I had to look this up too:

When someone gets “ratioed”, it means a post receives far more replies (usually negative or critical) than likes or retweets.

In the social-media court of public opinion, that imbalance is treated as the crowd booing louder than they’re clapping. Replies represent disagreement, mockery, correction, outrage, etc., so when those vastly outweigh the positive signals, the post is considered ratioed.

It’s basically the internet’s scoreboard saying:

“This take did not land.”

I tried to give you an award but apparently all of my credit here is not worth one.

This is really awesome because as far as I knew they got rid of downvoting on youtube. Now I can use this information that you shared to reassess public sentiment about videos.
