The ads are unpredictable and atrocious. Video ads and those banner ads. Truly unwatchable. I hope this site and all ad hungry sites go belly up. I don't care if I have to go back to 2001 internet.

Daily Motion is a Scam
November 23, 2016

Stay away from DailyMotion, they make you partner with them only to refuse to pay you when your views start going up, they also do not reply to you when you send them a message, their customer services department is a joke, I believe they are a bunch of indians trying to scam the world, do not do anything with them they are a fraud.

Dailmotion Suicide
April 14, 2017

DM CEO Saada claims in the last 2 years he has cleaned up Dailymotion site. One look at DM and you can see the site has not changed. We can see videos that have been posted up to 3 years ago.
Even with parental controls on, We can see garbage videos with nudity. Not even quality nudity, more splashed around. With bad titles.
Saada and Dailymotion claims they want to build a quality and family site.
They failed. Plus with the Hack of 85 million accounts. One thing they say is well good thing DM does not keep financial data. LIE, they have financial data on people who upload videos for profit. How can they pay them without financial data?
So complete lie on company to cover themselves
Inaddition to all that. Dailymotion has continued to copyright infringement in Russia. When Russian Media tried to contact DM, they were ignored. Now DM is banned in Russia.

Dailymotion has a wonderful playlist for old episodes of Inhale Yoga. I used the playlist for a few years, but now the advertising has become too burdensome for my browser(s)--interrupting the feed (which oftentimes does not return), being FAR LOUDER than the video content, which I cannot easily change while in posture. I found the same playlist on youtube, so that is where I will be getting this content from now on.

Impossible to use: there are advertisement stopping the videos every few minutes. I remember a time when Dailymotion was useful. This time is over.

Missed opportunity
March 22, 2019

I uploaded some heavily modified memes and couldn't monetized a single one of them. I created a new channels and uploaded my daughters Barbie parody andnit got flagged as adult content. While you can reach support, they just copy and paste the same stuff that we all hate about YouTube. Also said my daughters video wasn't original. I beg to differ since I watched her move the dolls, do all the voice acting, script, everything from the ground up. This site is worthless

DAILY MOTION IS A GIGANTIC WASTE OF TIME... I thought they would be worth a shot as an alternative to Youtube... I opened up an account (easy enough)... yet when I spent all morning loading up video files that I personally produced on behalf of a huge restaurant client... out of no where, they "disabled my account" with zero explanation or reason. Well, Thanks to the French owners of Daily Motion for absolutely wasting this busy American TV producer's time and efforts... NEVER AGAIN... I will stay with American owned and managed Google / Youtube!

Useless!
November 18, 2019

Twice they have deactivated my account, because one of my uploaded videos breached their terms of use, but they didn't tell me which one, so as I don't have psycic powers to know which one to remove, I lose my account again. Im not sure if I ever want to bother again, don't think it's worth the hassle.

Navigating the site used to be a bit of a challenge but I was able to at least view all my subscriptions recent uploads in one page. But with the redesign they not only manged to make the site even less functional than it was before, they decided to remove a bunch of features. When I go to "For You" it shows me only a couple of videos that my subscriptions have uploaded and a bunch of video it thinks I want to watch. I can't figure out how to view ONLY my subscription uploads like in the past where they used to have a feed like page for that.

Dailymotion sucks for the following reasons:

1. There's really no comments under any video,
Because comments are by default disabled.
2. Dailymotion makes me feel like shi+.

TOO MANY ADVS, HANG ALL THE TIME. NOT USER FRIENDLY,

Stupid video sharing platform ever. A 10 minutes videos you will get around 20-30 repeatly advertising. Worst part of all after the advertising the video just paused. You need to go and press the resume videos.

You don't get a similar interest videos on the playlist. Watching an english video you will get a korean sex video on your playlist. Than get a japanese musci video.

This is the only site that uploads a New Zealand soap I watch, and now I am in Oz I can't use the local streaming sites. Except the episodes get reposted over and over with a new date. So you think you are watching the current episode, you sit through the annoying ad only to find it is the episode from 2 days ago. And every other dailymotion video for that date is the same. And the next day the same repost is updated to that date. And the Ads! Lets just say one 22 minute episode had 19 ads!

This seems to be the simplified version of the "most known site on this subject out there". The ads are really annoying. It has some interesting content, but at my opinion its not that worth it.

Basically like the title says I couldn't even watch 30 freaking seconds of a episode of Generator Rex because that website tried to load about 20 different ads all at once. Actually make that 6 seconds. DON'T GO USE DailyMotion ITS NOT WORTH IT.

Daily Motion inexplicably dropped the paid live feed of the 2016 ISU Synchronized Skating Junior World Challenge Cup just as the top five teams were about to begin their free skate, and has neither furnished a re-broadcast link to its paying customers nor offered even a partial refund. Absolutely no one would have paid to watch the competition if they were informed in advance that they couldn't watch the winners. If you were one of the hundreds of affected viewers, please consider signing this petition to ISU to suspend dealing with Daily Motion for a year or however long it takes to get its act together: https://www.change.org/p/ottavio-cinquanta-suspend-daily-motion-and-croskate-from-doing-business-with-isu-for-at-least-12-months
