This our opportunity to build our own fanbase and build own direct relationships with others.

It’s only take one or two person notice our skills and if we show case our skills on the Blockchain then we get more chance of getting noticed.

Let’s think long term and put in the work:)

Yeah, this will be a longer path than I expected. Only bull run could save the day, but it would eventually come to this point, I guess....
We've got nothing else to do but work like never before. Good times will come 😎

c22275c33__1600x0__q85.png

I agree with you on the engagements issue. I actually don't really use discord all that much. I much prefer to comment and engage with others here. I do agree we can use twitter and I could be better about that myself which ill work on for sure.

I also agree the Dtubesnaps should not become the norm or dtubesnapsr for that matter. We need to focus on making better content and while making a dtubesnap every now and then I think is fine it should not become the new bar to meet for content here.

Thanks for everything you do here @nathanmars

Thanks you so much for great comment!!

I’m learning lot by reading your comments!

Keep them comments coming:)

I did this a couple of months ago because I also believe Discord is one of the main reasons engagement is low on the blockchain. I used to get people sending me PMs in Discord after a video I put up, instead of putting the comment on the DTube video.
I'm only back there now to engage with the DDaily community.

Happy to hear we think alike!

Thanks again for encouraging people from UK to join Dtube!!

It's down to time management, organisation and priorities. I wouldn't rule out Discord entirely, but as a way to engage when you have done 'enough' engagement on Steem. But, first the engagement on Steem has to happen.

Since we have a low SP (atm 40 SP... Delegated the rest), this does mean we are limited to a few comments/upvotes/posts per day as our RC dries up pretty quickly. In this case, resorting to Discord or Partiko messenger is not an entirely bad thing. Yet, not many are in our position and have the ability to do 50+ comments/upvotes/resteems etc., so we see your point too.

We were big on Discord at the start of our Steemit journey as communities do flourish there, but you can spend hours chatting away on multiple channels. It can be a distraction.

Thanks for beautifully written comment and I send you a small gift 🎁

I have always engaged more on the platform as opposed to Discord, mostly because I am an introvert by nature though I can say I have come a long way since I started, and I don't have time to sit and chat long time, so I drop in to touch base
Having said that the communities have also helped me a lot in terms of understanding crypto and steem
So, I think is is very helpful especially for those new or who are still trying to find out more about the platform, so they can ask the questions in a smaller, "safer" space.

Thank you for trying to grow DTube
I am on board for sure on7 comments min and 1 video max :D

Keep fighting the good fight
Thank you for all that you do :D

I’m not against the Discord but it’s not helping STEEM Blockchain and people need to realise that move to Blockchain.

Glad to see that you’re engaging more on the Blockchain.

Let’s keep up the good fight:)

Thank you so much for your continuous contribution to our DtubeFamily777 and the initial list will be announced in few days and I’m keep on Hunting for quality people.

Hello!! I was just deleting some discord groups ans I find you posted something about this. Too funny! I totally agree, most are empty convos, negative or discouraging. Isn’t rather be here!

I’m glad to hear you respect and understand my decision.

Thank you so much ☺️

I'm also not a fan of the heavy use of discord in any of the communities. Like I get that some people want to have private conversations but a lot of the actual discussions are happening off site which doesn't help create a platform that says we about user generated content.

I think you're on to something here and perhaps dTube curation groups can look at reviewing engagement the way steem-ua does when evaluating the reward to try and encourage discussion on the content.

I think its important as YouTube is already a one way mass media tool where the creators don't really engage much with their community they just pump out content and dTube can be something much more conversational

LOL the coffee example made me laugh though, good one!

Thanks for your wonderful comment.

I remember when I started my full time steem journey five months ago, I commented on so many people’s contents and hardly no one responded to my comments and that time I had around 30k SP too.

So many people here are treating this platform as “post and leave” and “post and leave”

Then on the other hand..

People never comment on other people’s contents and it’s always about them and their family and friends. Sometimes Steem feels like a family only business to me.

I’m trying to make Dtube to be international and open and transparent as possible.

Love to see you contents here on Dtube because your meaningful comments make me curious about your talent and the way you think.

I appreciate your points you addressed and it’ll certainly will help me

Bro I agree with you most of the Steemians are active on discord...... I guess so because it instantly gives notification who has commented, followed and upvoted.

The one sad part is some people are spamming dtube with copied content from youtube, tik tok app or you can say plagarized content and keep on asking i watched your video now like my video this thing really discouraging.

The best part about Dtube is that I am starting to get comment on videos and i am getting followers.

And yes I will be working on creating a content in 24 hours and

yes I will defintely leave 7 comments a day...

Peace

I guess there are millions of reasons why Discord is useful tool but I really hope Dtube content creators put Dtube first before Discord and bring some real engagement to Dtube.

