It's better than nothing. Also I'd probably weigh the opinion of people who have the extension higher than of those who don't.
Is it? personally, when i think of "people who want to see the dislike bar" my mind equates that to "people who want to dislike", and that's not a group of people i want to interact with.
To me it wrings more of "people who want to know before they waste 20 minutes whether this video is clickbait, just actually false, rightwing conspiracy theories, or has some massive editing flaw that makes the video pointless.
For that, I prefer DeArrow. Gets you community sourced, informative titles for videos (and removes clickbait thumbnails as well)
Tbh the removal of clickbait thumbnails made YouTube less enjoyable for me. I don't really watch those over the top clickbait youtubers anyway, so I've found that this isn't too big of a deal.
You can turn individual features off, or whitelist YouTubers you like
This is why I use it, also the more people who use it the more accurate it is
