      YouTube’s new Hype feature is aimed at growing smaller channels and helping people discover and share new creators. It introduces a new button for hyping a video – the most hyped videos will appear on a platform-wide leaderboard. Leaderboards are specific to each country. YouTube wants to make sure the leaderboard changes a lot and that people feel invested in each thing they type. Users will receive a summary of the videos they hyped and how well they performed every week.

      Hopefully it fixes their shitty interface. The UI has gotten so bad as mobile app.

      This seems like a nice feature. I’m curious how it pans out. Hopefully it doesn’t result in people just spamming the hype button as that would make it worthless.

      Seems interesting, at the very least. Glad to see that the button is disabled once a channel grows to a certain size (at which point it shouldn’t be needed anymore).

      My only “gripe” is that this seems like what the original “like” button was for, but I suppose this is an expanded and more focused version of that. I have trouble trusting/being excited about anything Youtube does now (partly because I legitimately think they’ve made anti-user moves in the past and partly because it’s just hard not to be cynical on the internet), but this sounds like a positive move.

      Not exactly a futurology topic, it’s just a new, not particularly innovative feature on a website

      YT has become a fundamentally dishonest platform and it’s just another weapon of the CorpoGov Elite.
