One way to void this is for RT to give you a custom score for each movie of how much you will like it.
They would generate that score by looking at other things you have rated, finding ~100 other users who have voted similarly to you, and then showing the scores that those other users thought of each movie you are thinking of watching.
This is much harder to bot, since you will only see the botted scores if you yourself vote like a bot.
- ghostpepper 3y agoI hope they don’t use the same algorithm that Netflix uses because apparently there are tons of awful movies on Netflix that I am 87% likely to enjoy.
- londons_explore 3y agoJust watch a few of them and give them bad ratings and the algorithm will adjust to know you better.

- mcpackieh 3y agoNetflix streaming only has a few thousand movies in the first place, the odds of them being able to give more than a few dozen good recommendations to anybody is pretty bad. And for people with particular tastes, the odds will be even worse. Their catalogue is simply too small.
