Making the dislike count private across YouTube

Would you trust YT to define what a "small creator" is? It opens the door to other policies being applied only to "small creators" as well, and I don't personally like that thought

They already apply different rules to small creators. For instance, you must have 1000 subscribers and 4000 hours of watch time per a year in order to monetise videos.

That's not even close to what "small creator" would mean on YT

My point was that your slippery slope argument was a bit bonkers because YouTube already has a mechanism to impose varying rules on channels based on size.

They already do that. They don't pay creators at all who have less than 1000 subscribers and 4000 watch hours in the past year.

You also cannot have comments on videos that feature or target children

That's a response to a legal requirement
