i really hate the new youtube designs, cause i cannot tell if i have pressed the like button or not, the visual difference is so tiny that i often unlike stuff i have liked before. So sorry dear influencer, but i promise i am beholden to your influence forever
If I otherwise like what I'm seeing in a video and they ask me to "smash", or worse, "destroy" the like button, that's my cue to leave and not come back.
But then I'm not the target audience, so it's not their loss.
