This means that the number of dislikes on any given video will not be correct, but the ratio should be somewhat accurate.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-779669\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/youtube_like_dislike.png?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"Viewing a YouTube video's like to dislike ratio\" width=\"650\" height=\"322\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Everyone who uses the extension contributes data to help determine the ratio, which means that the extension author is gathering information about the videos you watch. Only content creators can see the \u201ctrue\u201d number of likes and dislikes their videos receive, and there are plans to allow creators to share this information with the extension in the future.<\/p>\n<p>How accurate much of this data remains over the long term depends on how many people use and contribute their data. Tech YouTube channel LinusTechTips <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Nz9b0oJw69I\">compared<\/a> its own counts with counts supplied by the extension and found that they were mostly accurate.<\/p>\n<lite-youtube videoid=\"Nz9b0oJw69I\" style=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/Nz9b0oJw69I\/hqdefault.jpg');\">\n<button type=\"button\" class=\"lty-playbtn\"><br \/>\n<span class=\"lyt-visually-hidden\">Play Video<\/span><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/lite-youtube>\n<p>This is about as good as can be hoped for when extrapolating values based on behavior and historic data.

While this is a valid concern, the move also knocked out one of the only metrics for gauging a video\u2019s worth on the platform.<\/p>\n<p>YouTube now recommends that viewers resort to the comments instead.
