A little bit offtopic but...

I have always been interested on that page, but it just lacks what I would expect from a reviews page. Everything is like unordered, I don't seem to find any good way to find reviews about specific topics. I mean, you can search for "film", but it just returns a list of 10 films. And if I search for "marvel", it just outputs whichever review that has marvel word in it... I can't even filter by language...

I hope they enhance the page a bit more actually... The idea is good, but, imo, incorrectly implemented.

it looks unmaintained for the last year but hopefully if it gets popular someone will take over

Please hook me up.

I'd be delighted to get an invite, since I always wanted to build something like this myself.

Never heard of this project. It sure sounds like an interesting and highly needed project in this day and age. I am interested in seeing where it goes from here. Although, as has been already mentioned earlier, the site definitely requires more work to be done on UX in general. Nevertheless, if there are more invites left, I think I might try to add a few reviews up there myself.

Would love to see this site getting some wind under it's wings. There's a clear need for libre reviews.

invite? this just seem a way to let it die slowly. development seems stagnant. i would only sign up if they remove this invite thing.

Eh. Probably a good way to limit spam and commercial influence that plagues most attempts at building review sites. I think this is one of the few valid uses of the technique though I'm sure there are other routes they could've taken. But things like reputations and trust systems are a big engineering feat to accomplish and get right

Oh, are there still some left? I'm curious and would like to try it.
