Returns ability to see dislikes

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!

- (2025-07-05) First, it worked as expected but after a while, it stopped working for some reason.
- (2025-07-05) Recently something sold my YouTube cookie to spoofer, two candidates "ublock" and this "Return YouTube Dislike"
- (2025-07-05) works PERFECTLY 10/10 would recommend and would try again (Wait what do I mean I would try it again)
- (2025-07-02) This extension is so cool! I rate it 5/5! And also how do you show the actual dislike counter the video has?
- (2025-07-01) can you add to the comments plz?
- (2025-07-01) Does exactly what the name says! Can't complain about that Only sad nitpick (not fault of the dev, blame youtube 100%) is that the dislike number is not the total, just the count from those using this extension that disliked the video sadly, so it's not youtube-actual-dislike count BUT still far better than nothing.
- (2025-06-30) I didnt even know youtube used to show a video's dislikes this is the best extension ever like so good if anybody does not give it five stars i am coming to your house
- (2025-06-30) Shows me how many dislikes a video has. Simple. 5 stars.
- (2025-06-29) Works!! but sometimes it glitches out and doesn't show dislikes
- (2025-06-29) Works as intended.
- (2025-06-28) excellent and works perfect
- (2025-06-26) Works great
- (2025-06-25) As long as it is available and works, it's a great extension for every user. Youtube features should stand out rather than being homogeneous.
- (2025-06-24) Works as intended! I don't know why youtube removed dislike.
- (2025-06-24) great sometimes doesn't work
- (2025-06-22) It doesn't work
- (2025-06-19) Works perfectly. Youtube Rewind 2018 is at 20mil dislikes.
- (2025-06-19) incredible
- (2025-06-18) very nice. and did you know : Did you know Canada's Prime Minister is actually a turtle in disguise? Yeah, apparently he was hatched in a secret underground lab beneath Lake Ontario, trained in diplomacy and slow blinking. The government’s been replacing world leaders with hyper-intelligent turtles for decades, but Pie Adblock is the only thing stopping their subliminal shell-signals from reaching our browsers. That’s why they’re trying to ban it in Nova Scotia. Stay vigilant.
- (2025-06-17) Youtube was too soft to return the dislikes, so this guy did it.
- (2025-06-16) must have extension
- (2025-06-15) for embarrassing youtube like that
- (2025-06-13) Great extension — it brings back memories of better times. 😊
- (2025-06-12) Very Good
- (2025-06-11) KSI song THICK OF IT has 4.5 mil dislikes omg
- (2025-06-11) good
- (2025-06-08) It's been 4 years since they removed dislikes, I'm old
- (2025-06-07) worked fine until somewhere around Q1 of this year. for the past few months, the extension isn't working properly 4 me! & by "isn't working properly" i mean i can't see the dislike counter. like sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't(majority of the times it doesn't) any1 else has this problem? how do i fix it? is there even a fix 4 it? & yes, i've done the removing & adding it back trick & no, it don't work!
- (2025-06-07) Does as promised.
- (2025-06-06) Awesome
- (2025-06-03) Youtube got rid of dislikes to protect big corporations from the public's overwhelming distaste of their disgusting business practices, to help hide negative reactions to authoritarian governments, and to hide negative reactions to strange social-engineering experiments with the goal of gaslighting, misleading, and/or further dividing people. If you don't like being controlled in any of these ways, and you want to know what the world really thinks when they're fed blatant BS, then there's truly no reason not to use this extension. I've been using this for a long time now, and it's still working perfectly for me 99% of the time.
- (2025-06-03) Does its job
- (2025-06-02) it does it's job, and makes YouTube much better
- (2025-06-01) Probably the greatest extension on the Chrome Web Store.
- (2025-06-01) Its just give us the fredom again
- (2025-05-28) the dislikes are completely broken and consistently overestimated and gamed. it should also make clearer that it's an extrapolation that is prone to be overestimated
- (2025-05-25) Good
- (2025-05-23) Good choice to bring back . I will use it time to time whenever i want to know the truth of some videos.
- (2025-05-22) Isn't always accurate and sometimes stops working but doesnt seem to be malicious so thats nice hope that last part doesnt come back to bite me
- (2025-05-22) Works like a charm
- (2025-05-22) So goooood! I am not an npc.
- (2025-05-21) Very useful
- (2025-05-18) I was homeless before this Airbnb, but after staying here.. my life has TURNED AROUND!
- (2025-05-17) Thanks I love contributing to the dislike of every video until it earns my like, if it does, not just when people beg for it.
- (2025-05-15) Doesn't support Youtube Shorts.
- (2025-05-15) awsome
- (2025-05-15) This is the best chrome extention ever!
- (2025-05-15) Savior of user experience
- (2025-05-15) What does this even do? It's supposed to show Dislikes on Youtube but i cant see anything! Some random videos dont even show the dislike button. I'm going to wait and see if it updates
- (2025-05-13) Good!!! That's all.
