Yes! Love the energy and vibes! So glad to see you here bro! Many great points!
I think Youtube will essentially be TiVo/Netflix in a couple years...

You are absolutely right about the energy here being similar to YT in the past - with one exception: Everyone on steemit has A VESTED INTEREST in the platform and their OWN REPUTATION... YT is famous for hit and runs - trolling was basically invented there, as well as some of the most disgusting comments - even on kids material - there is no end or limit to the depravity/trolling. Here it's a totally different story, not only is everything that you have invested/earned on the line with your reputation status - but EVERY COMMENT you have ever made is on the blockchain for all to see just a few clicks away... there can be no hit and runs - except by accounts specifically created to troll, and these will lose reputation so quickly they become worthless to maintain. So it's like YT, but no censorship, everyone gets paid, and no one has to drink bleach! Although I think we may expect much less edgier content here for the same reasons. Dtube is still in its infancy, just in the past two months there has been so many updates... and I think it will become obvious that copyrighted material is not what will be getting you paid here, like I said everyone has a vested interest to see the platform succeed.

Thanks for the video, followed!
