Website and Dashboard
On 9 April 2023, a Website and Dashboard was made by spin.
The Dashboard originally only allowed people to look at reviews via Discord ID. But as people increasingly requested to opt out, a page for opting out was added.
A download page was also added to facilitate downloading. This page provided links to download ReviewDB for all available client mods it supported.
Features
With ReviewDB, you can review Discord users, servers, and bots. By default, anyone can review you. You can opt-out of ReviewDB via the ReviewDB dashboard. You can report reviews on any profile by pressing the flag icon next to each review. This will send it to the administrators, who may then delete it and ban the user for anywhere between one day and one month.
On Vencord, you can also delete reviews from your profile and block users from reviewing you directly on your user reviews page.
Reception
ReviewDB has mostly been well received. However, there are occasional complaints about harassment. The ability to opt out of being reviewed has been added in response.
On Oct 8th, 2023, ReviewDB was removed from Vencord[1] due to a disagreement over its moderation between Vendicated and Mantikafasi. More specifically, Vendicated wanted users to be able to delete reviews from their own profiles to counter abuse and harassment effectively.
This led to Mantikafasi creating his own Vencord fork VencordPlus[2] with ReviewDB included. However, this fork saw very low adoption.
On Jan 14, 2024, they agreed, and Mantikafasi added the ability to delete reviews from one's own profile and to block up to 50 users. Thus, ReviewDB was readded to Vencord.[3]
Trivia
- From March 9, 2024, to March 11, 2024, the ReviewDB website was blacklisted by Avast.
- On March 8, 2024, the server hosting the ReviewDB dashboard was deleted by its provider, Oracle, causing a two-day outage. Subsequently, the dashboard was moved to Cloudflare Pages.
- Around early February, mantikafasi experimented with letting an AI bot named "Rule Creator," powered by Google Gemini review users. As one might imagine, this did not go well, and the bot was automatically banned from ReviewDB by its automatic slur filters.
