YouTube Star Rating Extension

I created the extension to solve the problem with YouTube like/dislike rating system (especially since the dislike number was removed from YouTube). My solution is a convenient star rating system in the form of a browser extension that allows you to rate YouTube videos from 1 to 5 stars and see their ratings.

The difference between the rating systems is subtle, yet significant.
*Star rating* - we associate it with quality. If you see a video rated with 5 stars, you will think it is excellent quality.
*Like/dislike rating* - we associate it with preference. If you see a video that received some \"likes\", you will think some people prefer it, without necessarily associating it with quality.

More information about the extension is available on my website https://youtubestarrating.ozbot.si

But this is just the beginning.

As we grow as a community I'll continue to upgrade the extension and bring you more features and a better user experience.
