Returns ability to see dislikes
Return YouTube Dislike restores the ability to see dislikes on YouTube.
Starting December 13th 2021, YouTube removed the ability to see dislikes from their API.
This extension aims to restore power to users by using a combination of archived like and dislike data, as well as the likes and dislikes made by extension users to show the most accurate ratings.
Currently has almost a billion videos data stored before December 13th, 2021
Actively growing and keeping up to date with uploads after December 13th, 2021
The more users that use the extension, the more accurate it will be
Unpopular videos uploaded after December 13th, 2021 may have less accurate data shown than more popular videos.
This extension is currently in an active development phase, so if you experience any issues, don’t hesitate to report them on our GitHub page or in our Discord server.
More features to come soon!

- I understand the need for funding but I disagree with payment enforcement for a service that was free.

- "Returns ability to see dislikes Return YouTube Dislike restores the ability to see dislikes on YouTube." Not accurate, this app gives a guestimation, not a accurate number. Sorry Dmitrii Selivanov, fix the way you say this and I'd be happy to change. I believed the numbers and followed a video that probably has hundreds of downvotes when your app said "3"... Now I see the hundred plus negative comments and statements around "if you listen to this lady, you will ruin your coat" and guess what I did... I ruined my coat, when back to the video, still saw "3" and then went to the comments.... You need to tell your users this is a estimation "~" means estimate so you could add that ot the UI/UX. But also your wording in the top of your extension reinforces this mindset. So I trusted the app, based on what it shared, which was misleading, and now have a ruined coat that costs a lot, right before winter, and I dont have a lot of extra money to fix it. I want to sue you, but I dont have money for that either. I love what you did, but the fraud is unacceptable!

- £4 a month for this? Hahahahahahahahah! Absolutely scandalous. Pay-walling simple features in a web browser extension that is hyper specific in use? This is a clear sign the app is on the enshittification route. Thanks for the good work so far but shame you have lost your mind.

- Saw the recent controversy, so decided to chip in with my review. Using this extension for a few years now. Don't listen to resent negative reviews - those are chronically online people looking to get mad at anything and everything they can. There's no adware or malware. It simply shows you a banner with a premium option when you open a video. You can easily close it and it won't pop up again, you have to do it once, and all the free options are still free. That's it. That's literally the whole controversy. Literally nothing changed with the extension. I don't know why people acting so disgusting just because of a single banner from a dev asking for support. Please do better, people - you using the product for free, so at least try to be nicer and understanding. To the dev; thank you for your great work!

- I don't have a problem with this useful plugin asking for support (running an outrageously popular database API has a cost), but is the nag once a week or something? If so, that's a bit much.

- Price =/= Functionality. When I first heared that small free addon will be now "Patreonized" with monthly subsctiption I thought it was a joke - but no - that madness really happen :D

- Recently adds a garbage looking ad banner. If you still want to see dislikes, find a script from greasyfork instead.

- The extension recently added a premium option that adds some extra analytics. This is fine and I have no problem with, as it is a way to make it function without taking anything away from your existing user base. The problem is in how it was communicated, meaning by way of a banner ad right on the youtube page. I'm sure I don't need to state how this can be annoying, especially when you consider that the venn diagram of people who use this extension and people who use some form of ad-blocker is basically a perfect circle

- Not sure why everyone is suddenly losing-their-minds over the recent-update? The extension is still free: go to any YouTube video, and you will still see the like and dislike counts, just as before. But to keep the extension going, they've created some premium extras some can choose to pay for. After the extension updated, it opened a new tab to advertise these, but after you close it, it never re-appears. Likewise a panel appears on the right of YouTube videos: but there is an X in the top-right you can click to close it, and again, it never re-appears. Just do those two clicks and the extension works just as it did before...

- Used to be basic and work just fine. Recently an update started messing with the youtube layout adding unnecessary popups and bs statistics and causing videos to not load. Remove this garbage.

- Get rid of the annoying ads. Thanks! 🌸

- Introduced ads, forced people to view those. If the service "costs too much" don't offer it. Having a way for some people to pay for more stats is fine, bothering free users is not and should be 10x tested before rollout.
- Anonymous
- While I disagree with the way the ads were introduced, I understand it was mostly a mistake and that the cost of operating the extension is probably very expensive and becoming unsustainable. I will continue to use the extension as long as what was originally free remains free and the ads are introduced differently. Hopefully people understand where the developer is coming from and continue to support the extension.

- Turning a simple extension into a money-grab machine with fullscreen advertising of the "premium" analytics and a banner under every single YouTube video you open, is disgusting. This is a literal abuse of the changelog and pure greed.

- Premium features added after obtaining 6 million users. Untrustworthy developer.
