Return YouTube Dislike
Description from store

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!

So now there's a premium version. I won't be paying for it, I'll probably just stop using the extension if they're complaining about it being expensive to run.
Jaime
Had this since the first week that YouTube removed dislikes. Works well. Sometimes seems to bug out and doesn't show dislikes, but it fixes by itself after about a minute of waiting. Fantastic extension. Must have.

yeap , It's working .. but takes 1/1.5 sec time to show the exact number .. and this is the most honest review ...
Stephen Weiss
doesnt work.
abiola akerele
it does its job very well 5 stars
Ethan Heim
It's good on videos, but I have 1 suggestion, to make the extension work on youtube shorts. When i look at My Youtube shorts, it only says Dislike. Can you add dislike viewing to shorts?

Return YouTube Dislike is an exceptionally useful and well-designed extension that brings back an important layer of transparency to YouTube. By restoring the dislike count, it helps viewers make more informed decisions about the quality and reliability of videos before investing their time. The extension is lightweight, easy to install, and works seamlessly in the background without affecting performance or user experience. It integrates naturally into YouTube’s interface and feels like a native feature rather than an add-on. Highly recommended for casual viewers, professionals, educators, and anyone who values clearer feedback and better content evaluation on YouTube.

This extension is spoofing views via your account and is slowing down your YouTube performance

They also added a feature where you can skip past sponsor segments, very smart idea.

Was working great for a long time and now all the sudden it's not?

It works, but there's a few issues: - I can't adjust video speed on most videos - Some minor buffering - Dislikes don't show on Youtube Shorts unless you put it in a playlist (i.e. Liked Videos) and click it there.
Hanu Nel
Its placing non-subscribed channel's videos in my subscribe list.
Joshua Cox
Caused my youtube page to only load 6-10 videos at a time. After uninstalling it my youtube went back to normal, Used to be a good extension.

sublime
Mark Vannauker
it is causing videos to stutter by stopping the video buffering somehow, the videos play fine when disabling this extension

what about shorts?

I was one of the first to get this addon, It was great for years, able to see dislikes, helped tons avoiding clickbait. Then they got greedy. The advertisement to go premium pops up every youtube page on every video. It was glorious, If a monthly small popup came saying "Donate please" I would have but this...UNSTALL AND AVOID!!!
Robert Bendinelli
Works great, I think.
Martin Reisinger
must have
Adelbert Schicklgruber
Was a good addon before. Yeah, not going to pay for premium.
Mov Link04
Good, I am able to see dislikes.
Nikolas Drumm
This extension is one of my favorites. It does not feel out of place and it is useful
Drew Lustro
Was great for years. Now it's junk adware. Uninstalled and reported.
Ethan Grant
barely works
Rodrigo Ribeiro
Adware. Pop-up an ad for the "premium" version every single time I open the browser...
Jimmy Kultima
Was good until it started opening new pages/links - it is now adware and should be avoided.
Cunty McCuntFace
works maybe 20% of the time.. Pretty pointless.

perfect... just installed this EXT a few minutes ago... now i can see DISLIKES again ... fast and useful !!!!!!

Best one probably ever, we need people to accept their videos are bad and we have the right to see that in advance.

Five Stars for getting around censorship. The only people that pushed youtube to remove the dislike button are the ones pushing narratives that the MAJORITY of the population do not agree with.

The best, absolutely needed.

Doesn't work. Dislike is 0 to videos that I have disliked. Now I have to look for another extension.

Best extension ever now i can see dislikes from now on

It used to be a number on the dislike button. Now it takes up an entire panel by default, which is too much space.
