RE: 📹 STEEMIT: First Impressions From A Noob! (DVlog #2)
Gonna watch during my morning routine tomorrow, BUT if you want to replace the image file associated with the link to dtube, just copy the image link of the big one you uploaded, and replace the link on the DTube thumbnail that is connected to "snap". Not sure if that explanation made sense, but basically you can replace the small thumbnail with the larger one. (that's what I do)
I haven't shown steemit to non-crypto friends yet, but I have the same reservations you do, about it feeling a bit shady. All the bots and spam are tough. I know that Twitter and others have just as much spam and bots, but that stuff is buried by their algorithm, so it's not as obvious. But here, spam + bots = money. And that's how things are ranked. Hopefully some folks will build new platforms that bring better curation to things and filter out the noise, that's the next big step I think.
And thanks for that video! I appreciate knowing I've watched the worst video ever. ;)
(Side note: my partner and friends are doing a marathon livestream today, and tonight after work I'll be on stream. If you want to play PUBG Duos on stream with me, I'd be pretty chuffed, as you'd say. Here's the Discord where you can find me: https://discord.gg/2PqhW6)
Hey mate! Really appreciate your comments! And thank you very much for the help with the thumbnail, I knew there had to be a way to sort it but I had no clue lol.
I think shady is a good word for it. It all feels a bit too good to be true and there's s many people trying to take advantage it kind of dilutes the value of things slightly. Yeah I'm sure there'll be plenty of updates/improvements to come, I hope anyway!
Haha hey! You're supposed to say it isn't the worst video ever! :P
Would have been really keen but had a meeting down in Liverpool (across the country) last night and I ended up not getting back until pretty late so it was shower, food, and bed unfortunately.
Do you use that Discord a fair bit? If so, I'll pop on and say hello at some point soon.
We just started it, but it'll be the one for the platform my partner and her team are launching (hopefully soon) called Geode. So, I'll definitely be on there. Same username as here, so you'll be able to find me
In case the link I sent yesterday is inactive now: https://discord.gg/2PqhW6
Hey mate what's your username on Discord, including the 4 digits after your name? I'll add you as a friend might be easier because those invites have run out. Or add me: Will#8357
just sent you a friend request on Discord. Mine is gyrosean#0636
Cheers dude! Don't know how things work out with time difference but sure there'll be crossover.
