Linus Tech Tips claims YouTube didn\u2019t care about community concerns during dislike meeting YouTube\/Linus Tech TipsAccording to Linus Tech Tips, YouTube doesn\u2019t care about the community\u2019s concerns about removing dislike counts on videos. YouTube\u2019s decision to hide dislike counts on videos has proven controversial with users and creators on the site, including Asmongold, PewDiePie, and xQc. While multiple creators have spoken out against the change, Linus actually got the chance to bring up these concerns with YouTube directly. Despite the opportunity though, the site doesn\u2019t seem to care according to him. YouTube gives \u201czero ducks\u201d about dislike concerns Yes I had the dislike counter meeting with YouTube. Zero ducks were given about my concerns or the ones shared by our community. https:\/\/t.co\/WqReobyBnD \u2014 Linus LinusMediaGroup (@linusgsebastian) November 27, 2021 After a user on Twitter asked Linus whether or not the dislike meeting had gone down with the video site, the YouTuber answered it had, but wasn\u2019t much of a success. \u201cYes, I had the dislike counter meeting with YouTube,\u201d he wrote. \u201cZero ducks were given about my concerns or the ones shared by our community.\u201d Fellow creator Hasan claimed brands and the massive unpopularity of YouTube\u2019s Rewind, were some reasons for dislikes being removed. Linus didn\u2019t go that far, but did admit they could have played some part. It’s hard to say how much those factors affected the decision, but it’s clear that this step toward reduced transparency sucks. \u2014 Linus LinusMediaGroup (@linusgsebastian) November 27, 2021 \u201cIt\u2019s hard to say how much those factors affected the decision,\u201d Linus responded. \u201cBut, it\u2019s clear that this step toward reduced transparency sucks.\u201d The feeling that the removal of dislikes will take away a level of transparency to what\u2019s actually popular or not, has been one of the main sticking points for most who are against the change. So, while the decision to remove dislikes might be hugely unpopular with users and creators alike, according to Linus, YouTube just doesn\u2019t care.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
