YouTube might be testing hiding the dislike button

YouTube appears to be testing a change that would move the dislike button into the three-dots submenu, according to screenshots shared by users on X and Reddit. The shift would make the dislike option less visible and require extra taps to access. YouTube previously removed the public dislike count in 2021, and Shorts never had a dislike button.
