I have only been to Dailymotion only a couple of times in my 10 years of using the Internet & probably you have a similar story too. We have all gone to YouTube for creating, publishing, and viewing videos. There are reasons for this.
1. Failed to Monetize
Dailymotion failed to monetize its content for itself and the creators. They could not implement proper ways to monetize the content that's been created and out of many reasons one of them is the policy or the tolerance to inappropriate content.
2. Google decides (most of) its competitor's fate
It is highly debated but we all know it. Google like any other monopoly doesn't want anybody else to enter the business & combats this increases the barrier of entry. There is a reason why no search is as popular as Google search
3. Untouched because of Inappropriate Content & Bad/Loosely implemented policies
If you have ever uploaded a video on YouTube you know how strict they can get with their copyright & policies. DailyMotion is the opposite. Like the polar opposite. I don't need to explain this.
4. Unable to capture the "creator" market
For any company, it needs its customers. For video sharing platforms like YouTube & Dailymotion, the customers are both Creators & the audience. Dailymotion could not bring creators because of bad monetization & lack of long term plans.
The type of inappropriate content only added to the problem.
When did you visit Dailymotion last? (I did today & don't plan to again)
New thread everyday for 30 days.
Tune in tomorrow.

National sports/games are decided at the time of Independence.
Hockey🏑 was the most popular game at that time. It is that sport that brought us respect, fame & popularity as a country. It is what put us on the map in terms of Sporting events.
India is also one of the countries where Hockey originated and it made(&still makes)sense to have a sport that is born in the country than to replace it with a sport which is from a different region.
"a basic assumption that cannot be deduced any further. Over two thousand years ago, Aristotle defined a first principle as “the first basis from which a thing is known.”"
What is it exactly?
It is basically thinking from the ground up. It is that piece of information that cannot be proven wrong or be falsified. They can be applied anywhere.
Generally, the shorter you frame a sentence, it loses nuance and context which is very specific. People are moving away from binary thinking to a more nuanced pattern. 280 characters are not enough for nuance.
2. Its blog size but not blog size at the same time
The format is very similar to that of a blog sized listicle but its more on point & more credible. (you can access their work just by clicking on their twitter handle)
