YouTube Video Dislike Count

In November 2021, YouTube decided to make the dislike count for videos private. This extension makes it possible to see the dislike count even though YouTube removed it.

This extension is safe to install, and you can confirm that by checking the source code at https://github.com/youtubedislikecount/YouTube-Video-Dislike-Count/tree/main/Extension.

Update

As of 2021/12/13, this project is no longer maintained.

Usage

1. Download and install the extension from https://youtubedislikecount.github.io/.

2. Head over to https://console.cloud.google.com/marketplace/product/google/youtube.googleapis.com?q=search&referrer=search&supportedpurview=project and click the Enable button

3. Log into a Google Account

4. Then on the left side menu, click on the Credentials button

5. Next, click the Create Credentials button and select the API Key option

6. Copy the API key
7. Click on the extension icon and paste in the API Key, then press enter

Now whenever you watch a video on YouTube, it should display the dislike count of that video.
