Good news @dlive
@josteem
It's more then great.. This is amazing news and I'm so excited. Can't imagine where our community will be in one years time.
Thank you for the update. I can't begin to say how much I appreciate seeing, and how much I would urge you to continue, being transparent with the community like you are in this post
Yeah @dlive! Best app on Steem! And best community on the web :) Cheers, friends.
Thanks @drkent !
Haha. I'm in love with you @dlive! :)
We love you back @drkent :)
Aw, thanks my friend @redjepi!
Great to see the continued updates @dlive. However I am still having issues watching streams without it stalling or stopping altogether. To be honest most streams are not watchable at all..I am constantly forced to refresh my browser.
One suggestion I have is that livestreams need to be better sorted on the site. Sometimes its not very clear what is actually live and what is a past recording. They are all bunched together on the front page. - In my opinion it should be modeled after Twitch as much as possible.
I am also curious as to how accurate the "viewers" tracker is. Sometimes it seems off and says there are hundreds of people viewing an old video.
All in all keep up the great work, I appreciate all you are doing here and this site has massive potential. With that said there is still much improvement to be made and I will do whatever I can to help support your project continue development going forward.
Hey @thejohalfiles
Apologies for the late response to your comment.
We want to thank you for your support and detailed feedback.
We are sorry to hear that you are having issues watching streams on our site. We have had reports of this issue and are working towards resolving it. We plan to implement more servers soon so streamers around the world will have better connectivity.
The website layout as a whole is currently being looked at and will be changed in the near future. The development team is aware of the viewer count bug and it will be fixed in the next update.
Again thank you for your support, do you have any favorite streamers yet?
I agree with you. great suggestions. on the other hand I think @dlive team work hard to improve the conditions. we glad to see this and we all expect much more things as dlive family because dlive platform have really high potential and it will be take a great place in all social media platform. thanks to @dlive managers, moderators and supporters like you.

Thanks for the updates!
Yea!
This is what I like to see!
Progress and upgrades!
Full Steem ahead~~*
Wow!! You all did a fantastic job with all the upgrades! I was used to posting many posts and to keep checking every few minutes if I was still on the main page! This was an incredible live stream I just had earlier! Thank You! You all are my hero's! #TeamDLive 😎
nice work guys. onwards and upwards. any chance you will increse the thumbnail size for gifs bigger than 1mb or ability to put in a url to our own self hosted gif for speed in the cloud so it's not on your server to get around it or is it just a load time thing?
Thank you for your suggestion @teamhumble. Added to our "to-dos" list.
i've got a bunch of things that would be awesome - i'll make a list/post. congrats on the recent update and thank you for the support in my tutorial videos, more next week ;) great to see myself on the help centre! :)
The site speed improvement alone just made it way easier to use on my cellular device. Just letting you know @dlive way awesome, your team goes above and beyond!
Thank you @dizzjay
This update has been AMAZING! I was streaming earlier and realized just now as I went to download the footage that the video is still up and viewable! How long is that for 24hrs or so? It could be very useful in audience growth, for both the platform and the content creators.
