Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

But doesn't that extension just assume dislikes is some proportion of likes (1/3 comes to mind but I'm not sure why)? The whole point of dislikes is knowing ahead of time that the video is a pile of shite, for example if it's got 20 likes and 200 dislikes it's probably not worth bothering with. But if it's got 20 likes and, say, 7 dislikes based on dislikes=likes/3, that gives you no useful information.
Now if that extension queries some API that returns the hidden 200 dislikes, THEN it'd be useful.
It does a pretty good job with the ratio id say just give it a try?if a video is like 75% or lower it's usually a pretty shit video or the person has some wack views. I've seen a few videos too where it's as low as ~25%
