I still miss DLive, had no intention on moving my video content over but there was something different about their UX that made them my first option when starting out. Havn't made much video content since. One feature that I belive should be (re-activated) on both DTube and Steemit is view count.
View counts (or hits) are easier to sell to clients who sponsor posts. It's a better metric than up-votes or earnings.
View count is a biggy. A big complaint I get from youtubers I try to port over is the fact there is no view count, no auto upload button and lastly errors while uploading. If we can make the upload process as smooth as possible, add view count and an auto-upload button, I think we would have many more YouTubers that come here stay. It is a shame to see big-time YouTubers on bitchute and not DTube.
The errors while uploading are frustrating to say the least. After a few attempts or so, the avg person loses patience.
I agree totally, fix those three things and DTube will be (back) as a real YouTube competitor.
