After the app rating was down to about 2.8 stars on Google Play Store recently, it is now at 4.1 stars. Latest ratings seem to be from September 2022 though.
Looks like they’ve deleted all the 1-star ratings that had been recently added.
2.9 in the UK.
3.3 for me
It’s a 2.7 for me here in Canada
2.7 in Germany
Although honestly, who cares
just checked, yupp 2.7.
This depends on region and version for your device. The rating for me is 3.0
2.9 in uk. Most reviews i see are negative towards the app not the service. So i think it would be wrong for google to adjust the scores.
The ratings are region-dependent, it doesn’t have a 4.1 worldwide.
3.7, Portugal, Android.
4.8 on the App Store… dozens of recent comments (pretty much all) are one star, but I guess it is averaging years of ratings…
2.7 stars for me, Germany as well, but with English UI.
Ugh…4.8
App Store North America
Netherlands:
It seems to me like it’s the US which is severely lacking in customer protections, allowing the Playstore to make deals with Reddit to fudge the ratings.

How come they delete 1 star reviews for review bombing, but clearly 5 star bot reviews are fair game?
because the company benefits from those.
Anyone tried review bombing with 5 star reviews and scathing comments to see if their system kicks in to remove all fake 5 star reviews in the last x hours? Or is this a manual removal of reviews they do?
2.9 for me in France
3.0 USA. I just took a shit in a paperbag and lit it on fire at their doorstep. Come join and get it to a 2.2 by tomorrow!

Peertube is quite bad. I would suggest using Newpipe until it improves, because switching over to Peertube from YouTube means you won’t find almost any content anymore.
That means people will switch back to YouTube. So using Newpipe is better I believe. Even though it would be great if everyone started uploading to peertube instead. But people who make videos on YouTube seem to be doing it for the money, so not likely they will enjoy Peertube.

Yeah I tried it for a bit but I ended up seeing really low intelligence conspiracy videos.
I don’t mind good conspiracies like 9/11, but there are so many really shitty ones.

Yeah exactly, same for me. But I think the easiest way to discredit all conspiracy theories is to fill the entire space with really idiotic ones.

Yeah plotting against eachother is called “politics” in business and it’s called “strategy” in politics. :)
I’m surprised anyone would want to host something like peertube. Even picture hosting for randos can get expensive real fast.
