After yesterdays 10K Dislike deletion by YouTube on the inauguration video, started tracking the numbers every ten minutes. This is 33 hours from the start of tracking. Inauguration Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q5iCPKDp4V4 Data used (CSV): https://hackerpaste.hns.siasky.net/#EAAk7BxJOcLHUUGKSZiSozk30pdOkEyeul7rKoupoGvDCgTVLOOXJL3tN2xJAXfwlS
--EDIT: Thanks all for the great response!
Tidied the script for people to use if they'd like to track videos themselves. The script works by checking an Invidious instance every ten minutes and outputting the data.
Invidious is an alternate front-end to YouTube that does not use the YT API. This means it can't be banned as it's just accessing the site the way ordinary users do. It also means nobody needs to sign up with a YT account to do the tracking, and it also means YT doesn't have any concept of what's happening. Included here is the exact script used to generate the data used in above chart, just tidied up a bit.
The script uses nodejs so be sure to have that installed (nodejs.org - choose the "recommended for most users" version). There is no error checking on output so may need to manually clean output file of errors incase of disconnects etc. Also be warned if the user doesn't change the output file name on a second run, running the script again will delete the previous output file.
Be great to have pedes tracking different videos. Probably reasonable for a single pede to track 10 vids by staggering script executions by one minute each time. Wouldn't be wise to run more often than that or the Invidious instance may get upset with the amount of traffic (these are run by ordinary people not companies, typically). Recommend choosing different Invidious instances from the default too, to spread around usage.
Here's the script (nodejs): https://hackerpaste.hns.siasky.net/#AACHM9htwj7VWJXcakR0ilowQSJyjkZLnRz-6NAxYfOigQe1UcbSzSBlWGyIm4aZTf
Will log in time to time to help if poss.

They think they are getting away with it.
@OP: Lurker here, just created an account to ask you one question. What program / tool did you use to plot your Data? I'm in desperate need of a tool to reliably plot graphs like you did, with 2 values on X and one value on Y axis. I'd highly appreciate your response. Thank you very much.
Okay, I've found it, it's GNUplot.
Hey fren really dont mean to be rude but could you please do these types of posts on TDW so we can keep this place for Q stuff please dont take it personally im telling everyone the same thing
Fuck youtube by the way they deleting my dislikes
Appreciate this, but found TDW too non-serious. Feel free to repost there. Great Awakening is surely Q-focused, and maybe part of that can be posts helping to open eyes and minds to ongoing deception? Feel this post fits in that way, and might well agree with you on others that don't - a lot of noise at the moment. Go well, fren!
yea this is not too bad i was mostly looking for non q related shitposts and just waste of space in general tryna keep this site quality probably should have left this alone keep doing you fren
How do you have subtractive views?
Yeah it's strange. YT seems to take some views off and then restore that same amount again later, but only sometimes. What's on the chart is just what came down the line.
Anon, what's with the big drop in views?
Great question. The spike at 0:00 is weird too, how are view counts doing that? Outsourcing and quota hires for youtube programmers? I realize there's a delay for numbers to sync up sometimes, it's a distributed system, but the view counts line doesn't look right. Starting to taper off, then it drops, then up again in a straight line... makes me want to see the same chart from a bunch of other videos.
It's weird for sure. Other reply touches on potential reasons, but as they say it still doesn't look right. Def be good to see against different videos.
Dislikes flipped to likes. Come on, man!
It's a wonder they aren't moving the dislikes into the likes column. Or just artificially inflating the likes in general.
It's just so easy to delete votes isn't it.
dems some perty biden lines.... hope hunter doesnt snort them all up
If you turn this upside down, it looks like the election data shifts.
