DislikeLens από Tamim Hasan

DislikeLens shows the real dislike count on YouTube videos and Shorts — right where the rating buttons are — so you can judge a video before you watch it.

YouTube removed public dislike counts, and without them it is hard to tell a genuinely useful video from one that everyone regretted clicking. DislikeLens brings that context back with a small, fast, privacy-friendly add-on.

WHAT YOU GET
• Real dislike counts on every watch page, video, and Short
• A compact like-to-dislike ratio pill next to the rating buttons
• A visual ratio bar so you can read the mood of a video at a glance
• Optional toolbar badge with the current video's dislike count
• A polished popup with full stats, likes, dislikes, and percentage
• A full preferences page to enable or disable each feature
• Automatic updates as you browse — no page refresh needed
• Light and dark themes that match your system
• A 30-minute cache per video to keep requests low

HOW IT WORKS
DislikeLens reads the video ID from the YouTube page you are already on and asks the open Return YouTube Dislike API for that video's publicly archived dislike count. Nothing else is sent. No account, no sign-in, no analytics, no ads, no tracking.

PRIVACY
• No personal data collected, sold, or shared
• No browsing history stored
• Preferences saved locally with the browser's storage API
• Requests go only to returnyoutubedislikeapi.com over HTTPS
• Full privacy policy included with the add-on

PERMISSIONS, EXPLAINED
• storage — remembers your preferences
• activeTab — reads the current tab's URL only when you open the popup
• Host access to returnyoutubedislikeapi.com — fetches dislike counts
• Content script runs only on youtube.com

DislikeLens is an independent project. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by YouTube or Google. Dislike data is provided by the community-run Return YouTube Dislike project.
