✧ filling my life with constant screen time
✧ bad habits

you should not be able to give a song a "score" per-say
I mean in certain cases yea but it just stigmatizes music from being listened to because one critic just didn't like it!
i think there should be a sort of sticker system:
- gold star if you loved it
- garfield sticker if it was nice
- thumbs up if it was good
- encouraging "keep trying!" sticker if it was meh
- sad face if you didn't like it
- you decide the sticker if you hated it
i open it, wait for it to load (delayed gratification), swipe the top refs, like them, check out the accounts their from, might follow, see what the people i follow are posting, search up new music or something random (all on my own accord, no algorithm, no doomscrolling) find something actually cool that i bookmark/add to a list to check out (which i do check out), either leave the app satisfied or make a silly little post and then leave the app with no urge to keep scrolling or looking, happy with my time spent
