Ugh, this is even worse now, since the dislikes are hidden.
Those are only using the ratio of likes and disliles of the users using those extensions.
So it can bias in a way that, say (this is an example, idk if this is true), the users of the extension are more "anti-windows" than the general population. So a video on the announcement of a new Windows release, would show as having more dislikes since the ratio of people who dislike Windows is higher.
(That's how I understand the extension anyway, correct me if I'm wrong)
I’d also add DeArrow to remove clickbait thumbnails and titles, and Untrap to completely modify nearly everything, such as removing (hiding, really) shorts, like count, view count, comments altogether, even hiding the subscribe button among many other options.
Depending on your browser, you can look for a “bring back the dislikes” extension. There are usually a few.
Really the only way to make an impact on a video you dislike is to watch as little as possible and do not interact at all. Leave no comment or like/dislike.
Which really sucks, because information like # of dislikes and informative comments are the only real way to determine if the content is worth the time.
