Gross, it's too sweet. I'd use Worcestershire, anchovy paste, or just MSG instead, but those don't replace soy sauce as a dipping sauce. You know I don't like fish sauce, but that'd be an option otherwise too for cooking.

This actually looks like it may be a perfect replacement: TAKAHASHI fava beans SHOYU, perfect soy sauce taste, Soy Sauce Alternative – https://a.co/d/gqjtH5q pricey mf tho

I don't think it's too sweet, a lot of dipping sauce recipes using soy sauce call for added sugar.
