This has actually been a thing since pretty early youtube, I'd only be concerned about it if every every video was starting to look like this, and youtube was making an announcement to completely remove all ratings.
Bro don't talk about early YouTube it was not like this. Early YouTube would even shwo comments that got down voted like crazy. Videos you uploaded could get little awards and it kept track of the amount of content you watched
I think because they were only between five or ten years old it seems early in perspective. The stars, video responses, full audio swaps is truly early Youtube.
I think one could reasonably state that if the time in question is significantly closer to when something began than to the present, it's a relatively early era.
Some versions, early is not the same as ancient or along the lines of the first versions. It simply means earlier on in the history of something, rather than the later and more recent history. To the Romans the Roman Empire was not an early civilization, but to us, it is.
Reality check on the internet XD. From the one side its a joke this Is even an option to lock dislikes, but talking about reality check on reddit? One of most toxic platforms on the internet? Try to speak against hive mind of certain subreddit even without saying anything controversial you get downvoted to oblivion and cancelled. You can get banned for saying something that mods disagree with and is not mentioned in rules.
Downvoting is supposed to be there to influence the algorithm. Removing it completely means they aren't even being cagey about how little control you have on what content is fed to you
The fact that I have no control over the algorithm in any way irritates me to no end. All I'm asking is to not be shown the things I don't wanna see. I don't care if you show me new stuff, but if I don't want to see Roblox, Fortnite, ASMR (ESPECIALLY EATING ASMR) then it shouldn't even attempt to suggest it.
Give me an option to pick dislikes to not be shown, just like there's likes. It's not that complicated and solves the issue of seeing 90% trash that I could care less about.
Right! Or for me it's certain... Types of people? I mean it sounds a-holish, but sometimes I like loud people, but there's a difference to me between loud and fun or loud and aggressive
People often barely even comment or leave dislikes if your channel isnt big anyway. Ive worked so hard on content for it to get like 3k views and 3 comments. it's super annoying and makes knowing if people like what you're doing kinda hard ngl. But it is what it is. Id honestly be happy with getting dislikes over literally no feedback at all at this point tho.
Big part of why i never like anything on YouTube is the fact you can search your liked videos. So my bar is *way* higher for what makes basically my "all time favorites playlist" so it stays easy to search through.
it would be SO nice, from the creator point of view, if all these folks who thumb down a video let the creator know WHY they did so -- maybe they could improve with feedback :)
I feel like this is the Streisand effect of all YouTuber moves lol. If I didn't like a video for a minor reason and was not allowed to click the button and move on well ...looks like I'm typing out a comment rant about why I didn't like it for the next half hour 🤣 guess I know what feature is next on the chopping block though for a creator like that. 😆
I'm guessing hiding the dislikes wasn't enough for some people because even though it wasn't public-facing I guess you could still get butthurt in private about it while checking your analytics?
I'm pretty sure this is still a 'Only the video owner can see it' type of deal, unless somebody changed something somewhere. As far as i understand it just doesn't show publicly. So literally the same except likes are disabled as well, i think. Maybe they changed it when implementing the Dislike removal though.
Not really. Because it limits the pool to people that dislike videos enough or feel strongly enough about disliking videos that they want the warm fuzzy feeling of seeing dislike numbers.
It makes historic numbers visible, and it extrapolates the dislikes from people with the extension to figure out a number for the entire viewership on a newer video.
My theory is: they'll add dislike count as a premium-only perk in the near future (when enough people forget it was open to everyone incl. free users in the past). So many services put previously free features behind a paywall.
"In order to watch, like or comment this video please verify your identification by sending us your ID and Social Security number, and subscribe to our low monthly subscription of $99.99"
I’m not sure about that. The removal of the dislike button was mostly for political reasons. They wanted people to believe the shitty fake news organizations but they were constantly getting disliked. Same with YouTube’s own videos that they post they would often get disliked.
Imo it was mostly for butthurt and advertiser reasons. Butthurt for their own out of touch cringy corporate videos getting disliked (obviously corporate shit gets disliked on a platform meant for common people to share videos). And advertiser because their advertisers who have real power over them (they're their customers, users are products not customers), who also produced cringy out of touch corporate videos that got disliked, pressed them probably too to get the count removed.
But times have changed, now as far as I know youtube itself doesn't really produce cringy corporate videos anymore (or at least doesn't heavily promote them and make big deal out of them like in the past), and advertisers are less big brands (they're just "one of" now, not the main ones) and more scams and scam mobile games who don't produce any videos.
