message 3: by Spence (new)

Spence It's always pissed me off that we don't have half star ratings, but especially now that I know it's been almost two decades. Christ.


message 4: by Nina (new)

Nina Borgeson Sooo frustrating lol. Also they need to change the comments feature so we can actually reply to each other instead of hope the other person sees our reply lol


message 5: by Sandra (new)

Sandra Also it's making my pc lag ~_~


message 6: by Dina (new)

Dina my theory is that it was planned but since letterboxd became so big, they haven’t done it out of spite :’)


message 7: by Michelle (new)

Michelle Goodreads has 150 million users and it hates every single one of us.


message 8: by mina (new)

mina We need the .25, .5 and .75 immediately!!! Like I know Goodreads can do it. But until then unfortunately it is writing the rating in the review paragraph 😭

Howie Moose Never Split the Difference: Negotiating as if Your Life Depended on It

Goodreads: ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

Emma: "I want half-stars!"

Alt Emma: "Ω½★ / Ω1★ = (9/5)N = eN ln(9/5)"

Meh. Maybe not...

message 12: by leynes (new)

leynes I got a jump scare, man. Don‘t like the new layout at all. 😭


message 13: by Lenore (new)

Lenore It looks like they're trying to align the desktop with the mobile app version, but all they've managed is to make it worse somehow.
