Christopher Rolas 163 Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 It's actually a bad idea, many times you don't need to watch the whole video to know the quality of it and that's thanks to the dislike count.

You can but others than the owner of the video won't get to see the dislikes.

Why not just remove it? I'm pretty sure it's because of the algorithm. Whenever you dislike a video, youtube becomes less likely to show you videos similar to that one.

Meruk Holland 2,400 Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 I actually think this is ultimately going to be a positive thing. The dislike ratio informs new viewers how they should feel about the video before even watching it. And the dislike button is still used by the algorithm to tailor your own suggested videos. Which is really great if for some reason you start getting suggested videos that you find annoying or infuriating. There is also the phenomenon where people will mass dislike videos not because of the quality of the video, but because of controversial topics it may touch on, like LGBT topics. If the dislike count isn't shown, it will discourage people's "public" disagreement. They'll have to write a comment, and other people will have to scroll down and maybe see it.

Fanta 5,019 Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 This is self serving, like someone else said, to major accounts and corporations and whatever they put out. Dislike buttons are the least toxic way of expressing your disagreement online without verbally harassing an individual. Not everyone is happy and in agreement all the time, bad idea.

Bella Goth 1,149 Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 i mean.. why just not remove the like dislike button entirely? or just show the video is liked or disliked, dont show both number. its like "i dont take critisism" behavior Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RudraCNG 15,511 Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 How is that a good thing????? Dislike ratio is f*cking useful in order to see if a tutorial is valid or a "scam". It's also a good way to discredit megacorps when they announce something abusive to the consumer (i'm thinking on the nintendo switch online upgrade). Don't tell me some of you actually believe youtube's official pr statement Sure, they do it for the "small channels"... as if they didn't implemented years ago a feature that allows you to remove the like/dislike ratio Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
