Separate Personal and Community Star Rating Filters
š Summary
Add separate filters for personal and community star ratings.
ā Problem
The current Star Rating filter may use community ratings when a game has no personal rating. This makes it difficult to find games the user has not rated themselves.
Users can disable community ratings for filtering in the settings, but cannot conveniently access both rating types as separate filters.
š” Proposal
Replace the combined Star Rating filter with two clearly labeled options:
Your Star Rating ā filters by the userās personal rating
Community Star Rating ā filters by the aggregated community rating
The personal rating filter should include Not Rated, allowing users to quickly find games they have not rated yet.
š§© Use Cases
Find every game that has not received a personal rating
Browse games according to personal preferences
Compare personal ratings with community opinion
More easily contribute personal ratings to the community database
š¦ Benefits
Makes the distinction between rating types clearer
Removes the need to change a global setting
Makes personally unrated games easier to find
Provides more flexible filtering and organization
ā ļø Considerations
The existing Star Rating filter and saved filters should be migrated without unexpectedly changing their results.
