“A Better Experience than YouTube, but What ads?”

Shawn V.

What ads? I'm reading all these reviews about there's too many ads on Dailymotion, has people not heard about using an "ADBLOCK"? I haven't seen any ads in years. I am however aware of how bad the ads are on Dailymotion lol, which is why i said to use an adblock. That's all you have to do. As for Dailymotion in general, the entire site has changed for the worse over the years. But there's some good points which is why i always come back and stay using this site. I will covered the good and bad. The Good: Quicker and easier way to get verified badge over YouTube. More easy to navigate and browse the site, doesn't feel sluggish, don't need a phone number to access all features, faster uploading system over YouTube, faster optimizing videos over YouTube. Most Important, the Copyright System is way less strict compared to YouTube, you can upload more content which doesn't get flagged. The Bad: Comments are gone, recently banners were removed, feature videos is gone, the entire user channel design has changed and it looks awful and too plain looking, no categories section, the new front page looks awful, can't see your subscribers, there's no following videos tab on the front page, no dark mode. I uploaded 3 photos, you can see clearly that the entire website front and user channel is terrible looking. The Bottom line: Despite all the features being removed from Dailymotion, Overall the experience dealing with Dailymotion is better. If you're seeing ads just use an AdBlock, problem solved. I do hope most of the features come back to Dailymotion and more importantly they need to completely redesign the user channel design, its way too ugly and stupid looking now. Now sure what the staff is thinking. Why would you remove banners from a user channel? I would choose Dailymotion over YouTube for the simple fact that the copyright system is way better and less hassle signing up to the site and uploading speed is faster.

“Fraudulent site”

It claims to show advanced episodes when in fact it would be showing previous ones! It also makes you waste time with the ads (where their money comes from, I assume) and then all the buffering! Not recommended at all!

I'm amazed at all the negative reviews. I've watched hours of TV dramas and docs on here that I can't find anywhere else - or certainly not for free. Other than some (but not all) having a couple of minutes of ads at the start and maybe half way through - just like TV does - my experience has been very positive. The quality isn't always 100% and there's sometimes a slight sound lag but if you've ever tried watching RTE player then you'll find DM a big improvement! As I said, maybe I've just been lucky but to me it's a great resource for programmes I've missed and aren't available to me on catch up.

I love dailymotion.com because there are many videos of varying kinds that cater to many different kinds of tastes.

Registration is not that difficult and the site also has the ability to allow one to upload videos.

The site also has a parental filter ti filter out adult content from the eyes of children.

This is an excellent alternative I would think to youtube.com

Although the visuals are not precisely synchronized with the sound, the sound quality is not distorted. The sound is more important than the visuals. Keep the sound and sacrifice some of the visuals,... It's the Music... Brilliant thank you.