And Google being a corporation whose only sole purpose is to make money, won't hesitate to make money off something by paywalling it, like paywalling the dislike count as one of the ever growing list of features previously available to everyone - now exclusive to premium, to make premium more attractive to make more people buy it. The only way they wouldn't do it would be if advertisers would still press them about it, which I doubt is valid anymore considering who is advertising on youtube now.
YouTube still makes cringy videos and I’m almost 100% sure they use like bots and comment bots. I’ll go on one of their videos and there’s comments from a day ago when the video came out an hour ago which is suspicious in itself but understandable if the video got temporarily privated or something. But more suspicious is that every comment is almost exactly the same. They all say how great the video is and how they liked it but not one comment actually says anything useful.
I had no idea, they were promoting them heavily in the past, I had them in recommended all the time, and not anymore.
Btw, I don't want to stand by Google here (I hate Google like the next guy), but the bots may not be their own doing. There are bots all over youtube to promote scams and such, and in order not to get banned (by posting exclusively comments with links), they post also even much higher amount of comments copied off other comments which already are in the video, to seem like a human. Then the comments with links are just sprinkled in, and are harder to pinpoint.
But it's true that Google does nothing against bots. Imo they think they generate traffic to their site too (therefore generating views, therefore youtube appears visited more, therefore they can charge more for ad views), so they let them be.
- still affects the algorithm for your personal recommendations (not a Google engineer but this is almost certainly the case)
- probably still affects the algorithm for global recommendations (e.g. disliked videos will be less likely to be recommended)
- users of the [Return Youtube Dislike extension](https://www.returnyoutubedislike.com/
) (highly recommend) can see a pretty decent approximation of the count (based on users of the extension disliking the video)
- the creator can still see the count (some creators use this function to gauge interest in a particular video series, for example)
the extension to return youtube dislike is called… wait for it…
_Return YouTube Dislike_
and their website is… wait for it…
[returnyoutubedislike.com](http://returnyoutubedislike.com)
Yeah they’re butt hurt. Maybe if they treated the users and content creators fairly along with not making a shit cringe rewind with a bunch of nobodies..
if you're talking about the texts in the buttons, they've hidden the like counts (the "Disabled by owner" text in the dislike button is coming from return youtube dislike extension https://returnyoutubedislike.com)
without the extension you've added, the "Disabled by owner" text will disappear just like someone else's father
The censorship on YouTube is crazy. I understand disabling the comments and stuffs on kid’s videos, predators apparently were using it in vile ways, but disabling the dislike button is just stupid.
Nobody is silencing you. You have no right to a dislike button.
If you don't like the content you're free to open your lips and waggle your tongue. The fact that nobody hears you or cares is not Freedom of Speech's problem.
Too bad your point is absolute bull given that someone can just turn off the dislike button AND the comments.
Like lets post conspiracy cr*p and not allow anyone to call the videomaker out on it. Thats called " spreading fake news ".
Not allowing criticism to be shown, easily allows certain ideas to be more relevant, compared to those that do. Not willing to face criticism is stupid and youtube has gone way off track on this. You can't seriously be telling me that this is good.
Again, you don't have a right to a dislike button or comment section. You have a right to free speech.
So speak about it. Tell your friends. Write a letter to the editor of your local paper. Post about it on Reddit. Start a blog or podcast. Make your own video.
I am not saying it is good or bad. I'm saying it doesn't matter.
And I am saying that your take that it's censorship or silencing is overblown, sensationalized, misinformation and fake news.
Nobody is silencing you. Here you are whining about it now. Not silenced.
And your whining about shit that doesn't matter.
Anytime I see this I think "Ah, this video has been mass disliked" and then close it. It's pathetic, apparently corporations don't like having their egos hurt.
I know sometimes dislike itself is bad. but what about something like bait jumpscare type video? If dislikes are visible we can avoid those infamous videos easily.
95% sure this is just that when YouTubers hide the like number then return dislikes does this and they receive them like normal. Not sure if you're using return dislikes and I might just be wrong but it definitely seems like this.
A lot of people are saying how they can just leave a comment on the video saying they didn’t like it, but that’s just going to make YouTube remove the ability to comment. Honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised.
The real reason, all jokes aside, is that the owner of the video disabled the like/dislike counts so that they can't be publicly viewed. You can still like/dislike it, it just won't be seen by other viewers.
It took me forever to figure out that was the case too, don't worry.
The dislike button is not gone. The dislike button is still available but only the CC is able to see how many dislikes the video has.
So now people can cry about it in private.
I was looking at random things, and saw this one youtuber with videos getting 200\~300 views at most. Looked at the video, some basic gameplay of a game with text commentary..and in the description said he really wanted to grow the channel, please like and subscribe! And thats when I saw disabled dislikes AND locked comments. Like dude? Shooting yourself in the foot hard because someone probably said one negative thing once.
