DLive is joining the Lino blockchain, moving away from Steem
Dear DLivers & Steemians,
I have some news about DLive to share with everyone on DLive and Steemit. Before I get into the details, I want to take a moment to thank @ned and Steemit Inc. for the support. Steem is an amazing blockchain. It was the first project to introduce its own content-focused blockchain to provide an outlet for those content creators being censored, demonetized, and treated unfairly on other platforms like Youtube, Facebook, Twitter, and Twitch. I sincerely feel that DLive adds value to the Steem blockchain and we have shown the new and existing users of Steemit just how great this blockchain is. However, we have realized that a consumption-based economy is indispensable for the long-term sustainability of any live streaming and video applications. The major source of income for streamers should be highly dependent on their viewers supporting them through various methods such as tipping, gifting, and subscriptions. Now, it is time to start a new chapter on this journey. On Monday, September 24th at 10:00 am PDT, DLive will be migrating to the Lino blockchain testnet. During the migration, DLive will be down for the entire day. On Tuesday, September 25th at 10:00 am PDT, we will be back up and running but on the Lino blockchain testnet.
This may come as a shock to our Community but my team and I have had thorough discussions about truly bringing this platform to the next level. Yes, there is a bunch of development work that needs to be done before we become competitive but we feel this move to Lino will greatly improve the user experience and performance of DLive. More importantly, it will create a sustainable future for DLive. The Lino blockchain not only maintains the important positive attributes for why DLive decided to utilize blockchain technology for live streaming but also provides solutions for a more decentralized and stable infrastructure, fee-less transactions, and can process over 10,000 transactions per second which is ideal for micro transactions. On top of all this, Lino’s main focus is to revolutionize the video content ecosystem and will be providing resources and support to make it a reality. The Lino Team is a group of talented individuals that share the same vision in the future of blockchain and video industry. Your original content should not become something that is manipulated by anyone or entity. We believe by utilizing the Lino ecosystem that DLive can become a killer app that stands out from all the DApps in the world.
On Tuesday, September 25th at 10:00 am PDT after the migration is complete, you can expect to see a glimpse of "The New DLive" along with a new UI and the new branding. It is an exciting change for every DLiver. Unfortunately, after the migration, the DLive android application will be down for roughly a week. For all the users that are using the mobile application, we ask that you use the web app, or navigate to https://dlive.io on your mobile browsers.
Why is DLive migrating?
We've been monitoring analytics and we were not able to reward our content creators with the true value of their content. Our focus was to grow our user base, and build an engaging live streaming and video community while growing Steem as well, and deliver upvotes as evenly as possible during the last 9 months. However, the current economic model of Steem incentivizes large Steem holders to continuously upvote their own content and other creators who specifically support their content. This creates an ecosystem where a content’s true value can't be recognized or be fairly rewarded. Community members who are not "privileged" enough to be a part of these groups with large voting power are therefore penalized financially. This problem has been brought up many times within the community and even by prominent figures outside of the community. We believe that this problem, along with the current market conditions has led to a decreased consumption rate of live streams and videos on the platform and is one of the most important issues we are looking to resolve. For DLive to reach the next level of live streaming and video, we need a more sustainable ecosystem and a more fair mechanism to encourage content consumption and production on the platform.
There are other issues that will be addressed after the migration. Things like account setups. Account setups are instant on the new DLive, you can create an account and start live streaming or uploading videos within a few minutes. This is so important for mainstream adoption. We monitored our guest accounts and found that only a small percentage were able to wait for a Steemit account to start using our platform.
For improving the live streaming experience, you can start and stop your broadcast whenever you like straight from your broadcasting software. There is no need to make a new post every time you go live. There are many more reasons why we are migrating and I believe if you sign into DLive on Tuesday, September 25th as a new or existing user you will agree.
How will DLive users be rewarded during the Lino testnet phase?
During the test net period on the Lino blockchain, we will use LINO Testnet Points to reward users. Rewards will be delivered through tipping and gifting rather than upvotes. All the users will be allocated a certain amount of free LINO Points when they sign up. Users will also be able to buy LINO Points in order to make donations. We will also have channel subscriptions enabled shortly after the migration, so you will be able to subscribe to your favorite channels. However, consumption is very important to support content creators. The major source of income for content creators will come from the donations from viewers and fans who truly appreciate the original content, and eventually, the DLive team will reward users through the Lino blockchain inflation pool instead of directly rewarding users through tipping.
