Return YouTube Dislike

Returns ability to see dislikes

Return YouTube Dislike is a Chrome extension that brings back the ability to view dislike counts on YouTube videos, a feature removed by YouTube on December 13th, 2021. By leveraging a massive archive of nearly a billion videos' like and dislike data, combined with live data from extension users, it provides the most accurate ratings possible.

The extension continuously updates to include new uploads and relies on user participation to enhance data accuracy, especially for unpopular videos uploaded after the API changes. Actively developed and supported via GitHub and Discord, Return YouTube Dislike empowers users by restoring transparency and insight into YouTube video feedback.
