RE: When Dtube Shows You NO LOVE!

In my opinion especially with the slow interface is and how incredibly fustrating to upload a video. I never expect upvotes from them but I never expect for them to take 25% of your rewards... Not fair to great content creators like you and small fish like me. Upvotes makes it ok kind of. The bugs are really bad from 3 weeks ago. It takes 5 hours to upload a 5 min video. 5 mins on YouTube and its free. Dlive is working better for me than dtube 100x over

Sort:  

I think in the grand scheme of things DTube is good for Steemit and it will be a cool platform, it's great to have a Youtube alternative but personally I don't use for the reasons you mentioned.

Not only as a creator but even watching videos sometimes. I was watching a video last weekend and it was skipping and buffering so much I finally gave up 2 minutes in even though it was something I really wanted to watch.

Yeah I was all about dtube even with the 25% off the top when I found out after the fact where all my rewards money was going LOL but I really just can't use it I spend hours and hours just trying to upload a video and I mean maybe it could be my internet service provider throttling it but I'm hearing about the same issue all over the platform

I know @kenanqhd was experiencing the same problems with his internet speeds in china. I have pretty fast internet at my office and still run into the same issues

Dtube needs to fix their platform even more before they advertise as a competitor to YouTube or a better alternative or even take 25% of your rewards money for a beta program for a beta program.

Wait I didn't know that part. How does the 25% of your rewards work? They take 25% first and then the curators take 25%? Is that how it works?

It had to do with the last hard Fork. I'm not an expert on it I'm just now finding out about it. I still would be okay with it the whole 25% off the top if the platform was fully functioning and wasn't such a hassle to upload a 5 minute video but still even then 25% is a hefty cut it's like do you want to support the man or a random dude. I don't know Im still a little frustrated with dtube not letting us know that is taking so much up front off the top and most importantly the countless of hours I spent just trying to upload a video multiple times...i beleive the curators still get it off the top im sorry for using catchy term. You just share 25% with dtube after curation i beleive

Does Dlive take 25% as well?

Im pretty sure its 0% but from what I understand to upload a video you do have to have a smaller video size but when I you livestream it's no problem no hassles

In all fairness i half suspect my isp is throttling dtube, However steemians around the world continues to have these same issues

Thanks for all of your info! I was wondering why my rewards were dropping. It was really messing with my math and I thought I had gone crazy lol. Dtube need to make it a point to let people know that they are taking 25% of their rewards. I never knew this info until now. Well until things change or Dtube actually becomes fully functional without being so buggy, I will not being using them any longer.
