YouTube offers users the option to curate a list of liked videos. The visibility of this list is controlled through privacy settings. Initially, liked videos are typically set to private, meaning only the account holder can view them. However, users can adjust these settings to allow public access to their liked videos playlist.
Sharing liked videos can be a way to express personal preferences and discover common interests with other users. Historically, the feature has evolved alongside YouTube’s platform, allowing for more control over user privacy. Publicly displaying liked videos allows creators to gain insight into audience interests and for viewers to find new content based on shared preferences.
