## The Story
On November 10th, 2021, Google [announced](https://blog.youtube/news-and-events/update-to-youtube/) that the YouTube dislike count would be removed.
Additionally, the `dislike` field in the YouTube API was [removed](https://support.google.com/youtube/thread/134791097/update-to-youtube-dislike-counts) on December 13th, 2021, removing any ability to judge the quality of content before watching.
## What it Does
With the removal of dislike stats from the YouTube API, our backend switched to using a combination of scraped dislike stats, estimates extrapolated from extension user data.

## Why it Matters
You can learn more at our website at: [returnyoutubedislike.com](https://www.returnyoutubedislike.com/)
## API documentation
You can view all documentation on our website.

## HELP WANTED
We have an issue which is happening to a low percentage of Chrome users. service worker (ex background script) goes to Inactive state and doesn't wake up even when youtube tab is reopened. Only switching the extension off and on in extensions tab helps. This looks like a Chrome manifestv3 bug - so if anyone knows a good workaround - please open an issue\create a PR.
Looks like its [this bug in chromium](https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1271154), and there is no good workaround. If anyone is aware of a workaounds - please contact.
