Goolag just hid the dislike count on the HTML side of youtube and the public api access is next, meaning only video creators can review downvotes.
Their claims of mental health are bullshit as this will only placate narcissists, and this only exists to allow questionable parties to hide bad reception of their videos.
On my side, its gone now. Just likes. Dislike has no number associated. Whatever, if the video creator can see it, it doesnt matter. Just a way to demotivate the proles. Doesnt matter, click the button anyway. They can still see how much they are hated.
