The removal of dislikes on youtube is fucking asinine

submitted by hilite to whatever 2.3 yearsNov 23, 2021 17:20:05 ago (+51/-0)     (whatever)

Need to look up how to do something and want the best info? Well fuck you because we're taking away the ability quickly figure out if something is shit or not.

They outright ruined the platform because the general public is too based. Think about that. THEY are the losers. THEY are the ones in the wrong. And they don't want you pointing that out. Fuck them.

Well they got stuff out there. Ive not tried it all but we have options. Personally I download the file and play it in my flash player. Works for most everything that doesnt need internet. The window border extends farther than it should for a lot of files though.
There is also stuff to let you play flash in browser. Tends to be optimized for chrome though.
If I remember right the big one is called ruffle. If you go to albinoblack sheep and try a swf file it should walk you through obtaining a different program to play flash in browser.
Beware these programs to let you play flash can freeze your browser if it doesnt like it. Test it a bit if thats your path.
If you want to talk more on it let me know. I can even point you to a flash archive or two.

So do I. I helped build it, along with about 500 other people who used to gather at Matt's CGI Place, and we all watched in horror as it got subverted by the (((new world order))). A number of us fought (including me) but the courts even then were jew-controlled and just didn't care. They fucked us all, six ways from Sunday.

Last I checked, about ten years ago, about 90% of us originals were survivalists or semi-survivalists who had as little to do with the internet as possible. They all thought we were fucking doomed, and that civilization was going to collapse. I thought they were being a bit...extreme...at the time, but now I know: they were just that much fucking smarter than I was. Hope they all survive the collapse, those brilliant bastards....

Matt's CGI Place? And what did they mean by civilization collapse? And when?

Back in the day (mid 90's to early 2000's) there weren't many people who understood the "back-end" of the web - the actual programming that made shit happen (e.g., forums, markets, etc. - hence "CGI"). Most programmers were still mainframe guys who shat on everyone who was a PC guy, and insisted that the future was, well, mainframes, since that's where their bread and butter came from, and they refused to adapt to the coming new world.

Matt's CGI Place was a website that allowed all of us who thought the mainframe guys were fucking idiots to come together and share our expertise with one another. Originally there were about 500 of us - yes, that's right, just 500 hundred of us - in the whole fucking world. We shared everything with each other, because a) the internet was the wild west, and b) there were only 500 people in the ENTIRE WORLD who could actually get shit done, so we literally had no competition. We were flooded with so many jobs we could pick and choose, because everyone else who claimed to be "programmer" was a fucking idiot who sucked tens of thousands of dollars from their clients - and then disappeared, leaving us actual skilled dudes to pick up the pieces.

Since there were so few of us with any real skills, we thought we'd shape the "web space" and keep it free from corporate domination. And we did, for a while - but eventually more and more people got skills, and those assholes didn't give a shit about anything but money, and everything started going sideways, real quick - much quicker than you think. Facebook wasn't the start of this, Facebook was a product of corporatism (2007 or so?). Seriously, most of you are too young to remember the real internet, but the "real" internet started to get perverted around 2000 or so, and quickly slid into the crapper before Facebook or Twitter.

Many of us originals (the 500) cashed out and disappeared, ultimately becoming survivalists living off the grid. These were the smartest of us; they saw the future and opted out pretty much immediately. The rest of us fought and lost; you can look up our court cases on the internet, assuming they haven't been scrubbed. But one by one, we followed those smarter-than-us bastards into isolationism and survivalism, because we eventually came to understand that they were right, and we were wrong - they saw the writing on the wall earlier than all of the rest of us, and it took us years (or even decades) to see what they saw.

I'm one of the last of the 500 who sill lives in "your world". But I only do so because I've lost all hope for humanity; we're all going to die, and it's only by degree. I just don't give a shit anymore; I'll happily go out shooting commies or zog-bots in the face with my AR-15, because I think no matter how well-prepared anyone is, you're ALL going to die in the end. Sad, but true; I'd rather not drag things out.

[ - ] i_hate_sodomites 0 points 2.3 yearsDec 15, 2021 17:02:40 ago (+0/-0)

Oh, look - the usual zog-bots aren't voting me down! Makes you wonder, doesn't it? Shouldn't it? They don't want to draw attention to my post, and I wonder why that is? Because it's the fucking truth, maybe???

Just perhaps the posts you should pay attention to aren't the ones you have massive upvoats or downvoats, but the ones that the zogs ignore altogether. Because one thing the zogs hate, despise and loathe more than anything else, is the truth. Think about that you little cunts....

I've noticed a lot of things are "improved" by faggots these days that were working just fine before they needed to be "fixed".

[ - ] Atlo 1 point 2.3 yearsNov 24, 2021 02:09:56 ago (+1/-0)

''If it works, don't fix it!'' is, after all, an old slogan of programmers.

[ - ] baad73e 7 points 2.3 yearsNov 23, 2021 20:19:48 ago (+7/-0)

It's to enable manufactured consent.

The community as a whole used to be able to say "we don't like or trust this" when youtube promoted some piece of shit content from a moneyed interest. Now they can't. Now you just see a meaningless number that indicates people like the thing. That's all.

Same reason Netflix got rid of ratings and reviews; now all they do is pump out shitty content and pretend people like it.

