Your daughter is adorable that is the sweetest voice I ever heard.
Yes...yes...yes Beth I hear you and agree with you loud and clear. I could not agree with you more. I have over 700 followers on my platform now I was looking through them today I actually wanted to look through them one by one because I can bet not even 5 % of those followers are active.
I actually made a post about why I follow such a low number of people last night, not sure if you seen it or not. And I explained that if I have to high a number I cannot engage with them all, so I just can't do it.
So onto the matter of DTube, like you I love DTube I think they have a great platform, but I hope they see this post and read these comments. If Dtube is getting delegation, which I believe it might be I confess openly I am not delegating to the platform right now not to DTube anyway. But with a high SP either it should be transparent on what projects they are working on or rewarding the creators which like you said it is, but not all the time.
It frustrates me their lack of posts and seemingly lack of communication , DTube has its own discord server, going in there most of the time its like tumbleweed. Now go to DLive and its thriving, DLive is doing a lot more for the creators to encourage them to keep making content including contests and recognition.
Personally I would love to see DTube go high up in the rankings and get the respect it deserves, because it has the potential to go a long way if it gets its act together.
Regarding what you were saying though about content creators moving from you tube and then leaving, well my take on this is they should not depend on whales and DTube to support them, if their followers are true they will follow them anywhere. If they have to start from scratch where existing content creators are making more of them, then that's right because their doing the hard work.
But to sum it up you're right DTube if you are going to reward your creators you need to have some consistency, because right now im confused as hell???
