lmfao turns out you can just get an extension to show youtube dislikes again

chrome firefox

Why are so many people against the dislike button disappering, it’s just a button.

A tutorial with a lot of dislikes is probably outdated, fake, or even a scam. Dislikes can’t be deleted or disabled by the video uploader like comments can.

When a corporation (like for example, Nintendo) releases a video announcing a new product, no one bats an eye. But if that video has a 1 to 10 like to dislike ratio (like Nintendo’s announcement video for a $49.99 subscription that offers nothing you can’t get on the internet, at a higher quality, for free), that makes them look really bad. And those dislikes being public let viewers know audience opinion at a glance, without having to dig through Reddit or Twitter or whatever (Comments aren’t good for that bc they can be deleted/disabled, and the ones that the uploader likes tend to go to the top.)

This change isn’t being made to help Youtubers or viewers. They are doing this to keep corporations happy.

corporations dont like it when the public disliking them is public