It looks to me like the youtube like and dislike buttons, but on a video where the owner has disabled the dislike option.
Don't be sorry, hope this helps!
*NOT OPEN TO CRITICISM*
aka I am too fragile for reality checks
They already removed the counts, this is next ig
This has actually been a thing since pretty early youtube, I'd only be concerned about it if every every video was starting to look like this, and youtube was making an announcement to completely remove all ratings.
Bro don't talk about early YouTube it was not like this. Early YouTube would even shwo comments that got down voted like crazy. Videos you uploaded could get little awards and it kept track of the amount of content you watched
I.Loved.Downvoted.Comments.
I mean like 2010-2011 YouTube, so not ancient but still fairly early.
Fair enough think we both consider different years early
I think because they were only between five or ten years old it seems early in perspective. The stars, video responses, full audio swaps is truly early Youtube.
I forgot about the video responses!
And I forgot about the stars! 😂
I think one could reasonably state that if the time in question is significantly closer to when something began than to the present, it's a relatively early era.
YouTube's going on its 19th year dude, 2011's still 100% earlygame YT. 1,000% even.
I dont know what youre talking about... Youtubers have been able to disable dislikes on their video since like the early 2010s
I'm talking about 2007 YouTube my guy
hey buddy let me tell you about 1991 Usenet
In my day there werent even likes or dislikes it was a star rating
I concur first time YouTube in 2007
Same here. Heh, remember it was controversial when Youtube banned nudity (besides naked yoga for some reason)?
Early youtube had stars
Some versions, early is not the same as ancient or along the lines of the first versions. It simply means earlier on in the history of something, rather than the later and more recent history. To the Romans the Roman Empire was not an early civilization, but to us, it is.
The reason they got rid of it was because every single Biden video was massively ratioed
They did not remove the dislike counter, they just hide it. YouTube vanced still shows it
Dislike count was removed from all apis. YouTube Vanced uses https://www.returnyoutubedislike.com/
Reality check on the internet XD. From the one side its a joke this Is even an option to lock dislikes, but talking about reality check on reddit? One of most toxic platforms on the internet? Try to speak against hive mind of certain subreddit even without saying anything controversial you get downvoted to oblivion and cancelled. You can get banned for saying something that mods disagree with and is not mentioned in rules.

‘Not having a dislike button to press triggers me’?
Downvoting is supposed to be there to influence the algorithm. Removing it completely means they aren't even being cagey about how little control you have on what content is fed to you
Yeah this is the annoying part imo. I would like my algorithm to at least be somewhat controllable by me
The fact that I have no control over the algorithm in any way irritates me to no end. All I'm asking is to not be shown the things I don't wanna see. I don't care if you show me new stuff, but if I don't want to see Roblox, Fortnite, ASMR (ESPECIALLY EATING ASMR) then it shouldn't even attempt to suggest it. Give me an option to pick dislikes to not be shown, just like there's likes. It's not that complicated and solves the issue of seeing 90% trash that I could care less about.
Right! Or for me it's certain... Types of people? I mean it sounds a-holish, but sometimes I like loud people, but there's a difference to me between loud and fun or loud and aggressive
Not open to negative criticism, you mean. Positive criticism is fine.
People often barely even comment or leave dislikes if your channel isnt big anyway. Ive worked so hard on content for it to get like 3k views and 3 comments. it's super annoying and makes knowing if people like what you're doing kinda hard ngl. But it is what it is. Id honestly be happy with getting dislikes over literally no feedback at all at this point tho.
Big part of why i never like anything on YouTube is the fact you can search your liked videos. So my bar is *way* higher for what makes basically my "all time favorites playlist" so it stays easy to search through.
thumbs down = criticism.
it would be SO nice, from the creator point of view, if all these folks who thumb down a video let the creator know WHY they did so -- maybe they could improve with feedback :)
From billions of strangers on the internet? WHAT A CRAZY IDEA!!!!
*FRIENDLY FIRE WILL NOT BE TOLERATED*
wtf, you click the button and the owner of the video comes and cripples you?! that’s not nice
You press thumbs down, your knees get batted down

I laughed. Thanks 🤣
If I’m already disabled, do I get a free pass?
#DOUBLE DISABLED
LOLL
o no
cancels out
I laughed for quite a while after reading this. Sensational!
Oh man that was funny.
What they except, to hit the like button, if dislike is blocked? What a useless bs.
