"I am gonna be very nice to @Heimindanger and then I will get upvotes."
Doesn't really work like that and I know with certainty that @Heimindanger dislikes beggers. Otherwise, he would not have created the "Beggar" group on the DTube Discord server.
Being nice 24/7 is a mild form of begging here on Steemit because everyone here on Steemit knows that you get a lot of upvotes from naive people if you are "fake nice".
So stop being so fake nice and be real for once. Being nice 24/7 makes you absolutely untrustworthy and I highly dislike people who are constantly nice as they just affirm that I am doing good things.
If everyone would tell me that I do good things to get upvotes then I would almost stop improving because in their eyes I am really good.
It inflates the ego, just like fat girls on Tinder think that they are princesses because 15 beta males write her every day.
If you are always nice you are suspicious, the people here on Steemit are smarter than you think they are.
They can see who is nice and who is not nice. To be nice you have to be an ass too, someone who is permanently nice ain't nice on purpose.
So there it is, some psychology why begging and being nice 24/7 will not get you the infamous DTube upvotes (or big upvotes in general).
How to Get Upvotes (Guessing on Experience)
1. Create a good thumbnail, title and 1st sentence.
2. Your video must be thoroughly edited, don't be lazy.
3. Use a high-quality camera and a high-quality microphone.
4. Change the backgrounds (city, beach, park, gym, etc.)
5. Constantly learn more to improve the quality of your videos.
6. Write an epic text below the video and format that perfectly.
7. Read the "Avoid This" section below.
8. Join the DTube Discord server and write there every damn day.
Avoid This
1. Controversy
2. Insults
3. Politics & Religion
4. Low-quality Videos
5. Bad Editing
6. No epic text below the video
More Information
I cannot predict who @Heimindanger upvotes but you can see who he upvotes by checking out "Outgoing Votes" which you will only see after installing the app "Steemit More Info".
He will also not tell you how to get upvotes because then everyone would try to fit that standard and that would limit the creativity of most people.
Besides that, you really have to go all in on video creation if you want to get big upvotes in the future.
More and more famous Youtubers are joining and it gets increasingly harder to stand out from the crowd.
If you are not willing to improve your videos to get big upvotes then I recommend that you still do them to upgrade your posts with them (that is what I do).
However, I do not expect fat DTube upvotes every damn day because I am honestly not a professional video editor and I do not want to become one.
But remember: You still make more cash on DTube than on Youtube (professional video editing or not) because there are no ads on DTube, no censorship and you get paid by your audience.

If you want to make money here you have to follow some unspoken rules.
Everytime you break them you make less money.
If you are not here to make money then do as you said.
If you want to make money you have to make posts like mine the absolute exception, it turned out to be a rant mixed with some tips.
Do not rant.

Hi @valorforfreedom
You wrote this post at my right time. Because I set posting a video in DTube as a goal for this month.
Yes, I too don't like to beg for upvotes. We should focus on quality of the content then upvotes will be automatic.
I would like to add one more point to "Avoid this". It is YouTube has censorship and DTube doesn't, but don't take this as an advantage. Don't select hatred, fake, or violent stuff. And behave like DTube has censorship. Of-course downvotes will kill if anybody takes advantage.
And I use Camtasia 9 for editing videos. I also saw your video about reducing size using with Handbrake. That helps a lot. Thanks.

So, do not back down to public opinion and be what you want to be.
BUT at the same time, do not talk about certain uncomfortable or controversial topics.
It's very contradictory.

Only catching up with your posts now.
Fucking fantastic man! I laughed my ass off watching the video! Not pulling the punches on the fake alternatives.
Just keep it real bro. The moment you go fake then you wouldn't be: "valor for freedom"
Cheers!

The quality is still low at 480p max I don't think it will ever take off until at least 720p is accepted and your subscription page can be populated with people your subscribed to