Lino has an inflationary rewards pool similar to Steemit. This is paid out on top of your tips, gifts, and channel subscriptions based on Proof of Content Value; it will be done automatically based on the consumption using a proprietary algorithm. The reward pool distribution to you, as a content creator, will be proportional to the amount that your content earnings constitute of the entire tipping pool earnings.
For example, when you receive a $5 tip, and the remainder of the entire DLive ecosystem content tipping pool within the same time frame generates an additional $95, your earnings constitute 5% of the total earnings pool and therefore will be rewarded approximately 5% of the inflationary reward pool. All the posts on the Lino blockchain will not have 7-day earnings window, which means all the posts can be tipped and earn bonus rewards from the inflation rewards pool forever.
Earnings for a single post (live stream or video) ≈ Donations from viewers + Bonus rewards from blockchain inflation.
Introducing the New Community Hub
End-user experience has always been and will always be a top priority for us. Nothing will change with this migration, we understand how resistant the Community may be to change but let me assure you that our team will be here to assist in anything you may need. We just launched a new Community Hub in replacement of the Help Center, dedicated to all of DLive’s users. The new Community Hub consists of a help center, a forum, a blog, and customer support services. From now on you can access all the resources you need in one location.
As always our team is accessible through Discord, DLive Fanbase and the new Community Hub, 24 hours a day. If you have any questions that are not addressed in the Community Hub, please don't hesitate to contact us.
A New Chapter, A New Start
To show our appreciation, all DLive accounts created prior to September 24th will receive 100 LINO Points as a bonus, when you sign in to The New DLive and claim your Lino blockchain account.
The New DLive on a new blockchain. It is a change as well as a challenge to DLive and everyone in the community. It is a new journey for both DLive and the Lino blockchain and I am sure everyone will love it.
We have always valued the opinion of our Community. If you will be using #TheNewDLive and are supportive of this change, leave a comment below. I can’t wait to hear from all of you!
Again, thanks @steemit, hello #LinoNetwork.
Best Regards,
Charles Wayn (Kent)
CEO, DLive
Frequently Asked Questions & Answers
The New Community Hub
How do I log in to the New DLive?
Will my previous live streams and videos be lost during the migration?
Where can I find more information about the Lino network?
Fuck you greedy douchebag.
No worries, the Steem ecosystem won't feel a thing for them leaving.
Dust in the wind.
#steem-on
We'll have a better project up and running within a few weeks, I would bet.
hahaha that tends to happen a lot. :) Not judging any upvotes, just pointing out that a lot of one line posts and comments get upvoted by whales.
I accidentally fell into the trap of not understanding how everything balances out. Bernie helped a lot by using his SP to flag this post, so it's fair for him to be rewarded for that.
Just takes some uncrystallized neurons to realize that comments can be used as a way to transfer funds to a deserving party!
Ahh that makes total sense, I hadn't realize that at all. Again I never judge upvotes lol. If people upvote themselves or their friends, for one word or long paragraphs of work. Cool. haha. I just do my thing and make videos and always appreciate the upvotes when I get them. And I agree about having the open mind, too. I just wish people would be nicer with each other here. I get that people are pissed, and for good reason, but I think civility goes a long way.
Agreed.
I’m just glad I can stop waiting for this dlive video to load 🤷♀️
LOL!!!!
Yeah, soon, there will be no videos. They will probably delete all the clips they are hosting, so, goodbye content created by Steemians. :)
All of the current content will be migrated and available on DLive still.
Can we request that this be avoided and that our content be removed?
Anyone who lives in the EU has a right to this.
For Americans, I suppose if we request a takedown and it isn't respected we can always submit a DMCA notice.
Submit a support ticket and I'll see what I can do~
How is this going to affect the delegation project that you had going on?
I will unfortunately be ending both projects. I may create a new community for a platform that cares about the Steem ecosystem. I will be posting about it soon.
Couldn't agree more lmao !!!
bahaha @llfarms! Your comment cracked me up!
Me too, but at least they loaded unlike Dtube which did not load my older Dtube videos.
I must applaud your creativity @elgeko
I love you Bernie. I wish you were my dad.
Politely put.
!popcorn
lol
Haha, I was thinking of doing that as well but, you were faster, lol.
![]
)
!popcorn
Thanks for the free popcorn.
That's for myself but just bought one more just for you!
