✔️ Clean, sleek platform

✔️ Hype buttons (LOVE that positivity)

I have had the privilege of being enrolled into the Cinnamon Early Access program & man, I love it! What a fun & exciting platform that they have created.

Here's the deal, I know what we're all thinking.

“Who's got the balls to compete against YouTube?”

Cinnamon. That's who.

And I could NOT be more excited to support them! Finally, a video platform that I get PAID to be a part of without all the annoying ads! Why oh why has it taken us this long to realize creators' worth?!

A few thoughts on my first day of use...

1. It's a SUPER easy platform to navigate.
2. I LOVE the Search Bar at the top! Legit my favorite thing that I can't wait for @coil to have!
3. I love the fact that you can personalize the color scheme of your profile & you've got *4200* characters to talk about yourself!
4. They've got an awesome sidebar where you can easily check out new creators. Plus the “newsfeed” is super easy to navigate, just like the Coil feed.

A few problems I've run into..

(FYI, I have reached out to Cinnamon about all of these and they've either fixed them ALREADY within 24 hours or they've assured me they're working on it! #winning)

1. I have had a few problems with uploading videos. Unless I turn my hotspot on it wouldn't upload- which none of my other video platforms have caused me problems. Not sure if this is just a problem with my wifi or not, but just in case this happens to you- you're not alone.
2. The video uploading process is pretty quick, but the last video I tried to upload has been stuck in the “processing” step for over a day now and I'm not sure what's happening. I assume it's a glitch??
3. At first there were a few little things like my profile picture was squished, the description had a bug in it, and you couldn't add two word tags. BUT they got all of this fixed and now you can use two word tags, your profile photo can be any size and the descriptions are working flawlessly!
4. I wish – as does @aaa that it had a comment section and/or the ability to be able to DM other users directly on the platform! (lowkey, @Coil, I wish we could DM here as well!) Not sure if this is in the works or not yet, but I'd love to know if this will ever be an option or not?

I am SO excited to switch my video hosting to Cinnamon, it's a very promising and exciting platform. I encourage you to hang in there during the growth process, it's truly going to change the video game! Who else is pumped?!

Tweet me how you think Cinnamon is going to change the game! @riley_quin
