YT didn't remove the dislike button.



You can even dislike on YT shorts, you just have to change the /shorts/ with /v/

So, https://www.youtube.com/shorts/NB98PR0yuFs becomes https://www.youtube.com/v/NB98PR0yuFs and then you'll see the dislike button.

He meant removing the ability to see the amount of dislikes.

You know this how?

Context clues.

The context being that the button recently was removed from youtube shorts and requires a bit of a work around to dislike a youtube short?

*edit* I'm just going to respond to what people say. If they mean something else they should say something else.

The Australian or kiwi accept thing in my head as I read your post.... Wtf. I have never seen this one.
Excellent 👌🏼

OP never mentioned shorts, though. So are you actually responding to what OP said like you think you are?

Yes. I responded to what OP said.
