Functionabilty:
This one is pretty obvious:
It’s completely understandable to take on this method because we obviously need a fully functioning site to post and interact etc… Great job by the devs on getting a functioning site and for coming so far and I know the team is working hard on it.
Searchability:
This one I think is a little more complicated. And I have some genuine questions to ask.
I think that the searchability aspect on dtube is related to Steemit with the 7 day payout period. Hot/Trending videous, but would it be possible for dtube to make videos visible in spite of this on the dtube platform only? And could this 7-day payout period be contributing to the lack in diversity of content? Will people who don’t always get hot/trending videos even be visible at all in the long run?
I’m finding it somewhat to find videos I like… I know one of the major reasons is there just isn’t that much content on dtube as of yet in general… but I think also many people have leaning towards making videos about dtube/blockchain in hopes that it will bring them a dtube upvote also.
Let me know Dtubers, I need some help, and I’m sure I’m not the only one out there!
This leads to my next question:
Will dtube eventually have more personal type of videos or will it always be heavily based on blockchain? Obviously, it is blockchain based so I know that will always be a dominant theme on dtube and that’s great.
Even though I’m interested in blockchain and cryptos, I really hope the future of dtube willhave other interests searchable and visible, and an abundant amount of diverse content.
For example: lifestyle, homesteading, travel, even things that I’m not interested in or things that are not necessarily related to blockchain. Will there be a future for that on dtube? I really hope there will be. There is starting to be more posts about different interests, but they are just not very visible at this time. Because of the way Steemit makes content visible.
Is there an audience for non block chain related videos? Should I do it anyways? Should I not? What do you guys think? What do you guys on the dtube community think?
With 7-day payout deal on Steemit, if someone posts a more personal video today, will it be visible down the road if another user was looking for that type of content or would it just be lost on the blockchain forever?
Will videos that don’t go hot or trending ever be visible? Can dtube find a way around this issue? Is this even an issue for others?
What do you guys think, leave your comments down below, I would love to hear what you think. Thanks for watching
Are functionability and searchability even real words? ;-)
