I think the problem is that the dislike count itself is too aggregated. What you really want is to know if people similar to yourself like / dislike certain content. This is very similar to the problems where YouTube fits you into filter bubbles, and Netflix struggles to tell you good recommendations. TikTok supposedly does a better job then others at this, likely due to having lots of signals from short videos.

>What you really want is to know if people similar to yourself like / dislike certain content For the most part no, I really don't. Maybe this would be something useful for videos on topics like programming, cooking, travelling etc. but I'm not at all interested in knowing if the people with the same worldview as me enjoyed the content, doing so for certain topics (politics, philoshophy, science) creates echo chambers and is overall unhealthy for everyone who is influenced by that content.
