show dislikes again on youtube?
i suspected there would be plugins for this. i had my computer/browser running after youtube hid dislike counts.
could still see them until i was forced to shut down during a power outage.
chrome , and firefox have them. is anyone working on one for Pale Moon?

How would a "plugin" be able to offer a server-side feature?

If by "plugins" you mean an extension (read here from "Add-on types" on) ...
No, not to my knowledge.
But there might well be a userscript to do that.
Install Greasemonkey for Pale Moon (userscript manager), then search Greasy Fork.

Re: show dislikes again on youtube?
Google originally just disabled the icon, so it could conceivably be brought back - until they ripped out the entire feature root and branch. There was a Chrome extension being bandied around as a workaround but I doubt whether it or any other hacks will work anymore.

It is extremely unlikely that any currently listed Firefox (web)extension will work on Pale Moon...
Did you know that moral outrage triggers the pleasure centers of the brain? It's unlikely you can actually get addicted to outrage, but there is plausible evidence that you can become strongly predisposed to it.

He probably means for Firefox. I use this userscript for Youtube, among other things it also makes the UI more compact and offers other customizations. Including bringing back the dislike button.

Re: show dislikes again on youtube?
Not very relevant to anyone reading this here then, is it?
Well, if a WE can magically restore it, that means it isn't actually removed (yet) from YT, just hidden. in that case any greasemonkey dabbler can probably restore it too with a script.

Re: show dislikes again on youtube?
sorry, yes i mean extension. i managed to install Greasemoney, and some scripts ; Return YouTube DIslike 0.9.0, Coloured Like/Dislike ratio 1.1, Dislike Estimator 1.1, yet another simple Youtube video likes/dislikes ratio display, and YouTube Restor Dislike Counters 1.1.0.coffeebreak wrote: ↑2022-01-07, 16:54If by "plugins" you mean an extension (read here from "Add-on types" on) ...

Eg: https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts?q=youtube+dislike
trying/enabling them one at a time none seemed to work. i restarted Pale Moon and had a glimmer of hope using 'Return YouTube DIslike'. i saw a dislke of 186. then i noticed every video had a dislike count of 186. even the one of youtube explaining why they got rid of dislike counts. i know that probably is in the millions. another browser restart, and i'm back to just a thumb icon no count.
[edit]thank you
i appreciate the example of it being possible on the client side. thanksMarcus wrote: ↑2022-01-08, 14:59This extension still works
