You're one of the only ones with a bit of decency. Do you see how others in this 'community bandwaggon' are behaving? Do you want to be part of that? I don't.
JS has been playing by the old adage 'divide and conquer'. Look at how I'm treated in comments for taking a neutral position and refusing to instantly show support, move dtube to another coin, and fuck justin sun. Your bandwaggon of brainless monkeys are too blinded by their free rewards addiction to even notice that.
Talk to you on a better blockchain in the future, STEEM ON @lukestokes.
If you want to be treated with decency, maybe start by not calling people a "bandwaggon of brainless monkeys" (or claiming they are mine). There is definitely a group of people that, IMO, don't treat others with respect, but maybe they feel they are just responding in kind.
I remember in the very early days running a IPFS server to help when you were first testing out DTube. I remember using it, working through the bugs, trying to help test things and bring about improvements with suggestions. I think projects like DTube are important for Steem, but I think some are frustrated to see people supporting Justin and Tron even after they attack Steem and continually go back on their word again and again. A neutral position is one thing, but at some point it seems like playing both sides, even if it screws the community.
Dtube would be fucking awesome if we could change things up so videos could be rewarded for a longer period of time, even indefinitely, most youtube videos don't get the majority of their hits in a week. This new chain could be the place where the kinks get worked out. Just my possibly over optimistic opinion.
"They" being a handful of people, yes? I've been on downvote bots before also. I get it. It sucks. I can also understand why people would be frustrated with someone moving to a new chain, and, from the perspective, abandoning Steem after this community has tried to promote DTube all this time. Maybe there were other solutions that could have been worked out (and maybe can be now on a new chain not limited by Steemit, inc) to ensure longer payouts on evergreen content.
Maybe a separate rewards pool could take some inflation and only pay it out over a long period of time (6 months, 1 year, etc) and a poster could choose which bucket they wanted to be rewarded with. Or maybe an SMT is the way to go.
Understood. Unfortunately many in the space only think about numbers in their wallets.
Thanks for sharing that detailed post. I understand the need to innovate and evolve and you made a lot of good points there for what you want to accomplish.