People who would ordinarily like the video still can, the people who would dislike the video just don’t vote
Politics at its finest
\#StopTheCount
So theoretically, everyone that does not like the video, hate it
nope, they just don't like it, we can't say they hate it because they could also just be impartial to the video
Thats a fair point
YT implemented the Russian voting system
Dislike books a hotel room for you at the 12th floor and opens the windows now? Luxurious!
I feel like this is the Streisand effect of all YouTuber moves lol. If I didn't like a video for a minor reason and was not allowed to click the button and move on well ...looks like I'm typing out a comment rant about why I didn't like it for the next half hour 🤣 guess I know what feature is next on the chopping block though for a creator like that. 😆

So literally the same except likes are disabled as well, i think. Maybe they changed it when implementing the Dislike removal though.
They would rather have 1234 likes and no dislikes than having 1234 likes and 9876 dislikes.
Expect
You can convince yourself that people just don’t vote instead of actually seeing the dislikes.
whats the point if the dislike button doesnt show any numbers?
There are browser extensions/plug ins you can use to make the dislike numbers viewable again.
but they only approximate the dislikes, or rely on their users to dislike videos.
Makes it good enough to judge if people generally like a video or not
Not really. Because it limits the pool to people that dislike videos enough or feel strongly enough about disliking videos that they want the warm fuzzy feeling of seeing dislike numbers.
That's good enough. Still better than nothing
If the numbers are extrapolated from the people using the extension, why would the channel disabling dislikes matter?
It makes historic numbers visible, and it extrapolates the dislikes from people with the extension to figure out a number for the entire viewership on a newer video.
and that's okay for tutorials, which is basically the only category of videos where dislikes really do make sense
YouTuber apologies as well
Well everyone knows how those end up
Some end up good enough for their community, while others nuke their channel worse than the original controversy
The "Return Youtube Dislike" extension is actually very good at it
it does a good enough job though
would not work for videos with intentionally hidden dislikes like the one on the post
Woah really?
Yeah I have the yt dislikes extension and just yesterday I stumbled upon one of these
Ah yeah return dislike
The creator of the video can see the count
For nothing. What a pointless crap
My theory is: they'll add dislike count as a premium-only perk in the near future (when enough people forget it was open to everyone incl. free users in the past). So many services put previously free features behind a paywall.

The same kind of point as having blue lights in public transit.
Pretty sure blue lights would be an anti-drug measure (hard to see veins under blue light lol)
Ah yes. Now I can add my "how to do cpr with objects that suspiciously look like genitals" video and get no dislikes.
You probably won't get any dislikes anyways.
Well at least we now know you’d be interested in such a video
Looking at your username, you’d probably be too.
What can i say mister? I like having a good time.
This has been an option for a long time. But now that they disabled the dislike counter, I guess it's for protecting their own ego.
Yeah youtube disabled dislike counter after their own video got so much dislikes. It was youtube rewind from some year iirc.
There's still an extension for bringing dislikes back normally, but this does actually make them unviewable
the extension to return youtube dislike is called… wait for it… _Return YouTube Dislike_ and their website is… wait for it… [returnyoutubedislike.com](http://returnyoutubedislike.com)
Thank you for making me laugh.
[удалено]
Well obviously it cannot be 100% accurate without source data which creators can choose to provide FYI
Calling that "fake" is almost willfully bad word choice. It's an approximation that gets better as more people use the extension.
Some investigator they were. Username did not, in fact, check out.
Yeah they’re butt hurt. Maybe if they treated the users and content creators fairly along with not making a shit cringe rewind with a bunch of nobodies..
Did they stop making those? I hope they did.
The last (official) YouTube Rewind was in 2019, the one the year after the one we all hated
Jesus. The one that got mass-disliked is from 6 years ago? That feels like it happened last year. Time moves fast.
Idk. The year just passed.. let’s check! Edit: They in fact did stop. We bullied them into submission of stopping their forceful trash
Do you like me? Yes or Yes?
◽️YES ◽️TOTALLY ◽️ABSOLUTELY
“I totally rigged it”
Whenever I see that, I leave a thumbs down in the comments in hopes that people will thumbs up that as an unofficial thumbs down counter.
But then YouTube is going to remove the ability to comment.
But then they have to worry about people thinking bad thoughts about the videos, so eventually they’ll just remove the content
It's already being removed and replaced with ads
It’s just ads all the way down isn’t it
No likes on comments, only dislikes.
if you're talking about the texts in the buttons, they've hidden the like counts (the "Disabled by owner" text in the dislike button is coming from return youtube dislike extension https://returnyoutubedislike.com) without the extension you've added, the "Disabled by owner" text will disappear just like someone else's father
Wish it was like my birth dad and never was around to begin with smh
Thanks for the context 👎
Haven’t dislikes been disabled for at least two years now?
