Comment on Saying thanks: testing a new Reactions featureparent

People are always hating on reviews and ratings.

I thought about this, why can't we do this like with monitoring. We alreday know that median isn't good enough, so so we look at the 95th or 99th percentile. Can't we do this with ratings too?

What does x-th percentile mean when you have only one number (the upvote count)?

You have the upvotes and the downvotes.
