MODERATORS
Unpopular opinion, I know, but downvotes are an anti-feature, designed to excuse big, for-profit social media from actually moderating their platforms. They have no place in real social spaces.
Nearly all large social media platforms have removed dislikes / downvotes. Reddit is the last one to have them, and it wouldn't surprise me if they remove them also.
You can still thumb down YouTube videos but may need a better client or browser plugin.
