Steemit is a plutocracy. Rule by the wealthy. Look it up. Those with steem power determine what is 'worthy' content. This is the only aspect of steemit that I don't think is fair.
Yep, that's the central question, the only viable option now is probably IPFS (please correct me if I'm wrong), Sia is not ready (no public URLs for files you add to your wallet), Storj is centralized and just switching to ETH (e.g. not really stable), MAID is also still alpha, no storage layer yet afik, and also Ethereum Swarm is not ready yet...
So Steemit.com will replace facebook, twitter, reddit; Steemqa will replace Youtube; Steepshot will replace Instagram. Looks like all of social media will be replaced soon!!
Youtube is what, 12 years old and Facebook is 14 years old. Decade is a plenty of time given that this is a community effort instead of corporate one. And day by day the issues of censhorship is growing. Perfect storm is brewing.
Yup I have to agree there, I'm used to seeing normal pages and it's a bit shameful that most sites have to put up with shitty adds to support their revenue.
Not really just stimulating the making of adblockers :D to help us clean the net of trashy commercials, why can't we ditch the marketing methods so deeply rooted in TV, stay a sleep and buy shit :| we will feed you good ideas every 20 minutes :) Strange world it is, how about the SteemQ do you like the idea, will you vlog :D
I hate that too. Facebook is getting very bad about that. I tried to post something related to bitcoin and the facebook algorithm denied my link as unsafe. I know for a fact the content was safe.
I will, but not in the first version. VP9 encoding and webm container format are pretty cool, however there is no general cross-platform native support yet, so for now it makes sense to keep things simple, and stick to H264.
I would like to stick to a single format, to keep storage costs low. Thus, it makes sense to use formats that are natively supported by all devices OOTB. We are close though, very close.
For most video creators they're used to making videos with H.264. It's best to match what YouTubers are good at doing right now than improving and offering way more solutions in the future!
I'm buying steem right now! This is also incredible because I can then upload guitar vids straight to steemit instead of going through youtube. Wicked as! :D
he there :D, I'm a 3D person :D how is the graphic design going, are you up for collaborations and maybe projects over freelancer if we work together, as for the dota I'm pissed they made the league of dotas :| so I'm playing Path of Exile :D literally and figuratively :D which remind me I need to stop that and steem on again haha
Where will the videos be stored?
lol - They will not, demonetize us... they will not demonetize us... they will not...
Probably a storage blockchain like Storj or Sia, or even possibly Maidsafe.

A big fish must have liked your content. Their opinions are worth more.

I for one don't care how it looks, as long as it works!
Indeed...
Thats what she said ? lol

Through their censorship and political activities, they are sowing the seeds of their own demise. I won't shed a tear.
ya?....it wil replace....in 67 years. :)
Well, maybe sooner..... but dont expect this to happen in a decade
Youtube is what, 12 years old and Facebook is 14 years old. Decade is a plenty of time given that this is a community effort instead of corporate one. And day by day the issues of censhorship is growing. Perfect storm is brewing.
I expect it'll happen much sooner than that if it happens at all.
As long as the steemit stays as it is, with a clean, simple and no advertising interface okay! 😉
yes please.
no distractions from watching the material

it has the opposite result of what they intended.

Just tired of other entities having the power to censor whatever they think is dangerous, fake, or puts them in the spotlight

WOW! amazing!
i was sure u will be the guy who makes it :)
Awesome work @furion, thanks for building this! Youtube's days are numbered :)
Please, make it webm!
I will, but not in the first version. VP9 encoding and webm container format are pretty cool, however there is no general cross-platform native support yet, so for now it makes sense to keep things simple, and stick to H264.
If steemit.chat can handle it, I'm sure it wont take too long in this project :p

Good job :)

Well well well look at that.
