This only hurts the users. Trying to find a how-to video or a guide, the dislike button was a way to find out of the guide actually worked, if you went to a how-to video and it was disliked, then it was probably not worth watching.

its all nice on rice posted:Who TF actually clicks the (dis)like buttons? I like to contribute to society and give people a helpful hint if the video is indeed awful. But now I’m only helping the creator of the video by clicking dislike. That’s if they even care about that information.

If I want to share information about a video I prefer to chat with people in the comments section.

every view should automatically convert into a dislike unless you click the like button

there's nothing greater than hate watching some terrible video overloaded with dislikes and they forgot to turn the comments off, these social media sites sure seem to hate interacting with other people socially

they could have at least made it so you can't rate and see ratings for videos until an ad has been successfully viewed until it is skippable not allowing people to see ratings on videos is a huge and very dangerous moral hazard

The only time I ever even thought about likes/dislikes was when Ellen made her bullshit apology that everyone hated after everyone found out she was godawful to work for.

Sometime in the last 4-5 years I got very detached from the internet as a whole, I don't think I've watched a video on youtube in quite a while and I've never seen it as a place to "find content" or whatever, it was just a video hosting site like waffleimages was for images. I wouldn't miss it if they got rid of the whole site It never needed anything except volume control and fullscreen buttons, I never engaged with likes/dislikes/channels/subscribing/etc in any fashion

I have a hard time getting engaged with video media / anything with sound so I don’t really use YouTube beyond tutorials. But being able to subscribe to a channel and / or make a favorite list for when I wanna learn to hang a picture with a laser level to avoid Grovering my dwelling is p useful

Ah, that was the one. Blizzard literally had youtube remove dislikes on that video.

If anything, I find I watch youtube more these days as I enjoy the video essay format as a quick way of learning about or considering a topic. I never really like or dislike videos though, and usually if a video is to show me how to do something I will check the comments to see if anyone feels it is not a good tutorial. I guess dislikes could be a faster way of determining that.
