RE: Hive Broadcasting Network: Time For Hive To Up Its Game
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
In addition to YouTube, Twitch is also a successful streaming platform. The Hive blockchain has a huge potential in this. Nowadays mainly 3Speak. Because, at least what I heard about it so far, there is no censorship on it. It can be a successful alternative. Especially for people, who share controversial content.
But I also heard that the videos are getting deleted over time. Maybe this was on DTube, which was also on the Hive blockchain in the past (nowadays DTube is on the Avalon blockchain). Or on DLive, which was also on the Hive blockchain in the past (nowadays DLive is on the Lino blockchain).
I do not know. But there is real potential in alternative streaming and video platforms. Especially seeing the censorship system on YouTube/Twitch.
There's VIMM which is connected to Hive, I've been on it before and it seems good, although I haven't streamed in a while so haven't tested out streaming.
I agree though, with all of the controversy surrounding Twitch atm, alternative streaming services should be at the forefront to attract some big personalities.
VIMM is good for streaming but I dont think it records at all. I dont know if Twitch does that but if so, then VIMM is lagging on that end.

It does, I used to stream on Twitch and get it to record the streams and then I was able to edit and cut it down to upload it afterward.
It's a shame VIMM doesn't have the ability to do that, if it did it could be a good contender.
When it comes to video, be careful with the censorship idea.
Hive is text only, so that is censorship resistant. However, video, audio, and images are hosted on centralized servers. This is what SpkNetwork is looking to solve. For the time being, if there is content that is targeted by the hosting company (like AWS) it can be removed.
