RE: Ideas For Improving DTube

in #dtube • 6 years ago

dhenz14 on discord.

  1. A subscription plan people can opt into - 10$ a month currently run by @onelovedtube - Most people don't know this options exist, so to have the option built into @dtube settings would be ideal.

  2. I would like to mimic the brave model where advertisers would buy steem and pay steemians for watching the ads. Just like the Brave model but with Steem. As Steem(it) grows and other UIs we can even become a sort of crypto search engine and play the google adwords game but with crypto. Possibly is endless but the sooner we build it the quicker it can grow.

    1. OK
    2. So its not mandatory to use Brave browser. I have been thinking about a model using blockchain unlike BAT. One of the challenges is with the existing TPS of blockchains, its not possible to track impressions, perform header bidding or even basic old school RTB. I am sure we can think of various hybrid models but to begin with we will have to limit to basic targeting based on geo-locations, browser URLs etc and count the CPM using a basic ad-engine. https://www.revive-adserver.com/ Can be a starting point.

    advertisers would buy steem and pay steemians for watching the ads

    How to identify which Steem user / NAI has seen the ad ?

    Since blockchain cannot handle this particular aspect will have to built into the UIs. A way could be track which user is logged using the authentication token.

    May be I am over complicating the ads delivery. Different PoV will be helpful.

      @theycallmedan - it will be great if you can reply the above. Someone asked me to help with an estimation for these tasks. A rough list of use cases is below and I am trying to create an estimation.

      1. IPFS integration (backend)
      2. IPFS API @onelovedtube (May be Privex can offer too)
      3. Tipping: Those with liquid SBD/STEEM should be able to tip (UI + backend)
      4. Video Sizes : intelligently detect size from the UI
      5. Offer premium plans for unlimited storage (follow flickr model ?)
      6. Integrate BAT or mimic BAT (need clarity)
      7. Auto post button while uploading - aka "post once upload is completed"
      8. "Currently watched" section of videos
      9. View Count
      10. Theater mode - may need change in the player
      11. Ability to set who rewards go to for that video. (charity videos etc.) : choose benefactor. Needs clarification.
      12. Remember location of the stream : may need enhancement to the player
      13. Favorites/add to Favorites
      14. Private videos (Can be multiple modes so need clarification)
      15. Feature a post / video (anyones)
      16. Guru videos section, for people that teach people things. (Khan Academy)
      17. "Most Responded Videos." - most popular
