As another person who is annoyed at the amount of Reddit people bring over here, I feel this is an exception.

I don’t think we have a Fedi replacement for this. To me, this is the equivalent of the “audience score” on Rotten Tomatoes. We don’t seem to have the user base here or a way to tally up scores from multiple instances, especially as not everyone federates with everyone else.

The Reddit scores I see as a wider group of people from those that are casual fans to pretty hardcore, and also with English as a main language. I do feel it skews younger, which makes it less helpful to me, but I think it gives us something different than we’d get from MAL, etc.

I think someone was doing a set of 3 lists for a while that showed the differences, but I’m not sure when I saw it last.

I’m happy for whatever list gets put up here, since that means I don’t need to go somewhere else to get it. This gives us Reddit data without having to go to Reddit, and I think having this here can be enough to keep some from going back for the list and just staying there for the bigger set of posts and comments.
