My instance tried to disable downvotes and it was a fiasco.

So yeah a lot of people are keen to remove user feedback in any way possible in the hope to lessen toxicity until they notice that it's a double edged sword. People can't dislike stuff just to troll or for bad reasons. But people couldn't even downvote a spam bot and you essentially are at the mercy of anybody if a mod is not close by ready to act. Likes and dislikes are a way to outsource moderation to the users. So either X has a secret army of moderators or that will just result in a lot more trash being on the foreground.

No likes on X means that the spammers, racists, stalker will essentially be at the same level of visibility than any other user.

I'm sure that will go just fine...
