RE: MY SUGGESTIONS - HOW TO MAKE DTUBE VIRAL
I get that. I watched your video.
The bottom line is though, a Dtube video going viral is useless here because you have to join in order to have any effect. It's not like YouTube where people can make money just from views. It's the interaction that makes money.
So one of my Dtube vids goes viral, that's neat. They don't even keep a viewer counter anymore, so I guess it's good if people who have never heard of Dtube, finally hear of Dtube, but ultimately, if they are interested, they would be turned off by the user difficulty of the website. That was my point.
I wasn't saying those things to bitch, and believe it or not, I understand why those things are the way they are. But most people won't. Like the average person is REALLY dumb and expects things to be REALLY easy. Blockchain in general is terribly complicated, and I don't see mass implementation on the horizon really at all.
It's not because I am negative or don't want it/don't hope for it.
Anyone who has invested time/money into Steem wants to see it grow, but I am also realistic. Most of the people I have talked to about Steemit like the idea of it, but it's just too complicated for them. Even if they made the interface more user friendly, the concept of the payouts alone are mind-boggling, and that's something that is likely not going to change.
And I understand you are talking about Dtube, but Dtube still runs on Steem and users will likely still need to understand Steemit in order to utilize Dtube properly.
Pretty sure we're in total agreement then. I realize that a vid going viral wont necessarily bring more profit to the user, but it would be an AMAZING improvement in my opinion to watch a video 6 months down the road and actually put Dtube on somewhat of a playing field with YT and Vimeo. Which would bring much more interest here etc.etc.
Good points.
