In case you haven't noticed, we have a direct attack on our freedom of speech. Hundreds of free speech accounts were wiped off of YouTube with no reasonable explanation. This is exactly why 3Speak was made, and right now, some of the biggest content creators in the world are without a place to post their content.
My Tweet: "With the most recent Youtube purge of freedom of speech, tag a de-platformed content creator that isn't banned from Twitter yet & let them know about the free speech platform https://3speak.online/ on #Steem.
Freedom of speech is still alive, well & is immutable on #3Speak."
It seems Twitter is the last centralized platform that people are banned. However, don't hand your hat on Twitter, these creators are standing on thin ice, 3Speak is a solid rock for them to stand!
Mission: Tag a de-platformed content creator on my tweet (https://bit.ly/2Z873JY) with a short explanation on 3speak being a place they can have a chance to post their views.
Post a pic of your contribution in the comments below and receive a nice sized upvote.
Examples of people who have recently been banned from Youtube but are still on Twitter: @Lukewearechange / @WeAreChangeNYC / @PressForTruth and countless others.
Alright, looks like I got Sinatra_Says attention.148k subs. Political commentary channel.

Would be stellar if yall would approve my application. I am ready to join the fray. I'm somewhat of an antiblogger and weaponized meme expert.
Also, have been banned for expressing my views on political subreddits and FB groups when my logic meets feelings.
You give me a chance and won't disappoint.
Also, could you give a brotha a follow? Would help me out with busy.pay votes which in turn helps power the antiabuse community. I am a hodler.
I tagged @secureteam10. He was demonetized on YT a few days back.
Done 💪

would be good to also promote platforms people can actually join. most people have complained to me 3speak isn't decentralized and requires approval to post. Dtube requires no approvals. Even if you are banned from d.tube you can still roll your own and post quite easy. .exe will be released soon.
Yea I did up a pretty good little video on the onelove twitter account for d.tube emphasizing the censored from YouTube 😉 I agree though the easy on would be D.tube!
Stoked to see that application come to reality @gray00, that’s a pretty big development ❤️

Great initiative. Thanks for doing this!
The hodgetwins were here for a while while steem and steem dollars was way up there... wasn’t there also a competitive eater who has over a million followers on YouTube on here? Furious something... let’s get the price of steem and steem dollars back up and that will attract people... honestly... pump the price and they WILL come
What you guys doing is amazing??? But what about all the content creators that we have already in the community and that have been working really hard to keep it alive and keep content coming and invested time and work in growing in here. Many of them are abandoned and forgotten in the mix don't you think???
I'm not saying we don't need new content creators and that we shouldn't support them. But should we also focus on the ones that have been here and have been faithful to the Steem Community??? Just saying.
3Speak is specifically for content creators who have been de-platformed off of YouTube and Twitch, etc. For most people, DTube is a great place to earn and be seen (I quit YouTube for DTube). We wanted to offer fast HD video and just as important, streaming, and to do that we can only host so many people (the cost are exponential, and without a good business plan it is easy to sink before you even get started). We are a niche specific to solve this issue.
The selection process will become much more decentralized as we introduce the community into voting which creators they want to see next on the platform from those who have applied to be on.
You know I am not hating on it. I am all for new projects. New platforms in the blockchain. Growing and bringing more people from outside. But I feel that many developers and projects right now (not only 3speak) are so focus in supporting and making sure that new users get rewards that they are forgetting about the people they have already on the blockchain and that have been putting their blood and tears in creating content in here. You know I am a Dtuber at heart but I am not against posting in different platforms if the content it is original and different. Even back when Dlive where in the Steem blockchain I was uploading some content in there. What I wanted to bring in this conversation is that I feel many projects now are neglecting the Steem Community in benefit of creators that are already doing pretty well in mainstream social media. I hope you didn't saw this as an attack to what you guys are doing. But it's just you know I am a big believe on the Steem blockchain and I feel that many content creators in here are being left being to the benefit of people that have never done anything for the community and are just joining for the $$$$$$$ not giving a lot back to the community itself. 🤔 I hope I have explained myself

Awesome initiative. Let´s get all those deplatformed authors to our blockchain where freedom of speech is and will always be guaranteed and let everyone decide what they want to read and see. Thank you guys Dan and @threespeak, looks like you are filling a very important niche in the cyber space.
Did you notice the news channel @rt-international (website) is already on STEEM, using DTube most of the time ... Maybe it would be more attractive and pleasant for them to use 3Speak instead (because of higher upvotes, better quality and every lasting videos ...).
If you think that's interesting you may try to contact them under one of their posts.
Unpopular Opinion:
Since when is YouTube required to give everybody a platform?
Is it part of your countries government structure?
I think it is a private owned company and they can do whatever they want with their free service.
So many snowflakes complaining.
Also, it will be interesting to see all those right wing and hate speeches on 3speak. Nice bubble there.
Another one, banned some hours ago..

Love the idea of 3speak.online to bring creators in a platform where they can be themself. I'm trying to push and gather the drone community here on steemit instead. Thanks so much for what you do for the platform @theycallmedan
Oh man now I wish I used that platform so that I could throw some of these free-speech folks a life ring.
Go-go Dan army!

How do you think the proposed changes of reducing author payout to 50% will affect prospective content creators? Do you think they'll still come on board because they don't know? Or will that be something that discourages them from creating content here? Does the payout matter, or are the people coming mainly for an outlet for their material instead of potential compensation?
A good question. My own view: it will discourage people and some may leave. People left when crypto tanked. Some of us, who only create content earn little. What keeps us here is community - and the prospect of earning something. Sometime.

Why not focus on getting all content creators? If we target only banned creators there’s a risk of the platform being viewed as only for hate speech or something. I’ll definitely be posting a travel video or two to 3Speak but if the platform is filled with white suprematism, racism, far right shows, far left shows, etc. I’d have to rethink it.
Posted using Partiko iOS
I completely agree. I cannot find it in myself to support or share the views of a racist or white supremacist. Similarly, views from the loony left. Notwithstanding their right to express their views. In the context, however, of the principle of do no harm
Posted using Partiko Android
I’m fine with them having a voice but to have them own the whole platform is worrying. I’m just one person and not every site is for me so no biggie I guess

Agreed

3Speak is for deplatformed content creators. To have high-quality videos and live streaming in HD, you have to scale smart. We have DTube for the masses while 3Speak is niche focused on onboarding creators that need censorship restitance because they were/are being censored.
Oh, fair enough then
