I condone poisoning this feature with false info. maybe it will teach them that the dislikes should be public again. using an extension is cool and all, but so many people still don’t know about it.
It really is unfortunate as it COULD be a really good feature if it were being implemented by someone who wasn’t just trying to crowdsource AI training data that will go into commercial products without compensation to anyone. It could be a great tool for professionals and experts to expand on what creators say, a way to call out falsehoods and Hypocrites, and a way to find your people in a world that is growing ever bleaker. But no, it is just being done to force more ads down our throats and harvest more money from us.
I give this about two weeks before they realize that it’s as effective at helping their advertising as having dislike buttons are.
I am not condoning poisoning of this well of information, but I will laugh my ass off when it inevitably occurs.

And, once they discontinue it, I hope someone creates an add-on to bring it back like they did with dislikes.
It’s a bit out-of-scope, but it’d be a great SponsorBlock feature!
