It's a good video sharing website but it's still way worse than youtube for example by many params in speed in video quality and all other things like that entirely and absolutely anyway, I do want to make all that possible within that risk. Thanks for that!

Flaws
April 12, 2020

The sight has many frustrating issues with things such as episodes are not being shown in order according to series, looking for particular episodes by manually entering does not come up and entering the information is no good because words are not able to be spaced. The same ad plays over and over again and will not let you see video, sometimes the sound is too slow for the video, definitely not worth paying for this

Don't
November 21, 2019

After 2 terminations with no reason, done by "our algorithms," never again. And, because my educational content had static frames, they displayed them at low resolution.
This company sucks. Completely.

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.

Extremely annoying. Far too many advertisements. I tried watching a 50 minute video and probably had to watch 25 ads. Are you kidding me?

5 minute ads!
May 25, 2019

Every four minutes I'm getting a five minute advertorial about some city in America. Serious... the program I am trying to watch is on twenty mins long and it's taking over an hour! Can you tell me why this has just started happening?

I started using DailyMotion in 2016. It seemed to have all the videos YouTube kept removing. Now they have changed the layout where the annoying "Browse More Videos" comes up at the bottom of the screen instead of the videos in my playlist at the top of the screen.

I HATE this new layout. Not only are they including videos that I DO NOT wish to watch but they are also including PORN featuring topless women and lesbians licking each other. NO THANKS!

I ONLY want to see MY playlists at the top of the screen so I can choose to watch the full list if I choose without having to stop each video and access another one I want to watch from my list! Think I'll be sticking with TubiTV, Pluto and Vudu. Seriously tired of DM!

It's official. I DELETED my DM account today and I refuse to look back. They refuse to go back to their other layout. They think putting stars over the topless women's breasts is enough. And they keep including the same story about R. Kelly from early March which I DO NOT care to watch.

I NO LONGER CARE that DM is the only free streaming site that has Mama's Family, Twilight Zone and Hitchcock available for free. It's not enough to keep me as a user. Bye Bye DailyMotion! Never going back to that site for ANY reason. Tubi and Vudu are my new goto streaming sites. Good riddance to bad rubbish. Never turning back.

Worthless
March 28, 2019

I have searched and found a dailymotion contact email address as:
*******@dailymotion.com.

I emailed this email address three times but no reply.

It appears this person must be just another French nincompoop.

Star rating should be less than zero.

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

Patience required!
March 18, 2019

Not with the agro! Advertisements pop up every few minutes, only I get blank black boxes so no idea what's being advertised. After several ads it just cuts off and rewinds back to the beginning. Aagh! And since I'm watching a series, the episodes are jumbled out of order along with other shows, so you are continuously scrolling to find a particular episode. Who programmed it this insane way? Yes its free, but I give up!

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.

Too many Ads
February 15, 2019

There are 1-2 minute ads every 5-8 minutes. So many that you can't even follow what's going on in the video

Terrible experience
November 10, 2018

Tried watching a video. Every 3-4 minutes, ads pop up. After the third SET of ads, my video froze completely. No one wants to be bombarded with ads. I go to work and check my emails. I must first delete about a dozen junk emails that have gotten past my "Junk" box. Then I have to clean out another 20 from Junk. I will have to delete at least a dozen more before the end of my work day. While deleting these emails, a bad mannered telemarketer calls me and tries to sell me something. If I check my personal email on my phone; more junk that I have to kill. I have to clean out the office fax machine each morning because a pile of ads are waiting when I get in. I get home and physical junk mail is in my mailbox. My phone rings and it is an automated telemarketer calling my cell phone. And then there are texts from "Facebook friends" that I don't know or want to know. After a day of constant bombardment, I decide to watch a video. I can't because of SO MANY ads. Really!
