You can no longer see dislikes on videos youtube, which can be useful in determining whether a video is credible or factual. However, some enterprising developers took the mission of allowing users to restore YouTube dislikes. They developed “Return YouTube Dislikes”, a browser plugin that allows you to recover dislikes on YouTube in just a few clicks.
it came out shortly after news Of Google The official is discontinuing viewable counts, and it has continued to work even after Google removed all public data based on dislikes. Currently, the extension can be installed as a native program firefox, Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Opera and Brave.
Firefox and Chrome use native versions of the program, although the other browsers listed are compatible with the Chrome version. Some browsers, such as Edge, may require you to accept extensions from other stores before you can do this.
Plug-in works by combining data already stored youtube Its API has restricted access to the dislike function, as well as extrapolating user behavior. This means that the amount of dislikes on any individual video will be inaccurate, but the ratio is estimated to be close.
Everyone who uses the extension provides data to help establish ratios, which means the extension’s author is collecting information about the videos you watch. Only content creators can see the “real” amount of likes and dislikes their videos receive, and there are plans to make this information available to the public in the future. How accurate this data remains in the long run is determined by how many individuals use and share their data.
YouTube made this choice in response to brigading and mass dislike campaigns directed at certain creators, not because of the quality of the content, but because of the targeted attacks. While this is a genuine concern, the decision also eliminated one of the few indicators used to determine the value of a video on the site.
