In one of the statements, Paul Muret, vice president of display, video and analytics, reveals a drastic change that will mostly affect small YouTuber's in the quote below

"The challenges we faced in 2017 have helped us make tough but necessary changes in 2018."
Channels at YouTube will need to have at least 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 hours of watch time within the past year to be eligible for ads. Source


In the coming days, weeks and months, it wouldn't be surprising to see a massive exodus of content creators from youtube to d.tube. Let's face it! No one would like to work without earning a decent reward. We can't wait for dtube's mobile android app to be launched! See latest developments made to the dtube app version 0.6.

Thank you for reading my blog!

I started a week ago:)
Already transferred 12 videos from Youtube to Dtube .killing/closing my YT Chanel @
and made Promo video for Dtube
Here it is if you like to see it.

Great to know that you started your migration a week ago, @olegw. As a small player who has never really earned on youtube, I am calling out to both big and small content creators there to join d.tube. I'll go check out that video of yours. Thanks for the link and your support.

Feel free to use it in your promotion :)

Well, I wouldn't know why they are shooting themselves in the foot. One would have thought that by now youtube will be looking for ways to keep content creators and not to open the door for them to leave. Anyway, now that the gap has been created, youtube will pay a costly price,(losing them to dtube) in my opinion.

You are doing great job @maryfavour for promoting dtube to potential dtube content creators...

Thank you, @hms818! I appreciate it.

Yep... I got the email this morning about my channel. It really makes me sad because I've always been able to monetize my videos. Looks like DTube will be my new home.

The news is not welcomed well by many, @xhodan. So, let Dtube be your new home. Why not?

Add me to the list. The minute I received the email I deleted my videos and closed my youtube channel. Any future videos of mine are going to dtube!

I think due to change of policy by youtube many small youtubers will come to other platform like dtube. The policy change will make hard for small youtubers who are posting original content but not getting eniugh views.

I don't know why youtube change their policy but it will make difficult for new youtubers to make money. And in few years Youtube will face strong competition from other sites like dtube.

It's a matter of time, I think dtube will break the ground soon. It's really improving and doing great

It's a matter of time, I think dtube will break the ground soon

I can't wait for this to happen, @teslim. Steem on!

I have also gone to do this on some youtube channels i used to watch. lol.

Great @turpsy! It's good to know that you are doing the same marketing job. Cheers!

I have not been on dtube, I’m new to steemit. Does my Steem Power apply to dtube the same as steemit?

I’ve never been a blogger or a Vlogger and I’m trying to develop my niche here on steemit because I believe this has huge potential to take off. I’m wondering if I should get on dtube...

Also, I bought STEEM at $6 and $3, roughly.. when is this rocket ship to the moon set to launch!?

@greenroom, thank you for your comments and welcome to steemit

Does my steam power apply to the tube the same as steemit?

My response to your question would be that YouTube is an app that is built on the steem blockchain. So steemit and dtube basically have the same reward pool. Whatever it is that you post on youtube, it appears on steemit and you're able to earn rewards (steem / steem dollars). Please note: 25% of your pay out would be deducted and that goes to dtube.
Just do your best to develop your niche and join existing communities. It will pay off at the end of the day.

So if you bought steem tokens at $6 and now they are selling for $3, my response to that will be just to HOLD/HODL them as steem power. For now, don't bother about when the rocket ship is going to moonAs a newbie, I think you should focus on the value you are providing for the community. That is what will be rewarded. Cheers.

Oh, @maryfavour, I have thoughts on this! I have plenty of thoughts:
https://steemit.com/youtube/@gamingstation/new-youtube-monetization-requirements-are-they-fair-or-plain-bullshit

Summing it up, this is really bad for new users and once again helps the YouTube top celebrities. YouTube is going big boys club from now on, until it stops seeing new talent.

Really bad move on them.

I read your post and saw how you really poured out your heart. This decision that youtube has made to demonitize new players and allow the big boys club will hunt them pretty soon. Keep steeming!

Absolutely. YouTube needs some true competition to deliver some honest, fair improvements, not what they are doing right now. We can only hope DTube and others will do the trick.

Keep up the great work, @maryfavour.
