I have been chosen.

Yep, it's true.
Who have I been chosen by? Google.
What has Google chosen me for? I can't see dislikes.

On every single video, I can't see the dislike count, only the like count. Apparently, people are randomly selected for this. I'm so glad to be a part of this revolutionary new feature.

shutting down dislikes is like casturation, think of all those huge positive ratios people get. Thousands of thumbs up and barely any thumbs down, hell of a confirmation bias. People that WOULD dislike the video can't be bothered to actually see it, so people get huge e-dicks off of it. It would be funny to watch all those e-dicks get absolutely severed

He is the chosen one. All hail!

Seriously though, removing dislikes is stupid. I need to be able to diss Rewind 2018

See, you'd think this was a move to protect fee fees and prevent dislike bombing, but I have a feeling it's not. Technically speaking, from the algorithm's perspective, a "Dislike" counts as viewer engagement. The viewer saw the video and *hated* it enough to have a visceral reaction to it, and that is weighted in video promotion. That, and it saves YouTube's face every year they do a crappy rewind full of creators nobody actually cares about.

It is like sports for small kids:
"hey, everybody won!!! Let's celebrate!"

Anyway, dislikes is mostly trolling but I like to see dumb products like Diablo Mobile getting disliked...

The future is all about positivity and control through censorship. You cant really be against anything. The only option is to pile into one of the many buckets of nonsense.

What are you guys talking about? There is not a Dislike button on even GBAtemp. Which If there were, I would receive plenty of them.I'm sure of it. LoL. Which is cool. No problem.

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
