No, I can go and like it.

Further finding: loading a video once may throw up this problem. Loading it again (by restarting the app to remove the cache) usually loads the like count correctly.

What's weird is that not being able to load like count is different from like count being disabled, yet the app seems to treat them as the same thing: disabled like count.
