Youtube It is one of the most visited sites on the internet. Even today it has proven that it is a great tool, both for companies to advertise themselves, and for users to express that something does not seem to them. Let’s remember the dislikes you received Nintendo in the announcement of Expansion Pack of your online service.
While the option to ‘dislike’ videos can be useful for several things, such as knowing that it is clickbait, it can also be used in a negative way. Perhaps that is why Youtube decided that users will not be able to see the number of dislikes a video has.
Goodbye to public dislikes on YouTube
Through the channel from YouTube Creators This news was announced which has caused some stir. While the dislike button will not disappear, now only the owners of the videos will be able to know the exact number of handymen below that they have collected. The ‘likes’ will remain in view of all.
Matt Koval, the one in charge of communicating with the creators in Youtube, appears giving the reasons behind this. As suspected, the decision was made due to the fact that several users use this tool for different purposes than previously thought.
According to research teams on the platform, many people simply use dislike to affect a certain creator without even watching the videos. This was seen recently when some fans of Spider-man they filled with negative votes any video of Sony Pictures. This is because they have not uploaded a new advance of No way home.
Youtube I had already experimented with the disappearance of dislikes in January. It was here that they realized that the number of these ‘attacks’ was reduced, so they decided to implement it permanently. The change is already applied, so you will no longer be able to see if a video is highly hated or not. What do you think of this decision?
