Clickbait doesn't work here on Steemit, which is just one more reason why I love it!

in steemit •  7 years ago 

yea, however, I have a friend that used to make about 1-2k USD/month from his channel (enough to pay for rent etc while studying) he gets the same amount of views and his videos do not get demonitized. however, he only makes about 500-750 USD a month now. so youtube's payouts have taken a really heavy hit in recent times.

i tried to make him move to steemit or D Tube but he don't want his followers to move platform sadly.

He will eventually, because I think YouTube has been slowly pushing creators away, because it is my belief that they want to become more of a content distributor for things like Ellen or the late show, and be done with the little guy.

you are more than likely right. a lot of people are not fund of youtube anymore (even high profile channels are talking against youtube now)
i hope D-Tube can become the replacement but i think the bandwidth issue might halt it.

DTube has a long long way to go, but people could use Steemit in conjunction with YouTube, and just not run ads on their vids, and just earn via their post rewards.

that is true :)
