The more youtube creates policies that punish creators the bigger opportunity is created for those on Steem. Youtube makes it seem like they are giving you some gift by allowing you to monetize as if they aren't keeping a majority of the proceeds.
Steem and dTube are revolutionary and are returning the power of creating content to the creators. Thank you for the information and your opinion on this matter. We need more people like you to help spread the word of Steem and dTube.
There is still one thing about DTube that few users are paying attention to. DTube reward system. While after (which is quite impossible for most content creators to reach 10k lifetime views on their YouTube channel plus 4k hours of watched time on their video (in the preceding 12 months) and still a 1000 subscribers) after reaching that milestones the content creator is able to monetize forever as it's content get more and more views. On DTube by the present reward system after 30 days, it does not matter how many more people watch your videos, you will never get paid again.
Good point however it would be good to analysis the 'long tail' on Youtube videos and see just how much comes from views in the first week and how much revenue is generated from later views.
I do think that the rewards system will heavily dictate the type of content uploaded to dTube. E.g. I can see it being a popular place for Topical videos not so popular for things like music videos.
great point. People are starting to realize they don't want someone else to filter the world for them, handle their money, or control their personal lives. Platforms are by people and should be for people.
well said !
