YouTube is experimenting with a new feature for YouTube Shorts which will add a “Save” button so users can come back to their favorite Shorts. This button will be added in the place of the dislike button and the dislike button would be eliminated from the user interface. Right now, YouTube Shorts has five buttons at the right side. These include like, dislike, comments, share and remix. YouTube is thinking about removing the dislike button to add the save button there.
YouTube has explained the addition of the Save button of YouTube Shorts that they are adding this button so users can bookmark their favorite shorts and come back to watch them whenever they want. This feature is already available for some of the test group and they can see it in the place of the dislike button. If a user wants to dislike a Shorts or send feedback, he would have to click the three dots at the top right corner of the screen to do so.
This means that users will still be able to like and dislike Shorts. For liking the Shorts, just press the like button at the right side of the screen. But if they want to dislike it, they’ll have to dig deeper. YouTube’s decision to remove the dislike button from the UI tells us that people do not frequently dislike Shorts. The feature is still under experiments and testing to a small number of viewers on YouTube.
