Any news on this?
I still can see very unpopular results in "Highlights" section. My scope
(Academy) has highest star rating of all scopes in the store.
Can I pretend on this place? :) Or in "Top scopes"?

I don't, I get a selection of useful looking scopes - although some of them I

Hi Roman -
Thank you for getting in touch.

To me it seems that we agree we should improve the sorting algorithm. I
acknowledge the problem of having no way to deal with unfair reviews but I
believe this should overall be separated from the sorting problem, even

It's pretty simple. Default to a score of 50% (3 stars?), and
adjust that score up or down based on ratings. Adjust

Hi Rodney,
Thank you very much for taking the time to reply to my post.
I think I should have explained better what I wanted.
My point isn't to display a second rating like the unofficial app store
currently does. I think it is fine to display the arithmetical average in
the search results.

Hi all,
I've recently been really unhappy with the order in which applications
appear in the Ubuntu Store.
Apparently, apps are currently only sorted by their star ratings. However,
when an app gets popular, users start to use the ratings section as a way
to request new features or to report bugs