!popcorn
hahaha Steem will only be stronger as their only power was because of @ned delegation now that goes back to Steem!
Hi Bernie don't you also think that a statement of @ned would be apropriated now?
He never made any statements about their massive delegations. Expect none.
I agree with @tcpolymath that Steemit, Inc. ought to be transparent about their delegations. But, you probably already agree. And you are probably right that they won't change their odd, secretive method for selecting delegatees, which is really too bad.
Why does anyone think that a private company like steemit inc will tell anyone what they are doing?
Do they not understand that a private company does what is in the best interest of those private owners?
I was hoping that they would be more open... until I discovered that it was a completely private company. Now I don't expect them to do anything but enrich themselves. Isn't that what private companies do?
https://www.steem.center/index.php?title=Steemit,_Inc
In order to do so, private companies must create and mantain some product/service at a high enough level of quality that people still want to pay for it.
They have a right to keep secrets, and we have the right to continually demand them to change that policy. Else, a more competent company will obsolete them in the long term.
@Ned is on the bed with a "fitness" model now! Leave him alone please!
and he's probably practicing guitar for his upcoming cover song!
Haha, really, oh, yes, maybe that is true.
Totally agree!
https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/lino-raises-20-million-to-create-decentralized-video-community-with-blockchain-300593332.html
That is a lot of dough.
Your insults repertoire is awfully close to marky's one
took the words from my mouth. Thanks Bernie!
Awesome !popcorn
Awesome. Upvoted.
Thanks @berniesanders

I wish i had the SP to tell them the same thing without fear of repercussions... but i'll shout from the corner..
YEAH... WHAT HE SAID!!!
I think it is despicable that dlive are leaving Steem as well as poaching Steem's users to a different chain, no less after so many Steemit users have put their time and effort into helping dlive become what it is today.
Ultimately, I think the decision to leave is only going to do harm to dlive and not Steem itself. A network effect can only be achieved if projects like Dlive build on Steem - the first and most established blockchain for social media applications. Taking the dapp else where is just fracturing value.
If it's not built on Steem then I can't support, or use it. As such, I will no longer be a dlive'er. Disappointing yes, but as others have pointed out, Steem is much much bigger than dlive.
Good luck, good bye, and good riddance.
For the first time in 2 years I fully agree with you. Well said. There's always the option to bridge rather than exploit and "poach" and it's evident which route the Dlive team has taken.
They can't poach anything more if you disconnect them from your authorized apps via steemconnect.
Posted using Partiko Android
How do I disconnect my Steem from my Dlive using Steem Connect? Right now, I have not logged into Dlive in a few weeks. So, I have to manually log in. So, do I need to change my posting keys or what?
sigh...
They left due to they failed at streaming, still unable to code their way out of a paper bag they instruct you to download OBS to stream with dlive. @vimm is a streaming project released with real developers, you are correct Steemit is better off!
I liked Dlive over Dtube but yeah, too bad Dlive is leaving. Yeah, this may hurt Dlive in the long run, more so than they know. Hard to say exactly but I feel like I can't trust Dlive now. That is how I feel, subjectively. I like Bitchute.
Yea, totally agree.
Well said!
But steem is full of people like you who are selfish and only a fraction of the people who live on the planet are like that which is why it didn't grow. Most people are kind and have compassion. This is what happens when people like you get voted by arrogant selfish idiots. Influencers who are like them killig growth and getting rich while doing it.
Yeah, that may be true.
Pretty terrible to take a Steemit delegation to build a business to leave the Steem ecosystem...
The Steem blockchain is much bigger than Dlive. It was fun while it lasted indeed...but soon we will have a replacement. Its really sad because this will confuse many who don't see the bigger picture. #STEEM
Agreed, DLive wasn't even that essential to the Steem ecosystem lately; and there's not even a need for a replacement since DTube already has a live streaming function. More free SP to be delegated to new projects, at least. :)
But I cannot watch my older Dtube videos because those videos didn't make enough money and you may see the videos but they will not load as they were removed after a few weeks or so it seems.
Yep. None of the die-hard Dtube guys seem to want to address this.
Thank you for commenting. Upvoted. You can see that @tombstone downvoted my comments related to this, which pulled down my reputation from 55 to 51 this week which discourage me, a filmmaker, a photographer, a world traveler, to post on Steemit, to talk about things, to be honest about issues, like you said.
we can look at VIMM
I literally spoke with the dev of that 2 days ago....they have something legit going on there....
