Ocene za Return YouTube Dislike
Return YouTube Dislike — Dmitry Selivanov
Ocena uporabnika Voytash
Ocenjeno z 3 od 5
— Voytash, pred 2 mesecemaThis used to be my favourite extension, but a recent UI change made it less convenient.
The dislike count is now displayed instead of the dislike icon, which means you can no longer tell at a glance whether you've already disliked a video. The like button still changes appearance when selected, but the dislike button no longer does because the icon is replaced by the number.
For comparison:
- YouTube Dislike Counter keeps both icons, but places the dislike count far to the right of the rating buttons, which looks rather awkward.
- Dislikes in YouTube™ has the best placement of the dislike count (right next to the dislike icon), but shifts the entire action bar too far to the left, causing spacing issues.
Each extension gets something right, but unfortunately none of them is currently perfect. If this one restored the original dislike icon while keeping the counter, it would easily be the best option again.
Update: I accidentally discovered that using this extension together with Dislikes in YouTube™ often results in the best overall layout: both thumb icons remain visible, the dislike counter stays next to the dislike button, and the action bar is no longer shifted to the left. Unfortunately, this combination is inconsistent and sometimes breaks after refreshing the page (the dislike icon may disappear again and the counter may display a leading zero), so it's more of a lucky workaround than a reliable solution.

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 only uses 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.
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.

Odgovor razvijalca
objavljeno ob pred eno uroDanke für dein Feedback. Es tut mir leid, dass du wegen der Erweiterung ein ungutes Gefühl hast.
RYD hat den Umgang mit deinen Daten nicht geändert. Geändert hat sich, wie Mozilla diese Berechtigungen bezeichnet - nicht, was die Erweiterung mit deinen Daten macht.
Die Erweiterung nutzt nur die Daten, die sie braucht, um Dislikes anzuzeigen und Stimmen zu zählen.
Ihre Website-Berechtigungen gelten für YouTube und ihre eigene API unter returnyoutubedislikeapi.com. RYD liest keine anderen Websites aus, und diese Website-Berechtigungen können nicht genutzt werden, um auf sie zuzugreifen.
Personenbezogene Daten - die von RYD zufällig generierte, anonyme Benutzer-ID, mit der Stimmen gezählt werden. Das ist nicht dein Google- oder YouTube-Konto.
Surfaktivität - das Öffnen des nächsten YouTube-Videos, damit die Erweiterung dessen Video-ID senden und die neue Dislike-Anzahl abrufen kann.
Website-Inhalte - zum Beispiel die sichtbare Like-Anzahl, die bei der Berechnung der geschätzten Dislike-Zahlen hilft.
Website-Aktivität - das Klicken auf Like oder Dislike.
Noch einmal: Hier geht es um Aktivitäten auf YouTube. Die Erweiterung verfolgt nicht alles, was du im Internet machst - mit diesen Website-Berechtigungen kann sie das schlicht nicht.
Die neuen Bezeichnungen klingen beunruhigend, geben der Erweiterung aber keinen Zugriff auf weitere Websites.
RYD ist Open Source, du kannst dir also ansehen, wie es funktioniert: https://github.com/Anarios/return-youtube-dislike - Ocenjeno z 5 od 5— Dex Luther, pred 2 uramaIt's amazing people take the time to leave a 1-star review, but don't bother to take that time to look anything up.
It's still sad that we even need an extension like this, but it's not doing what the 1-star reviews will have you think it does.Odgovor razvijalca

Odgovor razvijalca
objavljeno ob pred 4 uramiYeah, it will be addressed later. Mozilla forbids data collection in private windows - which means you can't submit likes\dislikes in a private window. It isn't a problem, but requires additional coding, which I didn't have time for. - Ocenjeno z 1 od 5— Uporabnik Firefoxa 18924088, pred 4 uramiRemoved this extension when out of nowhere it tried forcing me to agree to invasive data collection.

I was scared and skeptical at first, when I noticed what it was asking for seemed like invasive permissions. After taking literally seconds to research why/what had changed, I found out what was going on — nothing more than Mozilla just changing the wording of their policies.
This add-on is still safe to use and does not collect any sensitive/personal information about you or your browsing.
P.S. If you think this review was written with AI because of the em-dash, there's no hope for you :-)Odgovor razvijalca
