The only reason I'm still subscribed on YT is so that I can downvote their posts and call them out as fake news in the comments. Perhaps unsubscribing will send a more powerful message.

Unsubscribe and manually search the channel. Also, opening the video to downvote it still counts as a view. Although, I'm not sure if it still does if you manage to downvote while and ad is running.

I don't allow autoplay so it never plays to begin with.

So, that doesn't count as a view? The view becomes triggered when the play button is clicked?

I've seen YouTube creators encourage people to watch their videos all the way through as it helps their engagement numbers. Whether it counts as a view or not I couldn't say.

I think youtube only registers a view if you've watched a certain percentage of the video.

Oh, that's good to know. There's been several times I've wanted to dislike a video, but didn't wanna boost the view count.

I've heard that downvotes help the algorithm (which favors them anyway) do I would just unsubscribe and forget they are a thing.

I've heard downvotes still count as engagement which makes sense if their only goal is to get ad views they don't give a shit if you liked the video or not. I think it's more important for normies to see that the community doesn't approve of their message.

Totally valid. I do find satisfaction in massive downvotes on propaganda that isn't being swallowed.

Right? Whenever I'm using somebody else's computer I'm like "How in the fuck can you surf the web like this?" It's ridiculous how many ads there are everywhere.
