RE: Is dTube better than YouTube?
I agree with you on all points actually. I assume dTube will increase their capabilities as it grows - I'd love to see 4K video etc on there too.
As for gaming the system, that's the trouble now with YouTube. I feel like it used to be a meritocracy where creating premium great videos would get the most views. Now I don't feel like that's the case at all and lots of quality videos by good creators just get ignored.
I only shoot video in 4K because the other resolutions do not produce good low light image quality, and I don't control the lights; I get what I get. The draw back to that resolution is that the files are huge. There is too much competition on YT and they seem to favor the bigger channels. I think it ties in with the search engine algorithm where the "well established authority" on any subject gets a higher ranking and is presented first, and naturally gets more attention. That's where gaming the system comes in, but I don't really have time for that.
