Steemit Sunday - Episode 1: Converting YouTubers to Steemians!
Welcome everyone to the first episode of Steemit Sunday, a communal effort between @theywillkillyou and myself to try and drive as many of our almost 2 million YouTube subscribers to Steemit and DTube!
Along with this video on DTube, I have posted a trailer on my YouTube channel, talking about Steemit and Dtube and encouraging my viewers to check it out. The plan is to start doing this EVERY SUNDAY, to try and drive as many YouTubers over as we can. The full videos will also remain exclusive to Dtube for at least the first week. To get a better idea, you can check out that promotional trailer here:
Despite the very somber topic of today's video I can't help being in a celebratory mood. Being able to finally make a concrete contribution to growing the Steemit platform feels great after all the help Angelo and I have received so far.
A few people deserve a special mention. It was @alexpmorris who spent 2 hours on a Skypecall with me after just having "met" online. I had little clue about Steemit and he was nice enough to go out of his way and show me the ropes. 2 hours is a massive amount of valuable time for someone to dedicate to a person they don't even know. It came at no cost or commitment what so ever and I am still very grateful to this day.
@aggroed Is the one who relit our Steemit FIRE. His passion is contagious and his intentions are admirable. I'm excited to be on the Minnow Mayor Town Hall with him again tonight!
Then there are people like @teamsteem, @thejohahfiles, @starkerz, @yabapmatt, @acidyo and @heimindanger. These are whales, witnesses and passionate Steemians whose upvotes are massive emotional/monetary driving factors for us and many others. The fact is that this kind of support is literally a game-changer and it would be HUGE if we can eventually transition over from YouTube to Steemit and make more videos like this:
of course while bringing as many of our YouTubers over to the Steemit platform in the process! ;)
For me personally, that would be the end goal: To make many more original productions like the one Angelo and I shot with Pablo Escobar's former hitman Popeye, in Medellin last year. If I am ever lucky enough to make a living off of that then I'll be one happy camper!
▶️ DTube
▶️ IPFS
If at least 10% of youtube users will switch to Dtube which is far better then steemit and steem will be really huge!!!
Thats what i star to do. I make account here because i had problems with youtube in past. And i ask my friends check Dtube and start using it :)
sorry i'm newbie here, and i've never heard about Dtube, what's that?
Is it kind of youtube? what's difference?
D.Tube is a video hosting alternative to YouTube that runs on the IPFS blockchain and gets its comments off the STEEM blockchain.
More info here
very true
Alright, I would like to follow Dtube everyday.
Even if they consider bitchute, pewtube, vimeo etc etc as an alternative. Youtube is choking the whole video content sharing and creation market with their overwhelming current market share. Time to increase competition.
youtube is dead
yes, the last update with limit 1k sub, kill yt
Yeah it did.. Not only that, but also the 4000 hours a year.. that's 240.000 minutes. No small youtube channel wil ever hit that.
Now is the best time to start doing this even twitch streamers might benefit from this as well as most contents are being destroyed or blocked by youtube now.
I want to switch from YouTube to Steemit and Dtube !
when will #360video content work and be functional in VR mode for viewing in #VirutalReality devices. ?!?
nice that you are bringing others to the community. good luck, I really found this an interesting post keep up the good work
D2 will overtake Youtube, but will Steemit overtake Facebook?????
Unfortunately, I don't think so. It can overtake twitter and youtube but would need much more social interaction with people that are actually in your personal network. There the great asset of anonymity is a double-edged sword.
No, facebook may not be
Woah. These ladies were ruthless.
evil women? lol Nooo... there's no such thing... if you let women tell it...lml
And if youve been divorced you know women can destroy a man's soul lol
Is it weird that a video about Hitler's evil women brought me to Dtube?
Nah I think it's an interesting origin story haha
Hey! This video is not what I was expecting. But, while I'm commenting, I might as well note that THIS is literally the origin of the FEMANAZIS! Crazy historic information. Sad.
