Dailymotion is a joke of a video website. For those who want to escape the melting pot known as YouTube, this is not the place. Here is my personal experience.First, the ads. If you think ads from YouTube are annoying, wait until you see the ads on this rigged platform. I wish I made this up. At the beginning of every video, you have to watch an unskippable 30 second advertisement before the video begins. Every minute you watch, there's always an unskippable 15 or 30 second ad waiting for you the next minute. What makes this situation worse is that there's no indication of ads in the video. No little yellow squares, no message on the bottom right corner, nothing. And if you try to download an ad blocker to watch these videos, the website kicks you out. So far, this experience makes YouTube easily look ad-free and user-friendly in comparison.Second, the content. I've seen several videos in poor quality. Not only that, but many of these videos are direct copies from other videos you can easily find on YouTube. And on that website, they're in BETTER QUALITY.Third, the horrible performance this website runs on. When you somehow deal with the barrage of ads in the video you watch once you're in the middle of the video, THE WEBSITE RELOADS ITSELF. Then you are forced to start all over, watching the unskippable 30 second ad AGAIN, along with every single ad you had to suffer through in the process. This is the website's way of laughing at you.To summarize this, Dailymotion is run by a bunch of money-hungry hyenas who don't care about its own users. Dailymotion, you will fall one day. Just like Google Plus, just like Quiz Up. Both Dailymotion and YouTube are run by hyenas, but sadly, the better experience is YouTube. At least THAT website allows you to watch ad-free videos with a certain extension. Unless you want to have intense guilt and a sense of betrayal, stay away from this excuse of a video website known as Dailymotion.
