communism
Lol they only listen to themselves
I miss MySpace. Tom let me post almost anything
Why not hide the likes too then?
I think the real reason was that they don’t want you to have the best time possible, they want you to spend a long time on the site. People often engage more of their attention with things that make them angry than with things that make them happy. If youtube can get you to watch a video that frustrates you, negativity bias will cause you to pay more attention and want to hear more.
Why would youtube help you find the correct tutorial right away when they can make you spend hours wallowing through the wrong ones, watching ads all the time?
There’s nobody notice not even youtubers YouTube did not delete dislikes only the youtuber see how many dislike they got on a video every time I scroll on a video I see no dislikes but I already have a few Unfair delete Dislikes!
if they’re so worried abt too many dislikes, just make a better video 😂
What’s worse is the creator sees how much people dislike the video but watch it anyway and leave feeling burned. EVERY channel has a least-popular video and the channel knows which one(s) but the users don’t. The embarrassment is GREATER for the creator knowing people are watching something they won’t like.
They didn’t listen to you this time I guess
Yes truly agree this dislikes helped us to see good video or bad video clickbait video, or dangerous misinformation. But now they are now more easier to spread. This hurt everyone. Because if theres truly bad video or dangerous misinformation we can’t dislike anymore. Youtube said that like and comments are good ways to see if its good video or not. but in reallity they are booted simply with bots saying it worked and thanks. worst youtube update ever now how we prevent scams and bad people. Because not all creators are good, They are trying to hurt platform,spread scams and extremely dangerous misinformations and so much more. I hate this youtube update
I cannot gauge a video on it’s likes or dislikes, because I haven’t watched the video yet. Just because a video has higher dislike than like count it will not make me go to another video instantly like most folks. Sure, I will scroll down to the comments to see why the ratio is the way it is, but then I make my own “educated” decision on the content myself. Honestly, and I hate to really say this but I am going to… Not everyone’s intelligence level is the same as everyone else’s, correct? Yes, 100% correct. Since I don’t know the intelligence level of the people who liked or disliked the video how am I supposed to know if I like or dislike the video based on this ratio? I know why this does happen however… Most people are like cattle and they simply follow the heard. Too many people these days simply jumping on the band wagon that is more full without actually knowing what they jumping in to. All they know is that most people didn’t like it, so guess what??? They now don’t like it either. That’s stupid. Please don’t be a part of this and decide for yourself. I have seen plenty of videos that were very informative, but just because the video creator wasn’t very cordial, or didn’t speak English very well, now they dislike the video. And that my friends is total bullshit. Can we not base the information we receive from a video as the like or dislike, and not by the way it was even presented? Not everyone is fucking Steven Spielberg. I do think that YouTube should bring the dislike counter back, even though it wasn’t very helpful, it at least showed me who was intelligent and who was not.
I can’t believe this video still has no dislikes, I guess it’s just perfect!
Now I’ll just grunt like a caveman towards my screen when I dislike something. That’ll show ‘em.
Just give the creators the ability to choose whether or not the dislike count is displayed. There, that’s the moderate solution.
They should let creators choose whether or not it’s visible on their videos!!!!!!
Targeted dislikes ? How about the uploads that share viruses that have no dislikes and people fall for it.
Sometimes, it’s necessary to accept that certain aspects of a platform or service have changed, and we may not be able to control them and we move on.
You are right on man. YouTube needs to put the thumbs down back on so people make their own decision on a video.
Removing the dislike from the videos make me not want to watch videos on youTube at all. You comments were great.
