The creator can still feel like shit for making a bad/unpopular video when they see the number of dislikes, so it still has a point for me.
Maybe it affects the algorithm or something. And it allows the users to at least feel like they’re expressing their feelings, without outright denying the option like Facebook used to do.
Algorithm favors videos that are highly upvoted or downvoted. Anything that gets emotion/reaction out of you - doesn’t matter whether positive or negative - is brought to the top.

imo its not about feelings, but about the image.
having for example a massively disliked trailer,
turns into more negative press.
so youtube protects its big buisness customers,
and pretends its a change to protect creators in general.
Can creators really see their downvotes?
I’m a creator and I cannot see the dislikes.
Or maybe I’ve never seen any dislikes because nobody has ever given me a thumbs down?
Jeez who hurt you haha
People who don’t recognise my shoddily delivered irony (among others) ☹️
