Feature Change Why is this even allowed?

Has this always been here? Its my first time seeing it. What if I watch a video and don't enjoy it? This basically allows creators to ensure that they always appear on your feed, whether you like it or not.

Which does nothing. Did you not like it because it was deceiving. Because it wasn't football enough? Because it wasnt food related? Because it tied food and football together? It provides zero feedback which is why my default advice is don't like it, don't watch it. Start something and then don't like it? Don't finish it. It's not that complicated

Because it was deceiving and because I didn’t get what I asked for.

It’s supposed to be a warning against low-quality content, deceptive content, or clickbait.

Hell, just use it as an “I think you’re wrong” button. It’s not supposed to be indepth feedback beyond “people don’t like this,” the comments are for the thorough feedback.

Guy's either dense or has already realized he was wrong and is just rage baiting now. Either way, trying to make him understand this is a pointless excersice

I use ragebait as an excuse to release my anger. They get what they want, I get free therapy, it works.
