Allow me to upload your interview safely via Viewly !!! Let's decentralize our uploaded videos.

Find out more about the revolutionary Viewly project (behind it is steem witness @furion) here:

all social networking sites and messaging services! lol

yep, every user activity should be paid in the future ;)

that would be selfish, don't you t hink...

Hey @delvamaynardreid think about it like this. We pay media platforms like facebook by allowing them to mine our personal information and sell it to third party companies. We also pay them by generating the site traffic that makes the platform profitable. Further, through using the platform we expose ourselves to their paid advertising. This makes facebook a lot of money, and we will never see a dime of it directly from the platform. Should we get paid for putting our information on the internet, or should a centralized company be allowed to take the information for free and sell for a profit? Should we get paid for generating the traffic that makes a platform successful, or should we allow a company to continue fueling itself via our time and thoughts for free? Is it selfish to see the value that social media platforms have created and think, the value doesn't lie in the company behind it, but in the people who use it? I don't think that is selfish at all. In fact, I think it makes us inherently more likely to contribute productively to our community and be better people. I hope you understand what I mean in this post and can see where I'm coming from! Peace.

applauded
for your great comment

Agreed 100%. We are the ones who should be getting a share. Not the platform. Like they say...we ARE the product to FB, TW and so on.

Great observation...

yes i believe we should get pay and you are right these companies are selfish hope some understand what you said and its importance its like you are everywhere and dont even know

Here, here as long as steemit doesn't become yet another platform for celebrities to sell more crap ;) I'm with you.

This touched the my little anarchist heart!

totally right my brother!

not only to youtube.... instagram, facebook and so on....

agreed on decentralizing the world and No to YouTube, But there is still a very long long way for EOS to compete with Ethereum and it even could be impossible.
if he just put his focus on Steem we can see it around $10 or even more.

if he just put his focus on Steem we can see it around $10 or even more.

That is only the profit perspective.

and a very short term one at that.

fascinating! i agree w/ sans youtube.

ps jeff when is your rap video coming out?

scotty_ETH_donation_pub_addy

say no to any social media platform that does not:
put the control in its users
prevent censorship
conduct its business transparently
have any real value besides memes and games
Glitch

I agree...

you have a good point but hmmmmmm

wow, i have been waiting for a bold statement and action like this, great.

What an awesome way to deal with videos by decentralizing their uploading processes! Thanks a bunch for sharing this knowledge with us @leondani! All for one and one for all!

Namaste :)

@eric-boucher you make a lot of good contributions yourself... keep pushing what can be done!

Thanks a bunch, all for one and one for all! Namaste :)

I have over 2700 Steem Power and I created this campaign which I hope will help improve comments on Steemit:

I will upvote every constructive comment I get on Steemit with 5-10 cents in order to create a WIN-WIN-WIN.

You win by having me upvote and follow you, I win by having great comments and more followers and above all Steemit wins by getting better content.

Read about the rules and conditions here.

Please respond here or on my post with any feedback you have, thanks!

I feel the best way to build a presence on Steemit is to create a loyal sub-community of followers who support each other with upvotes, resteems and constructive dialogue. The Minnow Support Project had the right idea but it is now too big for any one person to benefit past a certain point.

I really feel the way to success here is for your community to be between 20 and 30 people to help each other build Steem Power. Guys like Greg Mannarino did it right by bringing his Lions to Steemit.

I've been doing something similar with my fans on Periscope, and it has worked to a degree. But it is slow and eventually worth your time.

Interesting, what do you talk about on Periscope and why are you trying to build a following there?

I'd like to read more about your comment! Care to improve the quality of your comment by linking to how Greg Mannarino "brougth his Lions to Steemit"?

I upvote high quality comments ;)

I talk geopolitics mostly. You can see that on my steemit feed, where I cross-post and enhance my paid work for other sites.

