Seems like a bit disproportionate reaction. Most of YouTube's value is in the videos.. not the dislike counter. Help me understand the trade-off here...

- rgrs 5y agoVideo's value is in dislike counter. It helps in assessing content from new/smaller studios.
- stjohnswarts 5y agoYeah, I'm actually behind this one. There's enough negativity on the internet, if youtube lose 0.25% of their premium subscribers they'll still be just fine. I doubt if much more than that will drop their subscriptions as the main value is lots less ads and premium-only content.
- MMS21 5y agoIf you cant deal with the negativity then stop making videos, its that simple.
- weeblewobble 5y agoBy the same token, if you can't deal with people who don't want to deal with negativity then stop using YouTube. It's that simple
- MMS21 5y agoHave you ever tried watching a tutorial and come across one that has a ton of dislikes? Its a clear indicator that the video is a waste of time. Removing this is going to waste peoples time.
