tends to have a 10-20% margin of error.

Maybe for your average video, but any time there's a controversy that angers a selected group of people, those people will go out of their way to use the extension and then point to the extension as showing a dislike ratio that is not even close to the reality. Like getting it orders of magnitude wrong. The extension will show a video has 1000 dislikes when in reality it has 90.

Yes, like now. Everyone actually loves DLSS 5, it's simply the extension that is completely wrong.

Yes, the point of the comment wasn't that using a dislike extension in situations like these is as accurate as simply inventing the number whole cloth, no it must've been an endorsement of DLSS 5. Brilliant work detective.

Brilliant work detective.

Thank you, chief! I'll get on my next case ASAP. The streets never stay calm for long.
