-ReviewDB is a plugin made by [[User:Mantikafasi]]. It allows people to review other Discord users.
+ReviewDB (formerly known as UserReviews) is an Aliucord plugin made on July 1, 2022, by [[Mantikafasi]]. It allows people to review other Discord users.
+When the plugin was first released, it only had the review feature. Over time, with an increasing number of users, self-made review deletion and reporting features were added.
-Its dashboard can be found at [https://reviewdb.mantikafasi.dev/ reviewdb.mantikafasi.dev]. This is also where downloads for all available [[Client mods]] can be found. However, the actual API is served on [https://manti.vendicated.dev/ manti.vendicated.dev].
+=== Ports ===
-== Compatibility ==
+To make it universal [[Mantikafasi]] and some other developers ported ReviewDB into other client mods.
-ReviewDB is available for the following client mods:
-* [[Vencord]]
-* [[Aliucord]]
-* [[Vendetta]]
-* [[Enmity]]
-* [[BetterDiscord]] (not working)
-ReviewDB also has a [https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/reviewdb-twitter/kmgbgncbggoffjbefmnknffpofcajohj Twitter version].
-The only actively maintained version is the Vencord one. It includes modern features like blocking and review deleting.
+* [[BetterDiscord]]: Ported on 2 August 2022 via [[Ittai]]. Got rejected by BetterDiscord reviewers.
+* [[Replugged]]: Ported on 8 August 2022 via [[Ittai]].
+* [[Vencord]]: Ported on November 16, 2022.

+=== Website and Dashboard ===
+At 9 April 2023, a [https://reviewdb.mantikafasi.dev Website and Dashboard] has been made by [https://github.com/spinfal spin].
+Dashboard originally only allowed people to look at reviews via discord id. But with increasing amounts of requests by people to opt-out, a page for opting out got added.
+To make downloading easier, a download page was also added. This page provided links to download ReviewDB for all available [[Client mods]] that it supports.
 == Features ==
-With ReviewDB, you can review Discord users, servers and bots. By default, anyone can review you. You can opt-out from ReviewDB via the [https://reviewdb.mantikafasi.dev 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 1 day and 1 month.

 On Vencord, you can also delete reviews from your own 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 harrasment. In response, the ability to opt out from being reviewed has been added.

More specifically, Vendicated wanted users to be able to delete reviews from their own profile to more effectively counter abuse and harassment.

 This led to mantikafasi creating his own Vencord fork VencordPlus<ref>[https://github.com/StupidityDB/VencordPlus VencordPlus repository]</ref> with ReviewDB included. However, this fork saw very low adoption.

 == Trivia ==
 * From March 9, 2024 to March 11, 2024 the ReviewDB website was blacklisted by Avast.
-* On March 8, 2024, the server that was hosting the ReviewDB dashboard was deleted by its provider Oracle which caused a two day outage of it. The dashboard was subsequently moved to [https://pages.cloudflare.com/ Cloudflare Pages].

 * Around early February, mantikafasi experimented with letting an AI bot named "Rule Creator", powered by [https://gemini.google.com/ 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.
