Favorite sites for reviewing things?
I love reviewing. My all time favorite site for reviews is probably Metacritic, but of course Yelp, Google Maps reviews, rottentomatoes, and opencritic are great; a lot of hype for Letterboxd lately but it's kinda not been to my taste. Any other recommendations of the best sites out there for reviewing stuff?

I am primarily on social media, so I used to focus on this area and used https://roast.monica.im/i
Also, there was a tool for roasting Bluesky profiles: https://blueskyroast.com/
@busmark_w_nika lollllll it got me good "here you are, living a life where being a nerd is the highlight of your existence" 💀
@cogentleman Which social media did you scan? IG? :D
@busmark_w_nika I did my X, x.com/jameswwhiteman, I only have one post on there and yet it still pegged me perfectly
We featured Webrating in our newsletter recently. It’s a community-powered site to discover and review the best websites, helping people find hidden gems across the internet. Worth checking out: https://webrating.net/
@theideator pretty cool one, haven't heard of it before! It'd be nice if it surfaced more hidden gems (as opposed to sites I already know about) but the idea of a website-review-website is actually pretty original and useful haha
Favorite every sites for reviews include Amazon Yelp (restaurants), Rotten Tomatoes (movies), TripAdvisor (travel), and Wirecutter .
Reddit, Trustpilot, Google Reviews Yelp, and Wirecutter.
I also really like RateYourMusic for albums, TripAdvisor for travel spots, and sometimes Reddit threads go deep with honest reviews. Been meaning to check out Letterboxd again—might give it another shot.
@rolambuilds Never heard of RateYourMusic, I'll have to check it out! I moved recently and have been going to a nearby record store lately to build out an old school CD collection so it'll come in handy
Reddit seems pretty genuine imo
