YouTube may be #1 right now, but give dTube some time to grow and develop and hopefully someday soon, we will surpass YouTube. 🙏

Actually it depends on what your wanting from the platforms.... I prefer to post on DTube for the sake of anti censorship and crypto rewards but it’s not a perfect system by any means.
So currently DTube has a much higher probability of earning from your creations for particularly new creators as on YouTube you need a massive following to make monetization but at the same time many types of content are over looked on DTube as it is curation based rather then view count based earnings.
DTube struggles with video playability after the post pays out and videos are not playable inside of Steemit posts yet YouTube videos stay forever and can be played within the post they are linked.
There is nearly no censorship or copyright issues with DTube yet on YouTube even the music included for free use by GoPro in their Quik app has copyrighted aspects and just mentioning certain words will have your video demonetized.
Yet when consuming media I am always on the go and if I can find a YouTube link in a post vs a DTube it means I can download the video for offline playback which is not possible for DTube on mobile, furthermore if it is a podcast type show I can listen to it with my screen locked saving battery with YouTube while still working.
So honestly I would say YouTube is far ahead of DTube in function but far behind on inspiring and supporting creators.
