Today I decided to port my Firefox extension to Google Chrome.
Meet Youtube Hide Opinion For Chrome.
Turned out, I should change nothing in the extension to make it working in Google Chrome (thanks to Browser Extensions specification)
Now to kill the good feeling I have to say that to publish the extension to WebStore I had to make $5 one-time payment. Pretty symbolic payment but still feels foreign while publishing open source code.
Watching videos on Youtube I’ve noticed I influenced a lot by paying attention to a video rating. For example if rating is negative I initially treat a video as unprofessional or even stupid.
I tried to ignore a video rating but it’s pretty hard so I decided to build a browser extension that should hide the rating.
So meet Youtube hide Opinion the Firefox extension.
As you can see you still can up/down vote a video but you don’t see it’s rating.
