Hello, and welcome to my user page. My username is a deliberate, humorous misspelling of the word "seconds." My occupations here include fighting vandalism and updating the page List of most-disliked YouTube videos. Between May 20, 2020, and May 27, 2020, inclusive, I have updated that page once a day, to make up for the times when that page saw a lengthy gap between updates (after April 8, no one edited that page again until April 23). While fifteen days may not seem like much in the grand scheme of things, many videos on the list had their numbers change explosively during that time, especially the ones by channels aimed at young children, such as "Cocomelon" and "Simple Songs."

Update: On November 10, 2021, YouTube rolled out one of, if not the, most controversial and most universally hated changes in its 16-year history. If, like most people, myself included, you have used YouTube in recent months, you undoubtedly know full well that YouTube has hidden the "dislike" counts on all videos. Even so, "Bring Back Dislikes" allowed me to continue updating List of most-disliked YouTube videos until December 13th, when the API was disabled as well. Although even to this day I can see a dislike count with the extension, I have heard and seen that the dislike counts are no longer 100% reliable without the API.