They also have designed it so you can join with or without an account on our blockchain...opening the door for us to bring new users into our community.
What is VIMM?
Something with way more class than dlive. Too bad for dLive that 50,000 pissed of steem bloggers and streamers are about to decimate the traitor bandits in the news ;)
I hear second hand their discord channel has gone bonkers and that the death threats have already started up in earnest.
To removed your content from dLive before they steal your personal property and move it to another chain database without your consent, log in and edit/delete each one. They are not offering a way currently to wholesale remove your content. You can also use third party tools to download the content, and a post is going to be made by a concerned user in a community I am in, which will outline the way to find the direct storage link and download your prior content using tools like VLC player.
No one is preventing you from removing your content.
I was in there with you, and I feel @chiren is really approachable. Future is bright for vimm
#fuckdlive Now I see what they did. Haha they pulled the same shit that vuilly project did in the past. Just in reverse.... So why not be honest and say in the post that you guys ran an ICO?
Remember Vice and their steem airdrop?
Agreed, with or without Dlive doens't really matter for Steem blockchain, many are using them not because they love vlogging or streaming, they use DLive only for the rewards I guess. DTube and vimm are already there for live streaming too.
@vimm is a pretty good Dlive alternative
DTube is already a replacement alternative with DTV...
Not with that 25% cut it's not.
I can't watch my older Dtube videos.
VIMM is here and I think @dtube has incorporated live-streaming as well. That should ease us a bit. Brands come and go, but the major ideas stick behind. Even though they started live streaming on the blockchain, they won't be the last to do so, and won't even be the greatest to do so anymore.
Dtube has problems.
Can not agree more!
Dtube offers streaming so I feel the Steem Blockchain is going to be nothing but stronger my good friend. This platform has a chance to change the world and break down barriers, they are takin ga big risk stepping away. Steemit will live on =)
I can't load my older Dtube videos.
Me 2. So what?
Well said @thejohalfiles !! :)
I think it's great news/warning for steem stakeholders, to see and hear community requests. If they think bid-bots, self-votes, angry whales will attract investors but not dapps (if they don't support them enough), well we'll see how it goes. I think every dApp should pursue its goals and look for better solutions. I don't think dLive is happy with this change but we can't blame the team at all.
And I think they already brought enough value/people compared to the delegation they had. Other dApps should think about moving to steem (this money generating blockchain with zero transaction fees and almost instant transactions.) However we are witnessing to opposite why? maybe our stakeholders have a short vision, unfortunately.
We already have a handful of successful dApps around here, if we lose a few more...
I tried dLive once, my upload speed wasn't efficient enough and I know dTube is going to support live streaming. Or someone else can work on a live streaming dApp on steem but if nothing is going to change, results won't change either.
One flag would've been enough buddy, thanks for approving my point.
"if they don't support them enough" you say, do you really think a million SP delegation isn't enough? lol.
It's a good thing they're gone then, more attention for DTUBE, and more SP for new DAPPS as my friend @guyfawkes4-20 said
I wasn't talking about steemit inc's delegation but other ones who invests in bid-bots and try to get some ROI by self-votes. From my point of view dApps will save this blockchain. Everyone cheering about SMTs, what's SMT? a tool for dApps, hivemind? niche networks... That's the only future for steem, or there will always be alternative chains.
Steem is lucky to be a frontier but that's all, it was even luckier when koreans decided to pump it.
Yeah what if dTube decides to move to another chain, will you support them as you do today?
edit, sorry I forgot to answer your question properly, yes apparently a million SP wasn't enough for them to stay here.
Yeah, @wa7 is clearly part of the Lino team, and after reading this whole post, with their free 100 "Points," this just seems like a cheap attempt to steal away Steemians.
You can always grab those points and use them to buy Steem. ;)
Huh, yeah, if they would have any value. :)
It will certainly be interesting to see how Lino tokens will stack up among all the other coins out there. I'm sure it will have some value, here's hoping I can get 1 Steem for it. :P
I say, their chances of succeeding (becoming at least one of the top 50 tokens) are not that big. All the crypto people are already using Steem to post their clips on the blockchain, why migrate to another platform.
And even if Steemians go on their video platform, they will probably just end up taking the price, and buy back into Steem, or even fiat.
Their only chance is to hit the Asian market.
Lol they aren't worth anything
How can a small group of devs "steal" anyone? You're free to come and go as you please, as are they.
