I liked the video and I agree with what you said about the first point. However, I do personally disagree on the second part.
Speed does get faster, yes. But every situation you used was a situation where there was no better (faster) alternative at the time, DTube is different because right here, right now, we have much faster alternate platforms. Will it get worked out in time? I have no doubt. But for me personally speed is the biggest problem with DTube right now. I don't want to even bother browsing videos here because it is too slow for me (yes, I do have gigabit internet and am very particular about speeds haha), and like I said, other platforms are currently just so much faster. DTube has potential, and in time it will get better for sure. For now though, the experience here is just too painfully slow for me.
On a side note, video buffering is also far too long. I am not sure how it is hosted currently as I know they were asking for seeders a while ago. But it's definitely another factor that makes watching videos here no enjoyable an experience currently.
I did enjoy your video though, and definitely agree that the future is bright :)
Much respect to you my brotha for sharing your intelligent opinion! Thanks so much :) Just out of curiosity, what are the faster alternative platforms for DTube right now? That are on a blockchain and decentralized? I didn't realize there were working alternatives.
I love this comment, it's getting me to think :)
Thank you again, man!

Sorry, I should have made that more clear! Nothing on the block chain, I meant platforms such as YouTube and Vimeo. But when you say it like that I realise that they aren't really alternatives as they are completely different platforms.
I guess what I meant is alternatives for viewing, as for the viewer it doesn't matter if it's on a block chain or not, as long as it works and is pleasant to use.
I tried to watch some videos yesterday and they stopped in the middle to buffer :/ When they can fix the speeds I will love DTube though!
