Favoree aims to be Rotten Tomatoes of YouTube channels

[Jan]

This website wants to be the Rotten Tomatoes of YouTube channels

A Reddit user has created a website that is being dubbed the "Rotten Tomatoes of YouTube" for allowing users to review channels on the platform using a five-star rating mechanism.

Rotten Tomatoes is one of the Internet's most popular websites for movie and TV show reviews.

All of this because of youtube's kak. And how long before you've got to watch a forced ad before you can see the ratings of your favourite youtube ad riddled shows on this new site?

I don't see any Youtube ads due to ad-blocking plugins etc.

Fair enough. I do know. I don't get any value.

So ignoring all the ranting...

This is actually an interesting idea because of course Youtube "recommended" algorithm is self-reinforcing so you do miss a lot of good content on the platform if it falls just outside of the algorithms determination of what you want to watch.

Might give this site a look see a bit later and see if anything interesting and new pops up.

Couple it with a "reputation" based algorithm, and some or other incentivized feedback, you might end up with a credible review.

Oh without a doubt...

But a score based on users reviews is a step in the right direction in some ways....

Good idea for a site. I forsee review bombing though.

Until the bots take over and either review bomb or inflate ratings.
