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%
