von Shadowbane1992, vor 3 TagenFirst time writing a review here, Firefox changing things and creating a popup I can understand isn't a fault of extension developers; However, now I'm seeing BS like "premium for raw likes and dislikes."
I didn't download this to be advertised some nonsense. There are other extensions that do the same thing, so this particular one doesn't need to clog my day to day with unnecessities.
EDIT/REPLY: No, it is not a win-win. When I look and see some ad in place of what I'm used to seeing, you've made it invasive. Do what other developer's do and have a 1 time popup upon install that says "consider donating to keep it alive!" And leave it at that.
People have Ad Blockers for a Reason. Respect it.

> EDIT/REPLY:Do what other developer's do and have a 1 time popup upon install that says "consider donating to keep it alive!" And leave it at that.
That is pretty much what it is. It's a one time changelog on update install. But I wanted to give something back for donations.
Closing that changelog (that only appears on browser restart, so the least intrusive time I hoped - as all extension changelogs do) is just one click
> Do what other developer's do
This extension likely has the largest database and traffic load of all extensions in the store. I.e. the highest costs to run
> There are other extensions that do the same thing
They all use my API. So if this extension dies - they all die too. This was one update message over 5 years of existence of the extension. Due to costs starting to exceed donations.
Unfortunatelly hosting ~12TB database with a load of ~20 million unique daily users costs some money. Donations died down and the extension would run out of money to function.
Existence of a new premium feature doesn't affect you in any way - you can still use it for free as you did before - and somebody else will pay to cover your costs. Isn't it a win-win?

- Bewertet mit 5 von 5 Sternenvon i can't read, vor 2 StundenWhen I first saw the extension requiring "new" permissions like PII, the first thing I did was check the reviews if anyone had any information on why these new perms were required and if it'd be better to uninstall.
I was not expecting that person to be the developer of the extension, with a full in-depth explanation of why each new perm was needed, if the extension was trusted, and information on why the permissions were rebranded.
This is the first time I've EVER seen a developer take the time to read negative reviews, explain, and attempt to help with any issues. I've been using this extension for a while, and I could tell this project was difficult to maintain just based on how it was made.
You are perhaps the greatest developer I've seen purely for actually listening to what people had to say and addressing the constant 1 star reviews with actual notes. I created an account purely to say that this extension has been great for quite a while now, and keeping servers alive with little monetization, pushing out updates, taking time to read feedback, addressing questions, it's all extremely impressive and genuinely makes me want to support the project. Cheers mate.Antwort des Entwicklers

RYD hasn’t changed how it handles your data. What changed is how Mozilla labels these permissions - not what the extension does with your data.
The extension uses only the data it needs to show dislikes and count votes.
Its site permissions cover YouTube and its own API at returnyoutubedislikeapi.com. RYD doesn’t read other websites, and these site permissions cannot be used to access them.
Here’s what those permissions mean:
Personally identifiable information - RYD’s randomly generated, anonymous user ID, used to count votes. This isn’t your Google or YouTube account.
Browsing activity - opening the next YouTube video, so the extension can send its video ID and fetch the new dislike count.
Website content - things like the visible like count, which helps calculate dislike estimates.
Website activity - clicking Like or Dislike.
Again, this is about YouTube activity. The extension isn’t watching everything you do across the internet - it simply can’t do that with these site permissions.
The new labels sound scary, but they don’t give the extension access to more websites.

i think the best course of action would just be to leave this addon for now and come back when this issue has been resolvedAntwort des Entwicklers

- Bewertet mit 1 von 5 Sternenvon Uruxul, vor 11 StundenDatamine your butthole. And your excuse about "extension is actually recommended by Mozilla" is bullshit - because if was recomended BEFORE this update, so label just got transfered further and means nothing. Its not warranty of addon update being checked by mozilla team before publishing.

geschrieben am vor 3 StundenRecommended extensions go through a thorough review to publish an update. - Bewertet mit 4 von 5 Sternenvon Shin-Cataro, vor 11 StundenI Really hope its just a big misunderstanding, as you already answered all those many dislikes i had to just give this one 4/5 Stars, one star less, because it looks so horrible, i really do not like Datamining and i really want to trust you Mr. Dev... soooo I’ve told Mozilla about it, in the hopes that the wording gets corrected to match what the extension is actually doing.
No one in their right mind would opt into data mining like this, even if it’s just the appearance of it being wrong.
Especially because many extensions these days are going in that direction, data is the oil of the modern technocracy, so to speak.
If the concerns are unfounded, I hope you can clarify that soon Mr. Dev. If not, well… i just hope we still can trust you.Antwort des Entwicklers

- Bewertet mit 4 von 5 Sternenvon Firefox-Benutzer 18691224, vor 11 StundenThis is definitely a issue of communication, because people are just so tired of their information being stolen that generic tags to do a feature has everyone on high alert.
The plugin being open source and the dev responding to questions and criticism is what saved it. If a popup for the update happened before its update to explain what it actually does, I feel this would have been avoided.Antwort des Entwicklers
geschrieben am vor 3 StundenI didn't know how this would look to end users. This is pretty new in Firefox. - Bewertet mit 1 von 5 Sternenvon gf22, vor 11 StundenThe dev is trying to gaslight people in the replies to low star reviews saying that nothing about the extension has change and the reason it is asking for more permissions is just because Mozilla changed how they label the permissions but that's a flat out lie.
As many others have pointed out the add-on is now gathering unique identifiable user data, there is no way to prove that he is selling user data but it is the most likely explanation.
The other way the developer keeps trying to gaslight people is by claiming "Clearly nothing changed since we are a recommended add-on" knowing full well that the Recommended badge DOES NOT get reviewed with every new update. I have reported the new practices from this dev to Mozilla and I encourage everybody else do to the same.Antwort des Entwicklers
