The Youtubian Exodus - It's time for @Dtube and @steemit to rise!

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I think we are witnessing history in the making my friends. I was just over on the other part of the Internets checking out what my youtube subs were doing while I've been gone, and It's not looking good in Youtubeland, not one bit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;This is great news for <a href="https://d.tube/">Dtube</a> my friends, this could be YUGE as they say around these parts. If you are curious of all the details regarding this latest move by Google/Youtube, I would encourage you to check out the 2 gazillion videos that have been made on the subject. But, long story short, little channels just went kapoot.

<h1>I'm not celebrating, but we will soon enough</h1>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I think what Google and his cousin Youtube fail to see, is that many small channels are their biggest consumers, and they stick around, interact and create, hoping to become big channels one day. I mean, just think about it, unless a brand new Tubester (yes, I like this word better) has magical powers, the only "hope" he or she had to make it was a combination of great content, and algorithmic luck. Basically, the right suggestion popping up on the right menu, with the ability of capitalizing on that <b>one viral video</b> that changed it all. 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;With this new policy, A lucky tubinati could have a video with a million views, and not quality for monetization, because of subs, and Youtube not reviewing the channel yet to see if it "qualifies" to be a partner. In other words...

</center>

<h1> I feel bad for these folks</h1>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Don't get me wrong, I feel terrible for the little channels, the small creators, some of them I follow myself. But, I can definitely see the silver lining, this pain, this uncomfortable thing, can become the catalyst for sites like <a href="https://d.tube/">Dtube</a> and the Steem Blockchain as a whole.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;They simply have no choice but to change too. Their plans for being the next big Youtubian have suddenly vanished. I think now, playing the lotto might be a better gamble, better odds and probably cheaper too.


<h1>So I'm taking matters into my own hands</h1> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I reached out today to three Youtubists. So far one response, but that's OK. I intend to keep this up, and everyday reach out to one upset Youtubista and tell him/her that the game is not over, but the princess is in another castle.

</center> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;But hey, before you click away from this post, let me personally and inpersonally invite you, to invite people, to invite other people, to join us. And if you see one of these Youtubarians crying foul, don't miss the opportunity to talk to them about <a href="https://d.tube/">Dtube</a>  and how the game does not have to end there.

<h1>This is a bad news, good news scenario.... And you can be the one to deliver the good news!! </h1>

Now go!! be ninja...

Sure thing.  I would be all over Dtube if it would let me post anything.  If and when it will recognize that I have uploaded a snap it still won't post the video.....something about an ifps error or something.  Anyone know a solution to this problem?

any issues Dtube might have report them at their discord server...  https://discord.gg/k5fTWQ2

they are usually awesome and quick at helping Steemians...

I do have some doubts over whether dtube is quite ready for the mainstream, but those Tubesters can at least post their videos on Steemit to earn something

I totally get where you are coming from... i guess if i had to be honest dtube is not quite there.... yet... but lets no forget its a project on its infancy and it has improved ten fold in a matter of months. I think by the time Youtube feels the sting, Dtube will probably be just as efficient, if not better, and it won't take 8 years, like it did for youtube to get there.

It is early days and I'm sure it will improve. I think there are some issues with the IPFS storage to be resolved. It has a cost and isn't permanent
