RE: SteemProjects: Dozens of new Apps and Tools! New content moderator, new goals...

How about giving the user the ability to review each app with a star system? It would add content to each page, get people engaged and give more information about the development...creators would be able to engage and answer questions. (Kind of like what https://wordpress.org/) does.

Sort:  

We must remember that apps are not like movies, books or games - they change in time. So for example you can give someone 1 star for project that doesn't work but it can be updated in few hours/days and it will work like 5 star... But there will be still your vote with 1 star. Rating is only fair when directed into one certain version of app - but how to check the current version for many projects?

really important comment. On other hand, Google Play Store, Wordpress somehow handles that...but for sure, this needs to be taken into account when planning this features... that this will not be as easy as it first sounds

Google Play and other shops like that work differently than SteemProjects. When someone is uploading new version of app to their store, all opinions automatically are signed as older versions. But since there is no upload on SteemProjects and in many cases we can't tell what's the real and current version - how can we tell what version was used by user?

edit: Maybe there should a text field with version number and date of last check?

I second that idea. ✌️
