  • Cool idea! THis should be more broadly discussed. After some discussion here, where could we share it with the F-Droid community? Is there a forum or such?

    My five cents: The problem I see is account stuff. You can use F-Droid without an account, and do not want to require an account for ratings. Yet, having no accounts, it is incredibly easy to manipulate votings.

    I would probably prefer a “Git Issue”-like thread for every app, where you have to register. This allows for

    • Deeper conversation, more insightful reviews, instead of “3 starts, UI ugly” (let’s face it, this is not the reason why we use F-Droid)
    • Pointing out code lines in the source code. This could help with bug fixes, malicious stuff, etc.
