Shameless plug for the

The dislike removal is the most stupid idea on a platform like YouTube where people go to it for real information, not just dumb ass vids like tiktok or something.

My friend had a epilepsy seizure and I went on YouTube to search what to do in a state of panic.

This browser extension

Simple. They just want more traffic for their ads, if people see dislikes on videos there's a huge chance they won't even view it.

Am I the only one using extension to see youtube dislikes??

Just install the "Return Dislike button" Extension for google chrome.

That’s why we need a decentralized version of YouTube.

Yep, I sort of lost interest in YouTube alltogethet..

You think many dislikes does not impede on a video being suggested or recommended? I'm sure it does.

Can't have left leaning policies getting more dislikes than likes so a change was needed. /s

Friendly Reminder : Do not go looking for new coins to invest in on YouTube. Do it on Reddit just like I do!

This is the way.

It’s the DM’s you have to listen too. They want to get you in for early adoption . It’s so nice to have such a caring community

How has that worked so far? If it’s any good I might just follow in your footsteps.

That sounds orgasmic :D

Hey, you seem like a smart guy, why don't you buy my new coin, it's called SuperCoolActionMoon or $SCAM for short.

You can use

Why did I not know about this already smh, thanks bud

Yeah I just use an extension. Cant believe people dont see dislikes and do nothing about it

I don’t think that works on new videos though, only old ones before the change.

Not all heroes wear cap

It's a bad idea to take crypto advice from Youtube in general, dislike button or not. It's just a bunch of people shilling their bags

Even the comment sections are full of scammers and shillers

True for most part but scams on YouTube used to be short-lived but with the removal of dislikes, it's just allowed to continue longer.

LRC GME partnership confirmed Giant moons arrows incoming. /s

I like to comment “dislike” on videos I dislike.

This is great. Doing your part.

This actually helps the video because it increases the “engagement” the video has received …

This guy is from the future

I like to report them. Usually does the trick.

Drives up their interaction score.

Youtube is for fixing appliances, not for financial advice.

AND building software. This is why I'm mad at the Indian government for the 30% tax, my poor indian friends 😤

Removing dislikes was the dumbest thing YouTube has ever done. PC is out of control.

For real

All of a sudden, YouTube and Facebook are trying to be TikTok.

Thankfully there are browser extensions that put the dislike counters back.

No, actually. As the dislike count isn't showing up, people just won't bother clicking that thumb-down button. It's rather pointless clicking that button, knowing quite well that nobody would see it.

Are those accurate though? I heard YouTube removed the API to track that

if the comment section is blocked assume its a scam

same if the amount of comments is incredibly disproportional and has only positive messages with lots of likes, the scammer can filter out comments of people trying to expose the scam

Yeah that’s a something I look for too. Disabled comments is a red flag for me

Probably best to not use YouTube at all with crypto.

Maybe the dislike button is the start of a bigger YouTube scam

Exactly. But hey, these YT motherfuckers don't think about those things. They only care about protecting people's feelings... Or protecting big institutions and legacy media who everybody was slamming dislikes at. I never understood why they removed the dislike count. Fucked Up. It is no longer YouTube. It is TheirTube now.

I think you should be careful with anything you see on YouTube regardless. There’s minimal restrictions on content so long as it’s not offensive/illegal

Not only are they scams, but the youtubers getting paid to shill it as part of their "job" and pretend like "they want you to get rich" nah bro they want to get rich.

Hope this helps

There's browser add-ons for dislike counter aren't there?

Just install the "Return Dislike button" Extension for google chrome.

When it comes to crypto users, you shouldn't install more extensions. Malicious extensions can drain your wallets and accounts clean.

there is a chrome extension that shows dislike count. the dislike count did not get removed, it is just hidden from the standard interface. if you get that extension you will see the dislike count as before the change.

Instead of getting a dislike button on Facebook, we lost the one on YouTube.

I think there is a app or at least a plugin at Firefox where can you show the thumb ups again, it works for the most time 👍

Install a extension on your browser so you can see the dislike ratio

There are extensions to restore the dislike button

The removal of the dislike button is in my view a terrible idea.

FYI, chrome has an extension to bring the dislike count back.

Download the chrome extension to bring back the dislike button.

Oh Youtube, what have you done?

Good advice actually

I’ve noticed that too. It’s just cheerleading for advertisers now.

Still baffles me that Youtube removed the dislike button

You're right. But people today care so much about being validated 'on the internet', by others that the dislike button would give them so much grief and sadness. What a world.

Don't be distracted by all the shitcoins all over

Friendly reminder.....don't get your financial advice from dumb cunts on YouTube or any social media.

YT is for vlogs and for tutorials about your new hobbies. Please dont take financial advice on there seriously

[удалено]

So one of the claims was that there’s no difference in the number of people that view a video when seeing the dislikes or not. That’s according to their research apparently:

Because their algorithm banks on the popularity of videos instead of factuality. These algorithms popularize controversies because controversies can spread like wild fires.

I’d rather take advice from

A person who trusts people on Youtube and tiktok deserves to be scammed

Dislikes still have the same effect on the algorithm, so make sure to use them.

If you find yourself in the low market cap sea you are most likely already in the casino of crypto. And on YouTube they basically tell you which slot gives “the most profit” lmao

We really need to get rid of these centralized webpages where they can do whatever they want.

Youtube dislikes got removed as the big pharma and politicians videos got almost only downvoted.

