RE: SteemPeak is pretty great, but I wonder if this will confuse the new users even more.
I found out about @steempeak a couple of days ago and so far have only used it for replies. I upvote good comments I get and want to normally vote at 3 cents so as not to dust vote. Steempeak is so wonderful for this function. I have not looked much further yet, but so far I am sold.
I've looked a busy a few times, and I am too dumb to figure it out. I posted once to steemgigs and that took a big effort. I tried dtube and that was a full blown month-long disaster of no results. I have 400+ videos on you tube, and I can post there easily, so I am not taking the blame for that one.
I have not tried any of the other offshoots of this place and have a long list of places people think I should try. My biggest failure is not being able to get on discord where it seems a lot of action takes place.
I've been on steemit one year and know more than I did but less than I should. The whole blockchain thingy is a mystery to me. I have learned to set most of this knowledge on ignore as best I can and just keep posting.
Sincerely,
confused plankton
It will get easier as more solutions show up, regarding dtube... yes, at the very beginning it was very difficult to use, its gotten a lot better, but at the same time youtube has at this point a decade of r&d of advantage. I'm willing to bet in just a few more months it will change again, making it even better.
Have you tried dlive? - I've made a few videos, easy enough to use... im not a vlogger, i do better at writing but it was only a few clicks and a cup of patience.
I have not tried dlive, but it is on my list. I think my problem with dtube is that I am in Thailand with unreliable wifi. I try to upload, it looks like it did, but then it didn't. This takes 8 hours, so after about ten times a couple of months ago I gave up :)