Of course, everybody's free to come and go as they please. DLive surely got bought to move, and probably for a substantial sum of money since they were already doing great over here. Why not use both chains? Because they are part of the Lino team.
They can leave but, the way they leave seems just like a slap in the face to the blockchain that put them on the map. Why give away 100 Points? Because you need new users and are trying to acquire/steal them from here.
But yeah, maybe you are right, a handful of devs can't steal away Steemians to a new testnet platform because, with all its problems, Steem is still the best social-media blockchain out there, and the industry standard at the moment. Thus, who would leave it for something non-existent? :)
I'm willing to test the waters on this new endeavor of theirs. I am nor ever was exclusive to @DLive or #STEEM, but I believe that both will be successful on their own accounts. I'm a streamer, and I still do the occasional stream on twitch, of course it's not primarily for the money or that twitch has all the bells and whistles, it's to show my audience there are better alternatives like DLive. I also blog, and a majority of my posts are oriented towards life as a streamer, so even after DLive pulls out and blows their wad in a younger, prettier, less experienced partner, I'll still be blogging on @Steempeak.
Its because they can be on both chains, it's not as if they have cooties all of a sudden and the community will forever shun them, even though the thoughtform of "Steem loyalty" cannot fathom such alternatives.
Two Million In Delegations from Steemit. Yep. Theft of users and using us to fund their startup, intentionally planning to then go take 20 Million from the next hotty.
In marriages, it's not called "theft", it's called domestic abuse and adultry.
I know we dont always agree, but I have to say you pretty well nailed it this time.
Even a broken clock ;)
Wheres the covenant or in this case the contract? In reality, Theft doesn't exist when you talk about delegation, what is delegated isn't taken, it was given.
You don't look old enough to have been in business or tech very long, and the knife in your mouth also tells me some basic kindergarten knife safety lessons were overlooked, but google "collusion" and "The story of the Trojan Horse", thanks for your input though. ;)
Yeah, it is pretty bad, like a divorce.
Yes, they can be on both chains but, obviously, they don't want that since they are leaving Steem for good, their delegation is already removed.
But that's good; if they don't want us, it's better that they are leaving now than, leaving when we're huge. :D
Hmm, but I was talking about us users being on both chains..
Sorry, my bad in that case.
Yeah, users can use both chains, it is already happening, that's not such a huge issue, necessarily.
But, people didn't just used DLive for their service but, for the chain they were operating on. A lot of people became video content creators after the launch of DTube, and eventually DLive because they saw an opportunity in doing so since they could've got rewarded in Steem.
People were also able to stream on Twitch it's same as DLive, probably better as technology but, many of them never did it since it's not Steem.
DLive developed their tech here, with the resources we provided, and are now leaving with to another chain, and that is the reason people are mad.
Yep, some people don't understand the principle of cause-and-effect. This decision will follow their business and negatively affect their reputation permanently. ¯\ _(ツ) _/¯ Seems like a bad idea in the long term.
I can only imagine what incredible things you and Yaba would achieve with that kind of delegation.
∞§∞Truth∞§∞
This was also my thoughts. Some other questions I am asking myself is: What will happen with all the SP and why not simply create a platform on both chains.
Probably a big chunk of that SP will now go to DTube because there will be an increasing demand for curation on their DApp since all the DLive users will migrate over there.
They could've easily kept their service for both chains but, since they are leaving, it is obvious that they got bought.
In the german discord I also learned about @vimm another video platform here on steemit.
I imagine they will use their capital to give power to their new project in lino.
Their sp is pennies compared to Lino's ICO
:o
Amen.
How can they "take" a delegation?
That’s easy. People delegated steem power to them to help them with their dapp, I mean Capp. They used that delegation to earn steem which they are pocketing and taking to another blockchain.
Trevon is spot on. I have had dms with their main dev he didn't even understand what a peer was and why it's important to host files in different locations Clive centralize live.
All those precious pennies that are going to be "cashed" out. O gawd, save the pennies!
Can you prove that Lino is centralized?
Pennies compared to lino's ico and I doubt it covered server costs.
I am sick to my stomach to hear this. I feel like the Steem community is what helped Dlive become who you are today and now you are abandoning us.
And you are leaving on the exact day that HF20 takes effect that would have allowed dlive,with its 2 million SP, to create alot of "instant" accounts
I will however wish you luck with your future endeavors, as I don't like negativity and wish no person/persons ill will
Looks like a perfect time to look into VIMM!
