Dtube needs Dtube stars, I just did a video about this with my non profit page. Dtube keeps trying to collect and import YouTubers, rather than build their consistently-posting base into bigger and better vloggers that will use their position to advertise for the platform. YouTubers are cool, but they aren't bringing their followings with them, so giving them huge payouts is kind of a waste of SP delegation, IMHO. People are going to be drawn to apps like Dtube because of their novelty. That means people will want to see new faces, new content, cool content, diverse content, and right now, Dtube looks like an endless selfie echo chamber of people talking about Crypto. The reason for this is because everyone, including myself is chasing a Dtube upvote. As soon as they restructure how they reward their content creators, they will start to receive more diverse content. Until then, it will just be people rah-rahing about how great Steemit and Dtube are, and YouTubers trying to awkwardly talk about subjects they know nothing about, also in search of that ever elusive dtube upvote.

I have noticed in my circle of friends at least, a huge drop-off in people posting. Is this because the price of Steem is down? Morale is low? Dtube inconsistency is pissing people off?  People are just naturally a bit twitchy? My feed is looking pretty sad as of late, and it makes me sad.

Definitely will be interesting to see how all this is going to shake out.  More big time users means less reward pool for everyone but more adoption means price rise..........soo.......... maybe its a wash. 

I don't think youtube is sustainable anymore.

To the question in your title, my Magic 8-Ball says:<blockquote>Do not count on it</blockquote><hr>*Hi! I'm a bot, and this answer was posted automatically. Check [this post out](https://steemit.com/introduceyourself/@magic8ball/introducing-the-magic-8-ball-bot) for more information.*

I think this is very interesting how some large Youtubers are starting to come over to Steemit.

I definitely think some will come here and soak up some nice rewards and then move on. 

Another thing I see probably happening is someone comes over, they are the hot new thing, get a lot of attention, make a lot of money, and then as soon as the next Youtuber comes on they are forgotten about a little bit and stop posting and move on.

One piece of advice I would give the Steemit community or something I personally would like to see happen is don't just upvote and reward someone just because they are a big Youtuber or a known person. They should have to work on this platform just like everyone else.

Not to talk shit about anyone but just to give an example, I like the hodgetwins, I follow them on Youtube and thought it was cool when they came over here. They have also made some great content on here. That said I see them post a meme which is just a screenshot of someone else's meme they took on their phone. That earns like $50 and then you have long time Steemit users posting quality longform content making $1, it's just not right nor is it good for Steemit.

If a big Youtuber or popular person posts good content by all means rewards them but don't 100% upvote everything that xyz youtuber puts up just because of who they are, that's just stupid. 

I get why this happens, part of it is because we get paid as curators so if I know furiouspetes stuff is gonna make money and I upvote it I earn more money. I think that's part of it. I think another part is hey I wanna make friends with them and maybe they'll upvote me and the last part I think is hey it's cool they are on here, let's help them make a bunch of moeny so they stay on here and tell other Youtubers about it.

At the end of the day they should be treated and judged the same way as everyone else, don't 100% upvote everthing a big Youtuber puts out just because they are a big Youtuber, it's not good for Steemit in the longrun

Are there any pretty girl conspiracy theorist anarchists?
