YouTube is much worse since they straight up removed dislikes (unless you get some add-on)

YouTube has dislikes. The thumb down is still there. But it doesn't show the results.

You’re right, just checked out YouTube without my add-on. So weird on why they even keep it.

We can't see it, but creators and anyone they want to share data with (advertisers) can see it.

It still affects engagement statistics/algorithmic suggestions, and video posters can still see them to help gauge what content is liked or not. It's just hidden from viewers.

  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
