YouTube has been around for about 17 years and has made one of the most impactful, yet controversial changes to their platform, by removing the dislike count visibility. This change was made for the sake of trying to limit bullying against creators on their platform, but there’s always a question on whether this was a good move for user engagement data for the platform overall.

On this episode, Get Community’s Web Developer Joey Grable joined Kelly and Ryan to discuss whether this decision could be harmful or beneficial to the social media platform overall, or if it would inspire certain trends among other leading platforms.