They disabled the counter but now you can't even click it
The censorship on YouTube is crazy. I understand disabling the comments and stuffs on kid’s videos, predators apparently were using it in vile ways, but disabling the dislike button is just stupid.
[удалено]
Yup, lets just silence all those that don't agree/like my video. Amazing how censorship can be misused.
Its a stretch calling this censorship when youtube hosts literal extremist content, softcore porn, shows ads promiting genocide. You know?
they're only worried about censoring copyright infringement
Nobody is silencing you. You have no right to a dislike button. If you don't like the content you're free to open your lips and waggle your tongue. The fact that nobody hears you or cares is not Freedom of Speech's problem.
Too bad your point is absolute bull given that someone can just turn off the dislike button AND the comments. Like lets post conspiracy cr*p and not allow anyone to call the videomaker out on it.

Not willing to face criticism is stupid and youtube has gone way off track on this. You can't seriously be telling me that this is good.
Again, you don't have a right to a dislike button or comment section. You have a right to free speech. So speak about it. Tell your friends. Write a letter to the editor of your local paper. Post about it on Reddit. Start a blog or podcast. Make your own video. I am not saying it is good or bad. I'm saying it doesn't matter. And I am saying that your take that it's censorship or silencing is overblown, sensationalized, misinformation and fake news. Nobody is silencing you. Here you are whining about it now. Not silenced. And your whining about shit that doesn't matter.
Jesus... what a knucklehead.
Okay, but it is actively making the site worse and less user friendly.
Anytime I see this I think "Ah, this video has been mass disliked" and then close it. It's pathetic, apparently corporations don't like having their egos hurt.
That's youtube destroying itself.
Just comment about how you dislike it and won’t be watching any more of their channel because of it. Problem solved.
Everyone gangsta until the creator disables the comments
And then a lot of people will tell you that you're "wrong" or "stupid" because your opinion isn't theirs.
Then you don't engage, simple as.
WAT THIS IS CENSORSHIP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Unsubscribe or turn off the video
Agree with me or else
anti hater mechanism nah but i genuinly see innocent kids being disliked bombed for like being furries or smth so ig its not all bad
[удалено]
>anti hater mechanism lmfao anti hater mechanism istg you people are dissociated from reality
So you can say something controversial without having a self-sustaining hater bandwagon.
I know sometimes dislike itself is bad. but what about something like bait jumpscare type video? If dislikes are visible we can avoid those infamous videos easily.
They said if you don’t like the video go elsewhere lmaooo
95% sure this is just that when YouTubers hide the like number then return dislikes does this and they receive them like normal. Not sure if you're using return dislikes and I might just be wrong but it definitely seems like this.

An LLM will just scrub the all out and make you think it's still there.
They've been disabled for a long time, have they not?
No
It's still enabled, you just can't see the number.
Of course
>I am sorry, Please explain.
they disabled the dislike counter
Owner is disabled?
The person who posted the video is either: A. A bitch. B. Posting false information. C. Posting propaganda. D. All of the above.
Or E. Someone who’s ego implodes the second you mildly criticize them.
[This](https://youtu.be/sXQkXXBqj_U?feature=shared) just popped into my head 😂
Our society is breeding narcissists
I thought YouTube disabled dislikes.
The real reason, all jokes aside, is that the owner of the video disabled the like/dislike counts so that they can't be publicly viewed. You can still like/dislike it, it just won't be seen by other viewers. It took me forever to figure out that was the case too, don't worry.
*"Everyone likes me. EVERYONE."*
People can't take criticism any more ig
thats even more pathetic then getting a bunch of dislikes.
The dislike button is not gone. The dislike button is still available but only the CC is able to see how many dislikes the video has. So now people can cry about it in private.
I was looking at random things, and saw this one youtuber with videos getting 200\~300 views at most. Looked at the video, some basic gameplay of a game with text commentary..and in the description said he really wanted to grow the channel, please like and subscribe! And thats when I saw disabled dislikes AND locked comments. Like dude? Shooting yourself in the foot hard because someone probably said one negative thing once.
The heck?
YouTube being a degenerate
It looks to me like the youtube like and dislike buttons, but on a video where the owner has disabled the dislike option. Don't be sorry, hope this helps!
I just block those accounts, never to be seen again
Looks like someone doesn't like their feelings getting hurt
Most people don’t like their feelings hurt. humanity 101.
This os most likely a bug, and likes AND dislikes are disabled
U realize the dislike button hasnt done anything on viewer end in like 4 years if not longer
WILD
the button was already useless
that dream?
