RIP DLive - They are leaving the Steem Blockchain - First Thoughts.

I really don't know what to say...

Thank you @dlive for the upvotes and support this year, I wish you guys much luck with your new venture.

Let me know what you think?

Why are they leaving? Is it good?

Yeah... it is good they are leaving

It is what it is right? But no matter what they have helped a lot of creators and the platform was always good. So I am thankful for all the support they gave me and wish them all the best :)

I'm sure it's a bummer for a lot of people but for me personally? Meh... I like @dtube a lot better anyway. I just hope it's not the first domino.

I am right there with you!

Cool. The more I think about it, the more I think that this is a great opportunity for @dtube if they step up to the plate right now and start hitting more home runs with more and more new features. All the attention is on them for a while... If they snooze, someone else will fill @dlive's shoes and @dtube will have to share the video content again here on steem.

That is so very true! I hope DTube comes out with new features. That would be awesome.

Something better and less buggy will come along....

Someone is always working on the next best thing... We'll see who gets it done.

I don't think its the first domino. Have you read @meno's comment on their post. It looks like this was their plan all along.

Thanks, I read it now. Hmmm. Very interesting and even more reason to ignore Dlive now. Let them try and fail, whatever...
@dtube, it's your time to shine and start adding new and better working features asap...

Will not for sure!

They are just moving to their own blockchain so they can make more $$$.
Currently top streamer has 20 viewers, good luck on the new blockchain...

I'm gonna go ahead and drop this stank in here..

This is the major issue Dlive highlighted on steemit platform...where voting get manipulated by Bots and good content remain at bottom side of steemit....up to some level i agree with them...After all it is their choice.

Great job covering the situation! Personally I'm pretty neutral about the situation. @dlive did a lot of cool things for the STEEM blockchain and showed us something that was possible. I always expected some of these projects to end up on their own chain. At the end of the day it can become hard to share the reward pool with others. I don't know if their governance model and payout system will work over there but for the most part I look at it like this.

We can join Lino and upload over there as well as on DTube and earn on two blockchains for the same video and extend our reach. Maybe it ends up being something big or maybe they can't get the wealth base to the token so the payouts are negligible. Working with Vice right now it is very clear how crucial those first few weeks can be on launching a chain properly and not ending up with super whales.

We will see what happens .

What it sounds like to me is LINO had a 20 million dollar ICO, then they used a portion of that money to buy DLive. The guy selling DLive is a part of the LINO team.

Yeah that's what it sounds like to

These platforms just can't grow enough on Steem due to restricted registrations on Steem. Until this gets faster, services like Dtube and Dlive cannot get enough traction.

Of course, that’s set to change the day they leave, as HardFork 20 takes effect and would have allowed them to register plenty of new accounts directly themselves through their own site.
As others have pointed out and have explained thoroughly in other articles, evidence is clear dLive always intended to only use Steem as a test and early marketing. Their leaving was preplanned and has little to nothing to do with any shortcomings of Steem.

Well...... 👋 Bye.....

I never used Dlive. I'm happy with D.tube, as long as they stick around. I think Steemit is a little more resilient than that. There's a pretty strong community here. Yea, there are disagreements, but nothing we can't work through.

It dose not effect me, I doubt I ever even watched a video Dlive. I am sorry to see it go for those who do use the service though. But given the nature of the Steem block chain I am sure we will see a replacement for Dlive in the near furture

Try @vimm is a dlive alternative in alpha

Can someone tell me the gist of what was announced. THe post is hidden due to low ratings and clicking on "Show" does not show it. I have no idea of the ins and outs, of why it's moving and how that affects a Steemit user and why we need to revoke access. Thanks :)

Left of Dlive from steemit does not hurt me because it is the beauty of Blockchain that Everybody is free to move to some.

Steemit do not need Dlive for its identity but Dlive needs Steemit for their identity , if they left it is their choice.

This was news to me. Kinda crazy man! But I never got into Dlive much, always liked DTube. I wish them luck. It definitely stinks for those who have support DLive so much though.

Thanks Revoked.

For me is a sad day. My major content is based on streaming and video's related to gaming and now this? I wasn't upload videos on śrubę because i don't like that mu video isn't only avible for one month, and if I wanna keep it longer - still I have use Youtube to have backup. And now I don't have option to go with my videos. At least @Vimm is for steamers

I don t get their reason for changing to that other blockchain. One of their arguments is that they want content creators to be rewarded by tips ... Well it s possible to send tips with steem too ... without any transaction fee.

A other point they did mention is that they leave because users with a lot of Power are only self upvoting. Well I don t like that too ... but I don t think this is going to change at the new chain. Lets say there are to users. User A: 1000Lino User B: 0Lino. Now User A does tip 1000 Lino to User B. After that the User B will return the 1000 Lino to User A as a tip. Well now User A has 1000 Lino and User B 0 Lino just as we started. BUT now both will get a share of the inflationpool because they both got 1000Lino as tip. This will be exploited even more than the selfupvoting.

I don't totally get why everyone is so upset.

you know what i think?

what is the difference between Dlive and Stream in Dtube ?

Damn... I was planning to find new ways to organize my videos and upload more to DLive, while attempting to treat it differently than my DTube account... I actually liked that DLive and DTube were both alternate platforms using Steemit (and the Steem blockchain) so I will miss DLive.

Well, sort of, I am going to see about continuing to use DLive, I welcome the idea of using multiple platforms, and in a way this just makes DLive a more "different" different platform. So I will see what happens.
Still I was more comfortable with the status-quo where DLive was on the Steem blockchain along with DTube and DPorn.

Anyway, I'm hoping for the best.

howdy sir reseller! well I have no idea what those guys are doing, I thought they were growing like crazy. Well anyway people are now going to Vimm?
thanks for the information sir!

Incredible, they go just like that, and those people who were working, for example, many Venezuelans were creating good content through @dlive. I wish you all the best, that is why I always preferred @dtube, nothing more to the naked eye than the purple color I do not like :)

I don't buy the share thing , the only reason Dtube , Dlive and Bichute exsists was because all the alternative media fled refuge to these channels , the corperate media and China bought them out , it's that simple. They'll try to buy you out first to crossover then if that don't work then they'll just censor you. Nobody is safe , let's see if Dtube will bite and cross over.

There is also another alternative https://www.vimm.tv/ on steemit if you are looking for new place.

Why are you down voting my content? @osakaghoul

Your content about D.live was slightly a misleading, it was a tough call to upvote or downvote, but had to go against the masses. Don't take it personally

Thanks for the explanation. Not sure I fully understand but I'm just going to mute you now. I wish you luck here on steemit.

Thats not going to work, try making actual comments, its a lot better and easier to get noticed if you are participating in meaningful discussion rather than spamming.
