Indeed an excellent oportunity for d.tube I think. And an excellent aim of youtube of shooting themselves in the foot...
I have been irritated more and more by youtube's behaviour trying to control all kinds of content creators. But lately they seem to increase the self harm.
In trying to become a utopia for a certain type of person, they turn themselves into the heaven and hell joke.
All the fun people will be (forced) somewhere else and in the end few people will have any reason to visit youtube...
At the moment they are still the de facto monopoly in town, the big disadvantage of starting on new platforms is fragmentation.
In the end I think this could help platforms like steemit and d.tube grow a lot! So I am actually not sad at all, but very annoyed.
Oh and resteemed!
