[–] scala@lemmy.ml 26 points 9 months ago (2 children) Funny enough the dislike button is there but hidden. You can get extensions that show the thumbs down button and how many clicked it. permalink fedilink source hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] The_Picard_Maneuver@piefed.world [S] 25 points 9 months ago (1 child) I've wondered about those. I always assumed they'd just show the down votes by others with the same extension. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] tehmics@lemmy.world 21 points 9 months ago (1 child) Yes but extrapolated permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] 87Six@lemmy.zip 23 points 9 months ago (2 children) In my experience, the extension is INCREDIBLY good. Whenever I get a shady video, it has dislikes, and normal videos almost never have any significant amount of dislikes. They're as accurate as they can be but it's more than enough to be useful. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] mirshafie@europe.pub 13 points 9 months ago (1 child) The dislike button would be a godsend with all this ai slop. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] 87Six@lemmy.zip 4 points 9 months ago It is. Tho thankfully AI never makes it's way into my feed. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Yerbouti@sh.itjust.works 5 points 9 months ago I can confirm. Really useful, I almost forgot it's suppose to be hiden. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Nangijala@feddit.dk 8 points 9 months ago (1 child) Apparently the extensions aren't reliable at all. I saw a video at one point where a guy went over why you cannot trust the extensions and how the numbers are pure fiction, but I forget the exact reasons. I think one example was that the same video would have vastly differnet numbers of down votes depending on the person with the extension. Something something confirmation bias. For me, it doesn't really matter. I still down vote when I dislike a video. They may not count my vote at all, but I still do it out of stubbornness. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Ironfacebuster@lemmy.world 10 points 9 months ago They actually do count it but it's only visible to the uploader Also, from what I understand about specifically ReturnYoutubeDislikes it counts dislikes FROM people using the extension and uses that to extrapolate from the visible like count. I haven't seen the video though so it's definitely possible that's all bunk permalink fedilink source parent
