Checklist

Describe the feature you want

I don't know how nobody has made an issue for this, but basically make the like and dislike buttons add to a Liked/disliked videos playlist.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe it

A normal playlist just doesn't do the job well, and it adds to the end of the playlist rather than the start.

Additional context

How will you/everyone benefit from this feature?

People will be able to help people mark the videos they like! and maybe help us colonize the galaxy

Local likes sound great to me!
That should be pretty easy to implement.

What about bookmarking instead?

Well that isn't quite the same. You could just have a bookmark playlist for that so I think this is better.

I'll be honest I'm not a fan of the idea and find it quite pointless.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe it

A normal playlist just doesn't do the job well, and it adds to the end of the playlist rather than the start.

If this is the problem, then why not just add the option to sort videos by date added and in ascending/descending order. This is something I am already opening a request for, and it doesn't bloat the app with pointless features.
Edit: created issue #5237

It isn't, but liking/disliking is a pointless feature in an app designed to be account-less.

It's a local feature like the subscribing and lets you keep track of videos you like. If you don't like it then don't use it

But why do you want local rating? It doesn't contribute to the like/dislike rating of the video online, it creates extra work the developer to add a pointless feature that does something you can already do (using playlists). Why complicate the app unnecessarily?
