While it&#8217;s not quite removing dislikes altogether, the number of dislikes a video has will no longer appear next to the <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/youtube-testing-feature-hide-dislikes-select-videos\/\">dislike button on YouTube<\/a>. However, viewers are still able to freely like and dislike videos on Youtube to their liking, and content creators can still view the number of dislikes on their own to help provide feedback to the YouTubers. Though YouTube cites the well-being of content creators and &#8220;targeted dislike campaigns,&#8221; it&#8217;s unclear what prompted this strange decision.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"related-single\"><strong>RELATED: <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/kelsey-impicciche-youtube-the-sims-4-community-interview\/\">Kelsey Impicciche Talks YouTube and The Sims Community<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Both YouTubers and their viewers are sharing their thoughts in regards to the decision to remove the number of views. Overall, content creators such as MYSTIC7 are explaining how the dislike ratio helps the community hold itself accountable and make informed decisions on what&#8217;s good content and what&#8217;s not.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"320\" height=\"320\" frameborder=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Jack_Septic_Eye\/status\/1376967212750213121?s=20\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s Play <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/jakesepticeye-raises-big-money-charity\/\">YouTuber Jacksepticeye<\/a> points out an interesting note. No longer showing the number of dislikes on a video won&#8217;t expose content that is objectively bad and harmful, such as scams. This could also impact clickbait, as the community will downvote videos that don&#8217;t deliver the content the title of the video might imply. In the gaming corner of YouTube, this will make it harder for users looking for walkthroughs for specific quests, and more difficult to field out if the explanation is well-done or not.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"320\" height=\"320\" frameborder=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MYSTIC7\/status\/1376950017202679810\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>This isn&#8217;t the first time that YouTube has attempted to change the dislike button on its platform either. A couple of years ago, YouTube attempted to remove it completely to curb misuse of it, a similar reason to YouTube&#8217;s current decision to remove the number of views shown publicly. Back then, it was due to users spamming the dislike button, and now, it might\u00a0be YouTube&#8217;s way of combating &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/pepe-le-pew-space-jam-2-canceled\/\">cancel culture<\/a>.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"320\" height=\"320\" frameborder=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AngryJoeShow\/status\/1376959427547389953\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>On his daily show, Philip DeFranco joked that this is so <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/youtube-rewind-2019-pewdiepie\/\">the YouTube Rewind won&#8217;t display the sheer number of dislikes<\/a> due to its yearly backlash, but also says that showing dislikes, similar to how Reddit operates, while not perfect, is how the community polices itself. Some other smaller content creators are hoping that this function will be optional because it&#8217;s unapparent who requested this change.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"320\" height=\"320\" frameborder=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/LSMark_\/status\/1376972195642101763\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/pewdiewpie-cocomelon-removal-reaction\/\">YouTube has since responded<\/a> to these tweets, thanking users for their feedback while it implements this experimental phase of the dislike button. It also says that users should be relying on the report button and not the dislike button for scams, but this doesn&#8217;t combat clickbait or unuseful videos.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"next-single\">MORE: <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/comparing-twitch-youtube-streaming-livestreaming-content-creation\/\">Comparing Twitch Streaming to YouTube<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"syndicated-attribution\"><figure class= \\\"wp-block-image alignnone \\\"><img src= \\\"http:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/test\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/logo2-2.png\\\" alt=\\\"IT\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2 java\u88dc\u7fd2 \u70ba\u5927\u5bb6\u914d\u5c0d\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2,IT freelance, \u79c1\u4eba\u8001\u5e2b, PHP\u88dc\u7fd2,CSS\u88dc\u7fd2,XML,Java\u88dc\u7fd2,MySQL\u88dc\u7fd2,graphic design\u88dc\u7fd2,\u4e2d\u5c0f\u5b78ICT\u88dc\u7fd2,\u4e00\u5c0d\u4e00\u79c1\u4eba\u88dc\u7fd2\u548cFreelance\u81ea\u7531\u5de5\u4f5c\u914d\u5c0d\u3002\\\"\/><figcaption>\u7acb\u523b\u8a3b\u518a\u53ca\u5831\u540d\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2\u8ab2\u7a0b\u5427!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<\/br>Find A Teacher Form:\r\n<\/br>https:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/1vREBnX5n262umf4wU5U2pyTwvk9O-JrAgblA-wH9GFQ\/viewform?edit_requested=true#responses\r\n<\/br><\/br>Email:\r\n<\/br>public1989two@gmail.com<br><br><br><br><br><br><br>\r\n<a href=www.itsec.hk style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itsec.hk<\/a><br>\r\n<a href=\\\"www.itsec.vip\\\" style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itsec.vip<\/a><br>\r\n<a href=\\\"www.itseceu.uk\\\" style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itseceu.uk<\/a><br><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Big and small content creators speak out against YouTube&#8217;s decision to remove the number of dislikes on videos, saying it won&#8217;t stop poor content.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":624,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"slim_seo":{"title":"YouTube Dislike Button Removal Gets a Hugely Negative Response from Content Creators - ITTeacherITFreelance.hk","description":"Big and small content creators speak out against YouTube's decision to remove the number of dislikes on videos, saying it won't stop poor content."},"footnotes":""},"categories":[607],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/228129"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/624"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=228129"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/228129\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":228130,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/228129\/revisions\/228130"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=228129"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=228129"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=228129"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
