There are several benefits of having a video app that is decentralized:
1.Censorship resistance: A decentralized video app cannot be censored or shut down by any central authority or government. This means that content creators have the freedom to express themselves without worrying about their content being taken down or censored.
2.Data privacy: Decentralized video apps protect the privacy of their users by not collecting any personal data. This means that users have control over their data and can decide who to share it with.
3.Transparency: Decentralized video apps are built on blockchain technology, which provides a high level of transparency. This means that all transactions and activities are recorded on a public ledger, which can be audited by anyone.
4.Community-driven: Decentralized video apps are often community-driven, which means that users have a say in how the platform is run and how it evolves over time. This fosters a sense of ownership and collaboration among users.
