YouTube Ratings for Sidebar
Why is this useful?
You can see the ratings for related videos and better decide if you want to watch one.
Why doesn't YouTube do this by default?
I don't actually know, but my assumption is that having it would lessen the number of viewers since it would be extremely easy to spot "clickbait" videos.
How'd you decide to make this extension?
So I was browsing old GitHub projects and I found one that added the ratings to the sidebar of YouTube.
I forked it and got to work to bring it up to date from it's "last updated in 2012" version.
After rewriting what Git tells me is 98% of the code, I finished it.
-----------------------------------
Possible bug: Sometimes an adblocker will make the like/dislike bars not show up. Simply refresh the page. (It's only happened to me once in 3 days).
-----------------------------------
Possible TODO if demand,
- Show the actual likes/dislikes numbers underneath
- Show like/dislike images
- Customizations of locations options

- (2016-12-18) Keith Mthunzi: Tried a few of these and this one's the best. Just a bit of feedback would be to be able to reposition the bar because it covers the new reb bar youtube put in thumbnails. Regardless the extension works really well.
