  I definitely use stars.

  • 1 - garbage - delete this, I hate it
  • 2 - bad
  • 3 - meh
  • 4 - good - put into a playlist
  • 5 - favorite - absolutely best of

  A “like” doesn’t let me know if it’s my favorite or not. There are good songs I can listen to often, but that don’t make me start going “ooooh, this is a banger”. And simply not putting a “like” or a “heart” next to a song doesn’t indicate whether I disliked it or simply haven’t rated it yet for some reason.

  It’s why upvote and downvote aren’t good for me. Right now, I’ll downvote your comment because I disagree and it’s the only option I have. But if it there were a more nuanced method of giving feedback (emojis or something not text), I’d use that instead.

  There was a (small) user survey to see how our MetaBrainz forum members use ratings. Not a big enough sample size, nor from a broad enough spread of users, to take as gospel, but still interesting: community.metabrainz.org/t/…/57
