    It means no failed video. The algorithm could push something and there would be no way for users to see if it was received well or not. Youtube will know, they have watchtime etc.

    This probably is good for sponsorship. Like the Abby Shapiro videos that were massively pushed through ads. But nobody liked them so they got a lot of downvotes.

    Also remember this failed YT thing, Youtube Rewind? Next time nobody will know it was a fail.

      Rewind is one of the cringiest things YouTube has ever done.

      Just learned that the dislikes will still be available for the creator to see in YT Studio

        The creators have way more tools anyways, dislikes was helpful to the users. I don’t care if creators can still see them.

          Fair enough. I really don’t like that they are becoming less transparent. If anything, they should be becoming more transparent.