That is my bailiwick and the core of my writing. I write for Seeking Alpha (finance), Russia Insider (politics) and Halsey News (politics/culture). My schtick, for lack of a better term, is merging astute political analysis with investment advice to assist people becoming self-sufficient and, by extension, happier.

I have begun moving them into the cryptos, gold and anarcho-capitalism as well.

Periscope was and is a way to build a following to drive people to my work and build a business for my subscription services. but, I have found that both it and Twitter are engaged in the worst kind of censorship and that following grew to a point and was then crushed.

So, I'll be moving to you tube live in the near future as yet another stop-gap until a blockchain based streaming solution presents itself to properly interact and engage my audience.

There is a real hunger for good, honest and objective political commentary that simply needs better tools to help them find an audience. Twitter was supposed to be that but they've become so hostile to it that it's offensive.

Greg Mannarino is a financial analyst with strong you tube following who brought them to Steemit and now he posts here and manages his community, that he calls 'his Lions' on Steemit. It's brilliant for him and them.

He makes them money with good financial analysis AND the content they produce on Steemit.

It's the model I intend to use to build my community, but it's starting from much more humble beginnings.

Interesting! I always like to interact with writers, we always take time and care about how we present our thoughts in the written form. Followed you by the way.

How does one go about investing in anarcho-capitalism other then doing it through crypto projects?

You have further piqued my interest regarding Greg, what is his Twitter handle?

I don't follow greg on Twitter... you should be able to find him with a simple search. in fact I try to use it as little as possible anymore. If they don't want me than I don't want to use them. :)

You invest as an anarcho-capitalist by removing yourself as much as possible from the system supported by government looting. In my case that's building a small hobby farm that produces the lion's share of my family's food.

It means having a pool of real savings, a la Austrian Economics, in gold, silver, property that is then leveraged into counter-party risked based investments. It means homeschooling your children (investing in their mental and emotional well-being).... etc.

i agree.
i'm following you.

@saifshourov2380 Appreciate your follow, I already upvoted, followed and responded to many users. I hope you can be the next one! ;)

Following you now...

I love Viewly! :D

The article and the interview were great but this news on Viewly is even better! Thanks @liondoni!

Viewly is exactly what I was hoping this community would build. But, at this point, I see legacy social media as a tool to build better awareness of our content, Steem and the coming anarcho revolution. Once people see there is something other than creeping corporate fascism as a solution they will embrace it with everything they have.

For now, YouTube is a tool which I shamelessly use to further me at Google's expense.

Interesting project, viewly. Thats one really big fight ahead, competing with YouTube and such. Best of luck. :)

Great to hear about this new platform! I heard there may be a decentralized audio platform as well. Does anyone have any news on it? As a musician, I am concerned that SoundCloud will disappear!

Thanks! Great information!

You're welcome. Another one is token.fm . Let us know what you think of both. Other musicians would like to know...

Can't wait to try it. I am curious how long it will take to implement the interface. We shall see!

This is my first time using stem and learning about everything its a lot to take in.......

Decentralized ISPs... coming to a neighborhood near you soon.

yes we need mesh network ISP services that let you "Mine" by hosting signals to let people use ur wifi or something, and u can just put up lil solar powered wifi routeres up like gotenna devices and the BRCK wifi backup generator we need blockchain wifi in africa

wifi mesh network where we mix hardware with the blockchain to allow anyone to get a device to implant it somewhere and it will have solar panels and a battery and it can also just be plugged in at peoples houses, like powerful wifi routers,in mesh networks, or ontop of buildings (theres a local wifi mesh network program to give free wifi to low income neighborhoods hre in san diego and in othe cities, and we need to build on all these wifi mesh network programs...we just ave to fill in the gaps! connect the wifi dots! and soon the entire planet will be saturated with wifi and then we will eventually use LIFI and Light signals to cut back on the ELectrosmog wifi pollution in the air as covering the planet with wifi may not be healthy but we will be switching to healthir frequencies, because lets be honest, wifi is not unhealthy, they can use it to hurt ypu if theyre trying to but you can sit in wifi all your life u wonyt get cancer, thats a myth, it doesnt slowly cook your fucking brain, if that were true, you could put a piece of meat on your phone...go ahead, put a piece of meat on yopur phone and turn on a yutuibe video or make a phone call, u wont see the meat cooking, maybe the heat from the BATTERY might warm it up but peopel shoul stop talking about celphones goving you canver its never been proven

