    The other day I saw a 4 star review that said “I never rate 5 stars” and then had a bunch of positive things to say. Looked at their other reviews and, sure enough, there were a ton of 4 star reviews that started with “I never give 5 stars”.

    I’m still irrationally angry about. Like, why?! Why fuck up the rating system? Are you worried about star inflation?

      Probably the “nothing is perfect” mentality, which doesn’t understand that 5 stars or a 10/10 doesn’t mean something is perfect because, as they said, nothing is. All ratings are there to be used!