As opposed to this sub where people only promote the most reputable of coins lmfao

For the love of God unsubscribe to every YouTube crypto guy. No one knows anything. DCA and go in big on large dips. It's so easy to make money without TA

Like it was never be

Add these channels to the list

Better friendly reminder: ALL crypto currencies are scams.

Hello ThatInternetGuy. It looks like you might have found a new scam? If so, pinging

YouTube is garbage, that is not the place to DYOR.

I don't watch anything Crypto related on YouTube.

History needs to remember how youtube took away it’s system if credibility by removing dislikes

Everyone’s a financial expert on YouTube.

Definitely need to refine the DD process of some of these people

Fuck YouTube

May God have mercy on your soul if you take crypto advice from youtube "crypto gurus" just accept that no one knows shit about fuck and DYOR. That said there are some decent people on YouTube. Personally I like Benjamin Cowens analysis and he'll never tell you hey you should buy this or that

There are decent people out there on YouTube. After all, it's the Go-To video platform.

You don’t search for new coins on YouTube. Nobody puts hours into making a video for some random coin unless they paid for it.

I'm honored that the ghost of McAfee is here, commenting on my post.

YouTube has always been a scam haven. It’s just harder to see thru the BS without a dislike button

Yep. Extra careful with one less metric to see.

The YouTube Dislike counter is still there. It's just hidden. You can bring it back with this extension.

I have the YouTube app and I can still see the dislike button, is it only a couple users with this? Or am I one of the lucky few?

I still can’t comprehend why the fuck they did that. It was the only barometer of the content

Good news, I only take my financial advice from this sub

there were some statistic over Bitboy and over 80% of his shilled coins made a lots of minus. lol

Idiots still fell for rubbish scams when the dislike button count was visible... Saying "be careful" won't make a lick of difference to that lot...

I stoped YouTube videos. They are just click baits.

It's better to have your own research before investing

About 10% of viewers of a video hit a like or dislike button. Do some math and you can pretty much figure out how many people dislike a video.

I just stay away from youtube crypto videos!

YouTube wouldn’t lie to me. This is shameless FUD

Stop going to youtube for crypto at all

You guys are still using YouTube?

Buy a small amount of token then try to sell it, many scams disable selling so the price keeps going up attracting more buyers then scammers run with the money

I am not from USA. We still have a dislike button. Is this removal America specific?

Guys there is a chrome extension called youtube dislike which brings back the numbers of dislike on youtube.

i'm really hoping they bring the dislike button back. it was literally one of the best indicators if a video was quality content. now i always have to shift through comments first... fucking annoying.

The dislike count removal is meaningless if you get the chrome extention that adds the counter back in.

I think that even if the Dislike button is not removed, we should not trust most of the moneys we see on youtube

Plot twist: YouTube removed the dislike count so they could create their own shitcoins and rugpull their own users without trouble

I definitely agree that it is now more important than ever to be careful with the content on YouTube, as it is becoming an increasingly popular platform for scams. I think that it is important to be especially wary of videos that have high numbers of likes compared to dislikes, as this is often a sign that the video is not genuine.

Correction YOUTUBE HAS reinstated the dislike button, DISLIKE BUTTON ARE STILL ON MY VIDEOS... Sorry caps to tired to rewrite.

I think I should go back to my DailyMotion days 😂

YouTube

First of all, don't make any investment decisions based on YouTube videos. Also there's this browser extension - Return YouTube Dislike. It's not 100% accurate but it works really well.

I strongly advise anyone to download the "Return YouTube Dislikes" browser extension! It works perfectly and is extremely helpful!

More than ever as crypto soars in popularity we all have to be wary of scams and easy payouts, its but simple logic.

If you are buying any crypto based on you tube vids , regardless of the status of the dislike counter , you are an idiot.

The Youtube API apparently still allows querying for dislikes. Just install a browser extension that brings it back on your device, like "Return YouTube Dislike" for chrome for example

May I ask where is a good place to get advice or news on the topic?

Would the ratio of likes to views help approximate the metric you previously used?

Or just don't be fucking stupid

Crypto YouTube is awful, just another reason to avoid

Fuck Google and YT for removing the dislikes... It's a disaster and shows how corporate filth views the safety of their products' users..

Just speaks volumes about the people that regularly use this reddit.

And remember that a part of these scams includes someone(s) clicking the "likes" thumb repeatedly and writing comments...for some THAT is a job.

Youtube removing the dislike button for their own selfish reasons, clicking on a video and checking the like/dislikes gives you so much information. One quick look at the dislikes and you now that the video is a legit or a scam.

Dont get investment advice from any social media.

We need to pick a new platform and abandon YouTube all together.

You can look at comments, look at the lack of upvotes, and most importantly, stop getting investing advice from YouTube

Thanks for commenting! Contact me on my Whatsapp at 320904598130!

There's a plug in where you can still see the ratio.

get urself Return YouTube Dislike addon from google addons. its amazing

Put it back by using some extenstion in your browser

This is why we need a Don't Stream from Youtube Day, where we don't watch any YT content for 24hrs - see if we can get that on

Youtube removing dislike count is just reason number 46865446789 that we should migrate to Odysee for crypto videos. A lot of people will get scammed and rugged because of no dislike count.

Not necessarily, you can easily buy Youtube upvotes, so sometimes those scams had a very good Like/Dislike ratio.

Youtube is rarely good for anything crypto

I am extra careful with new coins period.

Btw, you can bring back the dislike count using chrome extension.

With YouTube’s monetezation strategy, I would be wary of anyones advice these days

Just don't get your advice from YouTube at all

What about Twitter? Every legit tweet is swamped with bots and sock puppets shilling unheard of coins.
