RE: IS THE CURATION SYSTEM BROKEN?
Since this is a subjective issue and it's based on curators discretion, I want to believe quality is a subjective issue. How it works in more centralized system like YouTube is that the engagement determines what gets to the top. Personally, it's not quality if no one is interacting with the material no matter how much effort is put into it. The consumer of the material has the final say. However we don't have such a system in place. My suggestion: implement a view count, weigh the quality of engagement on that material before curating. This might even stop the trash load of content people pump into the system. But then again we can not afford that because we need this platform to be active since we do not have the numbers

I think there are reasons for not having a view count. Also the decentralized nature of dtube doesnt allow that, I think. I think that is a good idea tho, wait x amount of time to accumulate upvotes then the team votes. However, majority of people are thankful to get upvotes when they do. Lots just post for the love of it. There are plenty of things that could change, we sure could use more quality content creators here. Too many people talk for 5 minutes in their bedrooms and expect upvotes for it. If anything people should ignore dtube and organically grow their audience by networking.

I have seen a one-minute video about nothing. Even 10-20 mins about nothing. Faux motivator, faux crypto experts. But at the end of the day, the viewers should have they say. The first time I watched Nicki's anaconda video I thought it was total trash but it ended up being one of the most watched videos that year. Like I said, quality is relative.
I'm glad we could have a decent conversation without any temper tantrums. Show maturity.

For sure lol. I will have to look into the musing model, I am not familiar with that. Nor am I familiar with the video you are talking about. It seems like over the past few weeks a lot of different accounts have been getting upvoted, I suggest looking at their voting power. Then once you have seen that look at the content coming out. They upvote almost everyone who is not plagiarizing. Vote power doesn't go above 25% from what I have seen.

Maybe i should. At the end I'm as passionate about steem as everyone here who puts time and effort. This types of dialogues are necessary. We disagree to agree and then find a middle ground. Silence escalated the whole issue. I'm glad to see dtube posting again.
