@YouTube What would be a better idea is allow those that are Subbed to a channel to leave a like or dislike, guest and non-subs can't - Perhaps even allow creators to allow only those that are subbed to place comments... This should help smaller channels grow.

@gorgonzales_ @YouTube It amazes me how disillusioned they are with what the problems are on their platform. Youtube has literal porn and phishing scam ads but they think the dislike button is the issue.

@Chillixion @TheActMan_YT @YouTube by viewers you mean children? also there are many youtube videos that you usually want to avoid, like scam websites, virus videos etc. one of the first things I do when I look up a tutorial on fixing an obscure computer issue is looking at the dislikes.

@YouTube this is such a terrible idea tbh. as others have pointed out, it helps users avoid the genuinely bad videos. plus, I personally like to look at the likes vs dislikes on videos I enjoy (or despise) to see how well (or poorly) they're doing.

@sansartist1 @SuzyLuOfficial @YouTube A funny thing about clickbait channels is...if you fell for it and actually feel bruised/upset by it rather than just clicking away and finding something else, you might need to fix some priorities. I say what I say because I believe your grief is unnecessary.

@YouTube people are more likely to use dislikes in a constructive way than they are to organize a group of people to target a specific creator or community. the issue will always exist but its more important for people to be heard

@YouTube I think this is a good step to solve a specific problem, but as others have said I do worry about dislikes being hidden on genuinely bad or harmful content. Maybe if turning off public dislike counts was a setting rather than a mandate, that could work slightly better? Idkjat

@YouTube Dislikes help keep spam and trash off the recommended feeds. Being able to see the amount of dislikes helps identify that trash. For example; reuploads of other people's content is much easier to spot if the dislikes are high. This will do nothing but hurt creators.

@TheMistaGG @YouTube They add features that are not necessary instead of features that actually help the site.

@YouTube Dislikes are a good way to gauge the quality of a video. It tells us whether the vid’s ****, whether the tutorial actually works, or whether it’s a clickbait scam Good job promoting trash content

@YouTube If you really want to focus on targeted dislike campaigns, the best option I can think of would be to flag massive dislike spikes on usually well-received channels or videos and review them. However, that doesn't seem like one of the biggest problems on YT right now.
