My thoughts on the DLIVE and Tron announcement
Justin Sun held an "interesting" live-stream about the acquisition of DLIVE, and I commented actually more than I thought on twitter.
My Thoughts
We (dlive) currently have a few million active users
rofl, listening to @justinsuntron talking about @OfficialDLive "we currently have a few million active users" dude, did you check the site? there are not even 1000 in all channels combined. if you need someone to do some proper DD (=less lying), hire me

(he wanted to give away crypto...)
not knowing how dlive and treasure chests work doesn't look too promising either :D
DLIVE is so decentralized, they even ask for your government ID

Final Thoughts
Live-streaming won't work decentralized for a long, but recordings of it can certainly work now. However, if there is no way to subscribe/donate via DAI and cutting the shitcoin, I can not imagine any wide adoption. It's simply too complex for the target audience.
Do you follow DLIVE or Tron? What are your thoughts?
Sun does have the reputation of not being totally truthful and a bit unethical (dare I saw a scammer). He is all about promotion so there is that but you are right, Dlive isnt exactly killing it out there.
An understatement :)

Currently I have tried DTube, but it seems that the videos uploaded a few months ago are no longer visible. I always talked about Dlive and Lbry, but I haven't tried them yet. Do you have any advice to give?
I tried lbry... It's okay I guess. Decentralization comes at a price though. I like bittubers.com the most at the moment
Thanks @ash for your advice
I guess we're doing alright by comparison
Specially since dlive went down to 1,472,433
...And we haven't even started our marketing plans.
A bunch of peeps and I went to visit various Tron Discords...they were dead as hell. I'm sure 20M people use that chain.
Yup, as expected
Now we know why steemit supported the 4 week power down. I thought there was something shifty going on.

Oof, you're right
