    Does anyone know is there a reason why they got rid of dislike? I’d have thought they’d want it to help improve recommendations?

      The main reason cited was that downvotes discouraged creators from naming and uploading content. There’s probably some truth to it. If I got served with a 10 minute tutorial video and a 60% vote ratio I’m probably not watching that very far.
