If both are kept then we just need to acknowledge that "like" can mean "hey this looks cool", so the ranking value is more than a "view" but less than a "download", where a "rating" (be it a simple endorsement system, which I personally like, or a star system) is worth much more. But this ends up being a fairly complex algorith
Here are a few ideas (throwing them out there):
- Only keep "thumbs up", other reactions are not really useful imho. That would help clarify things rather than giving different values to emotions (e.g. laughing is good or not? Does wow means nice or just surprised to see this?)
- "Most liked" would be one filtering, while "Best rated" would be another.
- If you're going with a "hot" section eventually, I think likes + downloads could count a lot, but low star ratings should bring that content down quickly (e.g. nice screenshot but broken scene)
