Hopefully it’s on by default and works like the old pop-up-video messages over the video. It should play a sound every time one pops up and then a bubble popping sound when you click on it to close it.
This sounds like a great spot for scammers to flood for maximum visabilty. It’ll be too much effort to moderate, so creators will just disable them (if they can) or this will be shut down in about (checks YouTube’s history of dealling with scammers) 3.5 years.
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.
The dislike bar was real, I’ll tell ya, I’ve lived nigh on eighty years and me own two eyes seent the dislike bar clear as day! Ye better believe, sonny, it’s the truth!

So we can explicitly graffiti videos but we can’t add translations. 🤯
Doesn’t the quagmire currently known as the website formerly known as Twitter already have this feature? Sounds like Y’tube is late to the party.

lol, considering the “quality” content in the comments section it’s just going to be a continuation of that dumpster fire.
Wait, didn’t this feature already exist for years and then was shut down??
I feel like this is what the comment section is used for.
I value my mental health too much to regularly dive into the YouTube comment section

This is just for training AI.
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.

So now we have to read a community note to know a video is garbage instead of just seeing a massive dislike bar and clicking off?
LOL definitely a real comment by a real person. Dislike bar…

I don’t see what was wrong with the comment of /u/voyajer. Can you elaborate?
It was a bar that showed the ratio of likes to dislikes
That’s not going to go wrong at all.
So more virtue signal crap. Got it.

You sound stupid when you don’t have independent thought. Maybe not here in this circle jerk but in the real world.
You are very angry about this
…Must have been the wind.
Yeah that’ll end well I’m sure.
Didn’t they take away crowd-sourced subtitles before?
Thanks bruh, if I had the patience to deal with ads maybe I’d watch YouTube.