Now it's like twitter, it will just get ratio'd with top comments getting more likes than the video

[ - ] UncleDoug 5 points 2.3 yearsNov 23, 2021 19:40:17 ago (+5/-0)

It makes every piece of content on there effectively worthless.

There is zero way of gauging the usefulness of any video now.

Say you watch a video about how to erect a shed, it has 3 times as many downvotes as upvotes, if you don't know how to build it, that's not a good way to start.

Youtube has now become tikitok

A propaganda outlet doesnt care much about its usefulness beyond its ability to influence others.

Can't we just make a new YouTube?? Can't we just make our own internet? I know this sounds like a dumb question, and honestly I'm pretty dumb about the topic specifically but as the rest of the tech world is moving towards cloud based shit, can't we just put down some hard servers and make some old school Tandy style PClink system? I know I opened myself up on this one, ready for the roasting...

[ - ] PotatoWhisperer 3 points 2.3 yearsNov 23, 2021 22:48:14 ago (+3/-0)

Some good folks are working on it. There's already competitors to jewtube and the like but it is difficult when the entire system is against you. Distributed systems of communications, basic internet platforms, and the like are difficult not because of the tech but because of the gov-led monopoly system that has been specifically designed to kill any/all competition, especially upstarts that go against the ((narrative)).

Well sites with Videos are nothing new. Yahoo! had videos, Dailymotion is still around, and a bunch of others. But they are/were all Corporation owned. Youtube overshadowed them all in time because of several reasons actually, but mostly:

1) They had Googles financial backing
2) They monetised ''content'' creators (Some did pay for views, but again - other reasons)

When censorship came bearing down, BitChute was supposed to become an alternative.
Sadly, they became pozzed and now censor too! :/

You can still find ''good'' videos there, but... they censor... and ''regular'' creators don't post there.
Same as with: Odysey, WorldTruthVideos, Librry and what have you not. (They are not spelled that way, but I can't be bothered to look up their weird spellings.)

There are video sites. But them not becoming popular is the problem.

[ - ] fritz_maurentod 1 point 2.3 yearsNov 24, 2021 07:08:10 ago (+1/-0)

You have Bitchute, Odysee, Rumble, etc. It's just a matter of time though until the Jews coerce the owners to start censoring things they don't like.

[ - ] Jerd34 0 points 2.3 yearsNov 24, 2021 09:26:25 ago (+0/-0)

I'm pretty sure that's already happening. I feel like bitchute is already jewed up.. either way, i still think it's hopeless. We will never be able to work together. We can't even communicate wihtout hostility and infighting over insignificant bullshit like making grammar mistakes in this forum. Usa is toast. Most white people are fucking trash at this point. Yeah we're still the superior race but a few generations of mass media consumption, materialism, self gratification, mindless Entertainment (sports etc).. There's really not much of value, nothing worth salvaging. We would be better off seeding our race on a different continent and just wait it out. Let this rest of the idiots kill each other off. And yeah that includes a large portion of the white trash on voat.

What's depressing is that there is no place left to go. We need a super rich non Jewish man to create an arcology for us on the Antarctic or some other desolate place.

What does it matter, Bing and Google are just going to remove the competitor from the index and most privacy search engines use search results from Google and Bing, so it's effectively gone.

Easy way around it is to have someone comment "like this comment for dislikes". Then the top comment will be people disliking the video. That's when they disable their comments.

Sounds like a spot for a new platform just opened up. A site just for "how-to's", "diy", "non-fiction." would probably appear non-threatening. Just like a little bookstore called Amazon.

Once Trump is reelected they will immediately bring the dislike button back. They don't want President Biden disrespected, so they play this canard. 81M.Org

Dude, Trump is never going to be president again.

He fucked up...had 4 years to secure the election process and didn't.

As for the dislike button... Good chance it's gonna to return a la 'coke original' or to absolve them of some fuckery they get caught doing

Fun fact if you replace youtube.com
With yewtu.be not only you get an ad-less experience but you can also see the dislikes

Its funny, they went through so much effort to HIDE the feature but i'm betting some third party now probably gonna make an app for jewtube dislikes

Maybe I have favored status, I just hit the dislike button on about five videos all of which were unboxings of the Valeton GP-100 Multi Effects Guitar Processor, the vids all had some dude looks like he lives on the street going on about how wonderful the unit is, before launching into heavily synthed heavy metal riffs on an electric guitar .. none of them say how to get the tuner working, what the foot pedal does, what the array of screen options are for or what they do .. that's why I DV'd 'em anyway.

It's not that it's missing, it's that the numbers of dislikes is hidden. Once you press the dislike button, it says that feedback will be given to the creator.

[ - ] oldblo 1 point 2.3 yearsNov 23, 2021 21:10:21 ago (+1/-0)

They can and have removed dislikes and upvotes to display a false amount.
They can also disable the dislike function entirely.
I imagine OP is mentioning either or.

[ - ] paul_neri 0 points 2.3 yearsNov 23, 2021 17:26:59 ago (+1/-1)

it's the way things are nowadays...we simply have to be nice to everyone. It's insane because we don't feel nicely to everyone and "everyone" is going to get an unrealistic picture of the world and their place in it. I think most of us would be surprised at just how tenuous are the favourable feelings those close to us hold for us. Sorry but it's true.

...and to care what Alphabet corp. does with Youtube is just as stupid when the bulk of the site is worthless. There are dozens, if not hundreds, of alternative media sites out there. If Youtube isn't your thing, go somewhere else.
