What are you talking about??? The previous WAS MADE BY GOOGLE. 😂
Edit: it wasn't a workaround, it was a feature built into the YouTube app that is made by Google. I can't believe I have to explain this. Lol
You wrote "there was a fix" which I assumed you meant one of those user scripts / browser extensions that let users access removed features for a while. Pretty sure this worked with downvotes for a while but not in an official capacity.
Ok. I see where the confusion lies. My bad. It was just me being sarcastic that those dumb asses created an unnecessary problem and now they're trying fucking fix it. They could just bring back the dislike button. Sorry
