Weight TMDB ratings by number of reviews #3868

Open ryanwkirby opened 4 months ago

ryanwkirby commented 4 months ago

Description

I'm always frustrated when trying to sort movies by average TMDB score, because all the small movies with 1 rating of "100%" get mixed up at the top.

Desired Behavior

Use both data points (rating & review count) to determine TMDB score.

Explanation: https://www.evanmiller.org/how-not-to-sort-by-average-rating.html

Basically just use the lower end of a confidence interval.

Additional Context

No response

Can confirm this does my head in. Do I need to wait until triaged before working on this?

No. Github Issues are basically ignored in this repo. I recommend you to work on it, and when finished, create a pull request. You'll get the attention then.

This has to be done. The current sorting by TMDB rating is completely useless because it puts media that 1/1 user finds great before media that 99/100 users find great.
