Wow, I had no idea.

As a new user, this is great information to have. I would expect a slight "fee" but 25% is very excessive. I might just stick to youtube as well for now.

I hope the DTube devs take your suggestions to heart. You seem to really care about steemit as a whole.

Thank you, so much, for bringing this information into the light. Love your content man, keep it up!
