• havent figured out how to rate well when driving. Definitely a PITA.
• i considered skipped counts a bit, but ultimately felt it would end up hiding songs that were good but required me to be in a specific mood to appreciate. I wanted to be the judge of if something was good and feel free to skip good things when I felt like it.
• another thing my suite was missing was the new music discovery story. Made a personal app myself to fill that gap, but would love to see a more robust community solution someday. Maybe ill give it a proper dev pass someday and publish

Star ratings and smart playlists! Oh my! I love this stuff. Im currently using plex, which allows for half stars since im a masochist

I dont know that I need the full ten options, but 5 wasn’t quite enough for me. If there was like 7 star system id do that, hah.

• 0.5 - I would delete if other people weren’t listening to the library. Never play again
• 1 - on my shitlist. Unless something changes, will probably go to 0.5 stars the next time I hear it.
• 1.5 to 2 - Not opposed, but forgettable or slightly not my style
• 2.5 - average content. Not memorable but fine
• 3 - solid content, still not memorable
• 3.5 - the good stuff. I’ll put it on a solo car ride and generally not skip
• 4 - Amazing songs. If I was to put a Playlist on for other people and not worry about it
• 4.5 - Favorite songs. Maybe a fault or two but will still stay with me for a lifetime
• 5 - Id play these for anyone without hesitation and then look at them and say “was that not perfection?!”

For smart playlists:

• playlists by star rating
  • alts for excluding facemelting stuff to play in public
• Car ride - 3.5 stars and up + havent heard in a month
• “Frontier” playlist. Only play things i havent heard in a year that aren’t 0.5 stars

I generally listen to my frontier Playlist and try to rate as I go. Other playlists for when im listening but busy and just want the good stuff.

I havent found a good way to tag on the go, unfortunately. Maybe someday
