Yeah, the dislike bar used to be a thing. You could see how many dislikes there were compared to likes, all represented on a line below the two buttons. It was sort of like this image, except imagine the “yes” and “no” as a single line (but retaining their separate colors).
So now we have to read a community note to know a video is garbage instead of just seeing a massive dislike bar and clicking off?
LOL definitely a real comment by a real person. Dislike bar…
It was a bar that showed the ratio of likes to dislikes
I don’t see what was wrong with the comment of /u/voyajer. Can you elaborate?

Wait till you tell him youtube used to have a 5-star rating system
Didn’t they take away the dislike button?
The removed the dislike count a couple years ago, so you can no longer see if a video is terrible.
The thumbnail and title alone is typically enough to know how garbage it is.
you can still see that number on smarttube