"There still aren't any good explanations for how mobile phones could cause cancer. The radiofrequency electromagnetic radiation they transmit and receive is very weak. This radiation does not have enough energy to damage DNA, and cannot directly cause cancer."

so anyway yes decentralzid ISPs and more wifi will be an INCRDIBLE resource for humanity! as useful as the OCEAN! a completely free wifi for everyone, maybe just enough for sending text and smal images, maybe just enough to make a few steemit posts a day, and then you pay to be able tow atch youtube videos, that could work at first but eventually i want even youtube videos to be free i want it all free everyone should have free access to the internet and the world can then start making ALOT more money its like getting everyon access to ROads and Autombiles! it makes the entiore WORLD more productive and EVERYONE wins! ior like saying we should charge peopel for elecricity and make moe money IR we can charge LESS and let EVERYONE use elecrtricity nd then jjust Guve it to those countries that hve never been able to aford it, and thet will get electricitya nd be able to do O much more work now! how can we NOt see the internet as the saem as electricity?!? the deveoping worlds peoples need it more than anyone! and they will not forget who helped tem! lets just help people help thjemslves and get a blockchgain ISP up and running that alows ANYONE to connect to a mesh network using volunteer cord funded networks all around the planet so no matter how far you live frm our niodes we just rind a way to connect to you maybe we can raise money to laucnh our own satelites with spaceX which is VERY doable and these satelites can proviode a 3g or 4g signal and ANY smartphone can pick it up so no speicla hardware required! we would all have the ability to connect to these low earth orbit sateites to get all opf our internet needs nio maytyr where we are in the world! if a system like that was put up immiedtaly overnight it would be over capapcity haha if everyone all of the suidden had a free wifi signal OR could connect from their smartphones to a 4g signal, eveyron would be on it! well if it was wifi yeah everyone would see it and conect to it automaticaly!

wow imagine that! satelites tjat transmit free wifi to everyone on earth! imagine how much that could increase the global GDP!

Outernet is upposed to b something LIKE that! U can get free internet from sateites using a $200 piece of hardware caled Dreamcatcher and or "Lantrn" and yeayh check it all ouyt!

we HAVE to find the people and raise the money here on stee,mit to try and make our own ISP we find the best peopel, and we find peopel who might be just as smart but will ork for less hah we fine new up and comers see hwich ones could hwelp us make a blockchain ISP mesh network system OR who could he;p us laucnh those low earth orbit global Internet satelites ....and if its posible to create a wifi signal rthat every device on arth could connect to or multiple satelites so many that no mater where you are you could connect top one of our satelites ...and how much that woudl all cost etc, but i believe we coudl raise the money after showing just how much easier a global free wifi would make our lives easier...it would make EVERYONES lives better...global GDP could DOUBLE if EVERYONE had fre global wifi esoecialy places like chian or noprth korea which would have to install wifi jammers everywhere hahah if u can get wifiu from spavce the government can cenor stuff

Great idea in concept but the RF noise floor for wifi signals is already terrible. Running a global mesh network isn't going to help matters. Ad hoc and mesh type networks are inherently inefficient and require transmitting the data many more times than an engineered wireless network with centralized nodes.

Decentralized at the local level might work but the telecom industry owns the back bone of the internet currently so there's not anyway around them... yet.

Look up Wireless Internet Service Providers. I think you'll be surprised how many companies are already positioned to break the monopoly.