“Steem holders to continuously upvote their own content and other creators who specifically support their content.“ interesting seeing that you paid to be upvoted by a bot
I thought it was weird anyway having dlive and dtube when dtube now supports live streaming. We dont need both.
Competition is always good to have.
Yeah, Steem put them on the map, and they are now leaving with what seems to be a slap in the face. My guess is they got bought; they probably got a % in the business, that being the main reason they are leaving since they already had it more than good over here.
This is the first time I've ever used my rented SP to flag a post 100%. Mainly because I usually prefer to take the route of rewarding excellent content/comments instead and stay out of inefficient conflicts.
But this post is simply unacceptable without you being more honest. You think you can put on a false front and give a few flippant reasons why you're moving to Lino, without telling the full truth. The community is not that stupid. Did you or did you not plan this for an extended amount of time, secretly and behind the scenes?
If not, you have a lot of explaining to do. Did Steemit, Inc. know of your plans? Did you really think this decision would not greatly enrage people, especially making it suddenly out of nowhere? Do you really not think this will permanently damage your company's reputation because of the lack of integrity you have displayed?
If you wanted to do this the right way and really felt you needed a different blockchain for your project, you would have written a genuine announcement about this a long time ago. But you wanted to keep getting free handouts from STEEM as long as possible, didn't you?
Answer all these questions in full detail and complete honesty and I'd retract my flag as well as edit this comment.
[self-upvoted for visibility.]
P.S. Note that I don't support the aggressive way some are choosing to handle this. Death threats are never acceptable. We can handle this in a more civil manner.
But we still expect answers if you want things to even somewhat resolve when it comes to your relationship to the STEEM community. I write this comment with a loving intent and not out of anger. We're waiting for the fuller truth of this situation to emerge.
Seems like it was well planned for many months. Masterpiece!
No answers that will be truthful will be shared by these scum bags...
not sober forgive the grammar
I also doubt they will own up to things. I just wanted to write a post to express the reasons why I chose to flag, but also to give the opportunity for them to explain themselves if they really have the cojones.
Thanks for the info, I'm not too in the loop when it comes to DLive. Actually, I was planning on making my first video over there soon, but now it'll be on @vimm or somewhere else.
A dApp that is centralized & a streaming program that can't stream without actual streaming software.... does @lino realize they picked up our trash?
I feel like these are all issues that are currently being addressed by the current hardfork and the next one planned in March. No hate here, but I think there will be a lot of people that were supporting DLive not following you guys to another chain. Best of luck and hope that grass stays greener for you, but I dumped all the other projects I had any stake in like EOS because I think you'll find, like I did, that often they have serious problems of their own to work out.
Peace Out Dlive. I’m sticking with Steem.
And your self upvote .... KINDA proves their point.
Doesnt matter, never saw you browsing streams or upvoting anyone else in the DLive community outside of your circle of friends anyways.
Only reason I know who you are is your self upvotes and bitconnect.
Self upvote is just using your own stake. It's the ultimate freedom. It's called promoting yourself when you feel you have something important to say. Majority of people self upvote for visibility in comments. This gives people the ability to empower themselves. You can't do this on other platforms your view will be lost forever. Steem is the ultimate empower tool. The power of capitalism.
I can't say I entirely disagree with you, but I've always seen self-upvotes as a form of approving of your own content, rather than taking your perspective out of the equation and allowing others to be the judge. In other words, I see self-upvoting as another form of masturbation, you're only making yourself feel good, and some people are ok with that.
Yes you approve your own content. But it doesn't make you immune. Other stake holders can upvote and downvote you at the same time. Others will judge you also. You have to understand that this place is a win-win-win platform. It's in everyone's best interest that others also win. How many go crazy on self upvote? Less than 1%. So you judge the majority on the minority of actions.
It doesn't take a lot of rotten apples to spoil the whole bunch, not that those few speak about all others for whatever reason you brought that up and you must be naive if you think that abusing the system in such a way is a win win win, at what point do you consider that it's not, "win win win, capitalism".
Tell me, what happened with haijin? All those people that downvoted, and so much for rewarding others while getting rewarded in return, muh value for oneself! Larf all the way to the bank, curation rewards are for those who don't understand the "smarts" it takes to use one's own freedom, echo echo, is that whatsup still singing, your own stake, what right does anyone have to judge you! What was the other snip, you're all jealous I'm promoting myself (except there's a dusty promote button that you've never even known existed, it seems); but I digress, all these disgruntled people clearly don't have any idea about win win win and don't really care about what's in their best interest, and each others.