Feedback, suggestions, recommendations, criticism, compliments are much needed for true content creators. The long-term content creators would love feedbacks than upvotes and follows because that helps them improve their work.

Thanks you so much offering your support to follow DtubeFamily777 guidelines and I truly appreciate and respect your contribution:)

Infact I agree with you on this point that feedback, suggetions, recommendations are much needed this is the only source from where content creators can improve the work and personally When I receive a comments it gives inner happiness that a person has watched your video and showed the interest.

Thank you for making great contribution to dtube engagement and I truly appreciate it!!

You are the Mentor Brother :) You are working too hard

Old traditions end and new traditions take its place. The same is with discord channel,now taking its place Dtube. I try to comment on more than 7 posts that you have resteemed daily. Thank you @nathanmars sir, for your positive mindset.THANK YOU

Hi Nathan. This is Dan, maybe I missed you at steemfest, but I'm here in Chiang Mai Thailand showing Giom @teamsteem around and hanging with Frank @luzcypher and others. Giom was telling me great things about you. I noticed you stopped by my blog the other day and just wanted to thank you for checking it out. Have a great day and next time I've got find you at SF4.

We met each at SF3 dan!!!

I guess I’ll bring you new memory card for your Brain to SF4:)

Happy Dtubing!!!

Right! my bad....that's you! I took a closer look at the upside down photo. We had a great conversation. It was so nice meeting you. You rock brother. Keep up the great work!

Yups ,, I agree with you mr. @nathanmars ,, twitter is an effective social media to reach people throughout the world.

Hi mr. @nathanmars , about only uploading 1 content in 24 hours,
I posted via #share2steem / day, via #busy 1 post / day, and 1 video #D.Tuber 1 content / day. Is that what you mean too much?

Regarding the comment culture, it doesn't need to be discussed, I have done it long before you suggest it through your discussion.
And that still happens today.

Thanks for your valuable comment and I truly appreciate your feedback and the your valuable time.

Let's use Twitter to promote Dtube and bring in developers and investors and new content creators and contributors to DTube.

Feel free to create as many content with Steem but with Dtube please create only one content because you're part of our Dtubefamily777

Hi mr. @nathanmars , what is the reason you forbid making only one content within 24 hours on D.Tube?
Please give this answer so that I can answer questions about this from the Indonesian D.Tube community.

Then what should we do for those who still upload content beyond one content within 24 hours?

Posted using Partiko Android

Thanks for asking a valid question.

To show respect to the platform.
To respect to other content creators.
To Improve the quality of the content
To make more contribution

There are few other reasons too and if you're not satisfied with these reasons and want more explanations then please do let me know.

Thanks and have a great weekend :)

Okay mr. @nathanmars. Thanks for the explanation.

I find it pretty hard to concentrate my Steem communication only on the comment system. On the other hand I agree that moving away that discussion to 3rd party apps like Discord is confusing and takes attention away from Steem.

It would be nice to have something like Discord onchain but with the current situation and problems we are facing this cannot be our priority.

Increasing comments also helps with SEO rating for videos. Do you think that DTube videos are interesting for outside content consumers/creators?

Twitter? Maybe I should use it more, I am just having a hard time using the old centralized social medias. I assume you want to create more of a Steem-buzz over there to let more people migrate. What is key there to achieve that? Just sharing our videos there?

Posted using Partiko iOS

We can use any tools available to build STEEM ecosystem but people are using STEEM as tool to make money. This kind of culture is not good for our ecosystem.

We can make dtube to platform and the dtube community and the contents to be interesting for people outside and let's put in the work to achieve that.

Let's use Twitter is to promote Dtube and bring in developers and investors and new content creators and contributors to DTube.

It would be interesting to figure out a way how to make DTube profitable and attract special investor money through creative business ideas.

Only my trying, making efforts we can figure out what is possible.

In my world everything is possible

Nathan as usual I will respond when I get home. I am curious are you leaving all discord groups or only some to focus on others? Talk soon 🙂

There is no need to miss each other on the blockchain. We are all just a click away. No flights required. So as long as you have Wi-Fi I am always kicking around. 🧐

Did you read the description properly

In this DtubeSnapPlus I was explaining three reasons why I decided to leave all the Discord channels.

Actually not only did I read the description properly but I listen to the entire video. In the video he explicitly says the name of two particular discord groups but left out others which confused me because the description said something different. Therefore I asked the question. I wonder if you also listen to what he says and read what he says concerning responding to nice comments people take the time to leave you. Because I can remember you are one of the people that I was leaving nice messages for and you would not respond to me. When I asked you about that you said because you didn’t feel like talking to me. Maybe you need to read the descriptions of the videos and take it to heart the good advice he’s trying to offer you if you want to grow your channel. If I fall silent on particular channel is it is because they don’t respond to the messages with even as much as a simple thank you. It is funny how you assume I didn’t read the description and yet you don’t read the description or take the good advice that this man is offering you for free which is only to help you grow. But the very thing you were doing you were assuming I did and you were wrong. Thank you for trying to point out that I was not reading the full description to make me look stupid but the truth is I read everything I watch everything and I respond to everything and if I have a question I ask about it. It is funny how you never have anything positive or nice to say but you’re always ready in the wings to jump and attack me. This isn’t the first time and I’m sure it won’t be the last.

