YouTube disabled public dislikes in December 2021. They aren't visible on the video and cannot be accessed through the API except by the uploader. For the purposes of this list, they are inaccessible. Any browser extension claiming to give you dislike data is either making things up or relying on a combination of old data and data generated through that browser extension. What percentage of internet users use that extension? What about competing extensions? Why should we think it's reliable to base on or extrapolate from? It's just somebody's kludge for a feature that no longer exists.
As time goes on, and the real data gets older and older, this page will rely more and more on the browser extension. We already are so bold as to assert the most disliked videos ... without any dislike data about those videos.
Hello, I am the user who started registering the shorts in the list, although I agree to make the historical list, it does not seem so bad to me to trust a chrome extension for this page, what I recommend is to divide the before and after youtube hid the dislikes. In the end, the shorts are very viral, to such a degree that there are already several with more likes, it is not difficult to imagine that recent videos already have millions of dislikes Rob17p (talk) 11:41, 29 March 2023 (UTC)Reply
