Dislikes in YouTube™ Firefox

Dislikes in YouTube™

The extension returns the ability to see how many people YouTube video have put dislikes.

Features & Capabilities

Dislikes in YouTube™ is a handy Chrome extension that restores the ability to view dislike counts on YouTube videos. Since YouTube removed the public dislike count feature, users lost an important feedback metric. This extension brings that metric back by displaying the number of dislikes alongside videos, similar to the previous YouTube layout.

It provides accurate dislike data by combining archived YouTube dislike information and real-time input from users of the extension. Installation is simple with no additional settings required; once installed, dislike counts immediately appear on all YouTube videos you watch. Dislikes in YouTube™ empowers users to make informed decisions and improves transparency when watching content on YouTube.

User Reviews

Dislikes in YouTube™ is praised for reliably restoring YouTube's dislike counts on desktop Firefox without complicated setup, making it one of the few functional extensions after YouTube's 2023 update. However, some users experience issues such as video page freezes and limited functionality on non-desktop devices. Overall, it is regarded as a working solution despite occasional performance inconsistencies on certain videos or devices.
Pros
  • Effectively restores the dislike count on YouTube, especially after it was removed in October 2023.
  • Works consistently on desktop versions of YouTube without requiring complex tweaks or workarounds.
  • Considered one of the few or the only extension currently functioning to display dislikes on YouTube.
  • Has positive feedback regarding stability and usability, especially on Firefox.
Cons
  • Some users report that the add-on can lock up or freeze certain YouTube video pages, affecting playback (audio may continue but video freezes).
  • The extension appears to only work reliably on desktop versions, limiting usefulness on mobile or other views.
  • A few reports indicate it stopped working for some users or on certain devices (e.g., Pixel).
Recent reviews
This extension has my favourite implementation of the dislike counter. It keeps both the Like and Dislike icons visible and displays the dislike count exactly where it belongs, right next to the dislike button. That's by far the most natural-looking approach. Unfortunately, there's one major UI issue: the entire action bar below the video is shifted much too far to the left, almost touching the channel information and Subscribe button. It makes the layout look noticeably off. There's also a tiny cosmetic issue: the spacing between the dislike icon and its counter is a little too narrow. For comparison: - Return YouTube Dislike replaces the dislike icon with the counter, making it impossible to tell whether you've disliked a video. - YouTube Dislike Counter keeps the original icons but places the dislike counter far away from the rating buttons. Fixing the action bar alignment would make this my clear favourite. Update: I found an interesting workaround: using this extension together with Return YouTube Dislike often fixes the action bar alignment while preserving both thumb icons and the dislike counter. Sadly, this doesn't work consistently and may break after refreshing the page, so it's currently more of an accidental compatibility quirk than a proper solution.