I love self voting.
I'm guessing you're trying to yank my chain or are waiting on you VP to reach 100% so you can exemplify exactly how much you love it.
I love your diplomatic positive answers no matter what these trolls throw at you! New fan here sir.

Thank you.
Does this flag prove a point?
Fuck off mate... You're behaving like a child
That I am right and you are polishing brass on the titanic? At least, that is what I got from it.
I only first heard of you when you invested in UA, and what I heard from prominent and tenured steemians was that you are pretty much platform garbage with a long history of self absorption, chasing scams and possibly even crimes. Some of those allegations even substantiated by your very own post?

But yeah, your flag on a post outing a truth about you, is proof of no brain.
That he's right, especially so.
This right here.
Whammy! Hahhaha
LOL
copy that
LMFAO AND THEN HE DOWNVOTES YOU.
Yeah, it's time for LINO. :P
Hurry up and leave, lol.
AYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
WHATUP PLAYA
Not y'alls payouts, that's for sure!
I’m more upset that they are leaving the Steem community for the sake of their dapp surviving instead of sticking around and trying to help steem survive. I thought dlive was a steem thing.
Now we are getting to the root of the issue...
it is a lie, they could be on EOS, Steemit, Lino and more they are deceitful lying scum bags.
Crusade ALLL The Blockchains!
zFunny
I really don't understand what the purpose is, or why it is necessary
especially when STEEM is going to be having the major updates it will be having relatively soon. It seems that you all want to build a great platform, but fracturing and potentially destroying the entire userbase doesn't really seem like a great idea. Why was this decision made and announced not even a week before implementing without any input from the community? That's distressing, and "#InDLiveWeTrust" isn't really an answer, blind faith is a bad idea.
Why not have DLive work cross-chain and work with both or more chains?
I am not sure that I will continue to use the service if it is off STEEM entirely.
I don't even know what LINO is, it may be better for DLive, but at least give people time to understand. 5 days is not nearly enough. I thought transparency was the rule of law at Dlive, and am severely disappointed.
Well it seems that they don't feel they've been rewarded good enough, the fact that you and many others feel this sense of loyalty where it's either or is the real shame since this could be a real win win.
Lino is an Erc20 token that raised over 20 million in their ICO. I recognized the connection earlier this year and always kind of expected this to be honest.
Speaking of ERC20, why didn't DLive just make their own token using that and do 1 person = 1 vote token payouts without the 7 day limit to reward evergreen content? That's kinda what I was expecting to happen. And when SMTs finally launch they could migrate over to that, you know, like some dapps are doing already.
Just do a Steemhunt
Even hypothetically if people want to migrate to LINO for Dlive, powering down takes months, so there's going to be a huge gap in when people are going to be able to full run on LINO, and I honestly doubt many people will do a full switch because of DLive exclusively.
There is no need to transfer your tokens... The reward system isnt weighted on holding the coins.
I will still likely be on both to be honest.
From what I understand it's more about liquid capital, and having that tied to one platform for a long time makes the switch period awkward.
I don't understand why they just don't operate on both chains or at least leave the steem end up during a bit of time. It's too soon with no real discussion
I guess maybe... I myself am not a crypto guy so I don't want to use more than one if I don't have to... I think I'd be quicker to leave steem than to not follow dlive... Is everyone going to start streaming with dtube now?
Does dtube have streaming?
Yep see the "Go Live" link on the left side bar
Technically speaking: Yes
https://steemit.com/dtube/@heimindanger/dtube-0-8-the-grand-upgrade-is-finally-here-dtv-dtalk-vip-system-etc
Functionally speaking: Not really
Hey the voice of reason shows up! Always a pleasure to see your level headed comments!
Obviously dlive has to do what they think is best, I personally think they will find other chains have their own issues. I don't know about lino, but if it has people, it has issues.
Do you have any wise insights for us? ;p
dtube streaming is mega garbage you might get an upvote though lol
vimm, as eric said
Of the people that stick around probably vimm... They might even get the delegation now
Oh, well thanks for bringing us in on it Eric! Lol
Was only speculation. Wasn't something I wanted to share.
I was only half serious Eric!
