Just a random thought dump about the rating system

People on this site are getting better at rating! I still try to avoid anything that is below a 9,0 rating since most of them are still questionable to a certain extent. I mostly see this improvement in rating with mangas but the manwha/manhua are also improving. I'm glad nobody is giving every piece 5 stars anymore, the improvement may be little but we'll get there step by step.

    I hope it is improving. I haven't noticed much. And I understand everyone has a different rating system but I do sometimes side eye when people give 5/5 to a smut no plot SA poorly executed no pace story in my mind I know everyone has different standards but I'm also thinking, really?

    this godforsaken rating system... (╬ ̄皿 ̄)凸
    i genuinely don't think people are getting better at rating too many good stories that have bad ratings and bad stories that have good ratings
    the main problem doesn't lie in the readers though tbh ofc there still is an effect but the rating system itself is so heavily flawed
    we literally only have 5 options, and the difference between each of them is ambiguous
    let's say i read a pretty good story! now, i'm stuck between 5 stars and 4 stars. which one do i pick?
    4 stars = 8.0 and 5 stars = 10.0
    do i think its so bad as to giving it a 4? no.
    do i think its so good that it should get full marks? NO!
    i wish we could rate with 0.1s it would make it sm better sigh
    even 0.5s would make it a tad bit better...
    ofc it cant ever be perfect but i just skekqdb sorry why am i so mad about everything these days ╥﹏╥
