like and dislike button!

Scratch is evolving and growing every day! the community already has the ability to love and favorite projects

And how about if there were buttons: like and dislike? the like could be seen and the dislike would be hidden!

I made an image in the scratch editor of what this function would look like:



Would it be cool?

This unfortunately is rejected, meaning that the Scratch team has already considered and decided against suggestions like this:
4.2 Dislike button or a project rating system
Generally, a user's first project is something rather simple, such as a test project, a remix, or a project made using a tutorial. Because this project is simple, other users may give the project low ratings since it is not advanced. With low enough ratings, the creator might be discouraged enough to stop using Scratch. Moreover, constructive feedback is encouraged on Scratch. A dislike button may show the creator how many people disliked their project, but it tells nothing about what the creator could do better. If you do not like a project, you could choose not to love it, or you could leave a respectful and constructive comment telling the user how to improve, in addition to saying what you like about the project.

Well, the dislike button would not show the number of Dislikes. it would just appear: ‘'Dislike’'

That wouldn't really have a purpose. Plus it's too YouTube-y

A like button is already being discussed here.
A dislike button is rejected, meaning it won't be added to Scratch. Please read The Official List of Rejected Suggestions before creating a suggestion.

With that, a dislike button is rejected for anything, including projects and comments. However, a like button for comments is NOT rejected. You can discuss it on this topic.
