No More Dislikes: Why this is a Terrible Decision for the Platform

In this brief video I quickly talk about why CZcams's recent decision to hide public dislike counters is a terrible decision for their platform, and why it is not made to protect small creators as they say, and rather to push a safer space for their corporate and political friends.
🖒Like if you liked the video, that's why it's called a like🖒

Note:
This is essentially a one-off video. I'm not about to become a YT drama channel or anything of the sort. I just wanted to use my platform to discuss this change that I still strongly dislike.
The next video will be on the DST/Terraria Crossover IF it's more than just a few skins and a small amount of content. If it's literally like 2 extra mobs, I probably won't bother, as I won't have much to say.
Adios and much love

I saw this and got ptsd from edgy rick talking about current events, Im sure itll be a lovely video though because you're not edgy rick (it was indeed a lovely video, I've always been partial to hating on youtube, but this change is probably a new low when it comes to being a viewer)

[@FreddoFilms]

Yeah I wasn't 100% on it while making it, but this really is quite a big problem imo.
This video is probably more or less a one-off thing, I'm not about to become a youtube drama channel or anything lol

[@lordgigapiller]

@@FreddoFilms I mean you're free to do whatever you want, youtubers should be able to branch out into whatever they want as long as it isn't cringe. People like Rick and Beard just create an annoying stain on one of the best communities out there. And yeah it's definitely important, if only youtube would ever listen to their community then this platform could be a lot better

[@EdgyRick]

Only the beginning babe. Y'all are shortsighted.

[@lordgigapiller]

@@EdgyRick no, also I find it funny you can't silence me here. If you improve your attitude then you'll be able to get a new beginning, and if you do good on ya for improving yourself. Until then you're pretty unpleasant tho tbh

Dude, don't talk about him.

[@oliviapenelopehope4497]

It’s helpful to see how generally how the masses respond to the video. It’s helpful to see how controversial/interesting the video will be before watching it.

CZcams: we are going to remove the dislike button to stop hate
Comment section: "nervous sweating"

[@AlexaAXAG]

You're the only one to actually say the obvious truth, too bad the creators with gigantic megaphones are too dumb to figure out such obvious shit, or even argue in favor of it.

[@callahanfolt6460]

man if dislike button is gone is there any point pressing like button anymore
I hope this wouldnt make ppl expressing dislike in more toxic comment

[@FIamestalker]

It will, without the dislike button more people will turn to the comments to express their dislike of a video. But that's fine for CZcams as that doesn't matter to CZcams's corporate/politician buddies as they (almost) always turn the comments off anyway

[@tinkyshugetoes]

opens with ROR2 captain gameplay, absolute chad
anyways, i can't fathom CZcams doubling down on this change as all it does is show the transparency of their defense of corporations. great vid as always Freddo

They're rolling it out slowly from platform to platform and region to region.
It'll happen to you too, at least unless people do enough about it.
