Star ratings on Netflix are soon to be a thing of the past as the streaming service moves to a new rating method. The company is set to start rolling out a thumbs up, thumbs down system for users to rate content in the coming weeks.
The old star ratings will still be used to personalize the profiles of Netflix users, but the interface will soon disappear altogether.
According to a report from Variety, Netflix first started testing the new thumbs up, thumbs down system with hundreds of thousands of subscribers in 2016.