@nathanmars my response comment is on the top of this post. @cryptospa in my opinion had made the most logical sense. I just added my 2 cents to what he said there. Talk soon Nathan. Thank you for your time.

You said it right that discord making dtube empty.
We need more and more engagement with more people. Because this way we can know new hidden talent in people.
I'm here to support dtube, I will do what i can. Keep on my friend ,I'm with you.

Thank you everyone for being supportive

Thank you @nathanmars for being loyal to everyone.

Have a good day my friend.

I truly appreciate your contribution to Dtube!

Keep up the good work:)

I will,

Posted using Partiko Android

it’s funny because of you think about it...if you respond on the blockchain not only can you be rewarded but it helps everyone.

i can totally see the need to focus on engagement here. it’s important.

that being said i think it’s the individual too. for example i fiend and absolutely love engagement. i make it a priority to respond and upvote everyone that comes to my channel

i’ve seen that go way down on steem. i don’t even bother posting comments on some people’s channel now because i don’t even get a response.

sucks.

Posted using Partiko iOS

Your my engagement role model and I’m following your guide.

If people start showing respect to the platform and start treating others with respect then we can move forward faster with Steem and dtube!

Thanks again for responding all the comments and treating others with respect.

We’re gonna win in the long term and all those short term thinkers deserve to loose.

only thing i know how to do right lol

respond to people when they engage me and vice versa.

everything else i have no idea what i’m doing lol

I hope you enjoy this video bro

love it. stories like this get me extremely fired up lol

Posted using Partiko iOS

That is so true. That's why I don't spend a lot of time in Discord. I know I miss a lot of the fun but also I know that if I go in there I will be lost chatting and talking with amazing people for hours and then I won't even bother watching their stuff because I am already in touch with them. 😉

Posted using Partiko Android

Let’s stay focused on Creating good content and treat the people who’re supposed our contents out journey.

I truly appreciate that you’re active on Twitter and let’s do some Twitter Engagement whenever possible!

I’m glad to see that you’re respecting my decision of leaving Discord channels:)

Yeah if course I do respect. Because I totally agree with you and understand what you mean. It is okay to go there now and then. But we also need to make sure we don't forget to be active in here.

Also I think we as creators need to do as much work to promote engagement and creators in here but we need to find ways to attract more people that are not creators and are just here for the fun of enjoying our content and we need to grow to be able to reward our followers and "fans" specially if they are not content creators 😊

Posted using Partiko Android

And yeah I am not trying to get the dtubedaily on twitter to 1k now. I am happy to see actually we get some engagement there... So it is all about expanding it to give more visibility to Dtube and also the creators in here. 😊

Posted using Partiko Android

Sorry I can’t keep up with your engagement speed. lol

Let’s do more Twitter engagement:)

I read and fully agree with everything you mentioned in those two additional comments.

Thank you so much brother:) and let’s please stop our conversations here and if you ever want to talk to me then please contact me directly.

I am most agree with your 2nd paragraph 1 point and now I am going to do that and must follow. And another main point is Twiter sharing. I always share my content On twitter this is a really good way to promote our plate form on other social media plate form.

Thank you so much for sharing your content on Twitter and supporting dtube promotion !

Love to see more of your comments on my fellow dtubers contents!

Have a wonderful day :)

I actually stopped using discord apart from to promote my videos primarily because I’m in a completely different time zone to most of the others and it never lines up. I think the engagement should be kept on the blockchain but I do still use discord to keep in touch with some of my friends in dm form. The one love community I will always post in from time to time though, that was the first community that I joined and where I found most of the friends I now have.

Well sir nathanmars I agreed with your discord points that you raised we have to grow dtube not discord.

I don't have twitter account but I will surely make one in coming days :).

I want to ask that is it okay if people like us will make crypto related contents on dtube?
Definitely we Will surely get the support from the YouTube content creators to dtube :).

And yes i want to say that I'm commenting valuable comments to more than 7 people in a day :) probably more than 10.

I hope that your Twitter concept will too get succeeded if we support each other.

Have a great day and wonderful night 😊😊

Thank you so much for wonderfully written comments.

I’m impressed with your Dtube journey and I’m happy to be part of your journey:)

Thank you sir, I will definitely try to give my best to the community :)

Blessings @nathanmars ... I understand bro

Cheers brother :))
