What about a system similar to Google Code "Issues" (or SourceForge,
any decent tracker, etc.)? E.g., a way that Issues can be submitted
and resolved, etc., but not necessarily open source.
At least a percentage of uninstallers' reasons (similar to what devs
see non-publicly) in a 'Details' page (release notes??), within the
menu while viewing the app's description, or something simple so users
could see more details than an averaged 5-star rating.
Then again, if the rating system had a more specifically weighed
algorithm like IMDb, we could take the overall Rating more seriously.
I just had a thought - why is the comments system linear?? You cannot
see any direct responses to a comment, which would put much less
significance on a comment of a user that had a complaint, while the
response had already come previously or was resolved in a later
version. I think it would be beneficial to see replies to comments,
especially from the developer. You could still "Mark As Spam," so the
current moderation would be able to remain.
