Google experimented with a big YouTube user interface change earlier this year when it decided to hide the number of likes videos get on the platform. Google explained that the move should protect smaller channels from being attacked by coordinated dislike attacks. YouTube started the test in late March, and is now finally ready to roll it out to all users. YouTube videos will only show the number of likes going forward, with the number of dislikes remaining hidden.
Google’s decision is understandable, but not everyone will appreciate the change. And plenty of YouTubers pressed the dislike button on YouTube’s own video announcing the change.
