If you've ever watched a YouTube video and wondered how many viewers pressed the thumbs-down button, you're not alone. The YouTube dislike count was once a publicly visible metric that gave viewers an immediate signal about a video's quality, accuracy, and trustworthiness. In November 2021, YouTube made the controversial decision to hide the dislike counter from public view, citing concerns about coordinated dislike campaigns targeting smaller creators. While content creators can still see their own dislike data in YouTube Studio, the rest of us were left in the dark.
That's where tools like ours — and the open-source Return YouTube Dislike project — step in. The Return YouTube Dislike API (returnyoutubedislike.com) reconstructs dislike estimates by combining historical data collected before November 2021 with ongoing crowdsourced data from users of the browser extension. The result is an estimated YouTube dislike viewer that gives you a reasonable approximation of the true dislike count for most videos.
Our YouTube Dislike Count Checker wraps this API in a clean, bulk-friendly interface. Instead of checking one video at a time, you can paste up to 50 URLs and get the likes and dislikes, view counts, ratings, and like/dislike ratio for all of them simultaneously. This is incredibly useful for researchers, YouTubers scoping out competitors, marketers evaluating influencer content, educators vetting tutorial quality, and anyone who wants a more honest picture of public sentiment before watching or sharing a video.
Understanding the dislike counter matters more than many people realize. A video with 1 million views but a 60% dislike ratio tells a very different story than one with 50,000 views and 97% likes. The like to dislike ratio YouTube metric has historically been one of the best proxies for gauging whether a video's content actually delivers on its promise — or whether it's misleading, low-quality, or outright harmful. With YouTube's dislike hiding policy, this transparency was stripped away from users who relied on it for everyday content vetting.
To use our YouTube dislike checker, simply paste one or more video URLs into the input box — we support youtube.com/watch, youtu.be short links, youtube.com/shorts, youtube.com/embed, and raw 11-character video IDs. Click "Check Dislikes," and within seconds you'll see a per-video card showing the thumbnail, title, YouTube dislike viewer, like count, total views, and a visual like/dislike ratio bar. Bulk results can be exported to CSV for further analysis in spreadsheet tools. This free online YouTube dislike counter requires no login, no API key, and no extensions — just paste and check.
YouTube removed the public dislike count in November 2021 to protect creators from coordinated dislike attacks and to reduce harassment directed at smaller channels. However, the Return YouTube Dislike API uses historical data and crowdsourced browser extension inputs to estimate dislike figures for most videos.
The data is sourced from the Return YouTube Dislike project, which combines archived API data from before November 2021 with ongoing browser extension crowdsourcing and statistical extrapolation. For older viral videos the data can be highly accurate; for very new or niche videos it is an estimate and should be interpreted accordingly.
Our bulk checker supports up to 50 YouTube URLs per batch. Simply paste each URL on a new line and click Check. For larger datasets, run multiple batches.
We support all standard YouTube URL formats: youtube.com/watch?v=, youtu.be/, youtube.com/shorts/, youtube.com/embed/, youtube.com/v/, and bare 11-character Video IDs. If the URL contains a valid YouTube video ID, it will work.
