Well well, you kinda went crazy on this thread while I was away ;-)
Glad it works now!
So, making it wider isn't an option, 'cause it would break some pages (example: [url]https://i.imgur.com/eUpsIgJ.jpg[/url]).
We could make it taller, but I don't really see the point? Is that what you want?
Super easy!
First you need a script manager, it's just a browser extension.

Firefox: [url]https://addons.mozilla.org/en/firefox/addon/greasemonkey/[/url]
Then you visit the first two links in my original post and click the big, friendly green "install this script" button.
You say "yes" or "ok" to anything it asks and once you've installed the 2 scripts, well you're done.
That's the spirit.
Basically:
1. Trust no one.
2. Always double check.
And you'll be fine.
PS: Now Croft is quoting [i]The Outer Limits[/i], if you're wondering what he's all about.
Don't mind him, it's his favorite way of expression, that's all :-)
And yeah they could track down your location but that's pretty much it.
A "bad" link could also lead to a mirror pretending to be a website it isn't and steal your informations [i]if[/i] you try to log on.
But nowadays people are educated so they check their URLs, right? So yeah, not really a big deal.
I could do that, but for those browsing on mobile it would fuck everything up.
I'll give it a shot anyway but it won't be the main version :-)
Nah, too heavy.
Use uBlock Origin instead.
New update!
We can now remove the grey sidebars and also hide the movie description (you know, that thing that take way too much screen space).
All you have to do is install this new script [url]https://greasyfork.org/fr/scripts/29391-moviechat-org-on-imdb-companion-script[/url] and you're done :-)
It looks like this now: [url]https://i.imgur.com/3mmFjAa.jpg[/url]
For what it's worth, everything's working fine here.
I just noticed too! I was expecting to see a post made by Jim about it but nope.
Anyway, looks cool, I like it :-)
Well I kind of like it, it's a personalised experience.
On the other hand, I often check IMDb to see if something is really worth watching since Netflix won't show me an average of every users rating.
They should show both, but I can see why they wouldn't.
Imagine how many meh shows and movies there are on Netflix. I don't think they would let us know how supposedly bad they are, since they want us to watch them so they didn't buy the rights for nothing.
And stuff like "out of 5000 shows on Netflix, half of them are not worth watching!" (I'm making this up) doesn't make a great publicity.
It was all bullshit, that's what it was.
Her special has a 3/10 on IMDb, a user score of 1.4 on Metacritic and a 8% on Rotten Tomatoes.
People DISLIKED it, really. She can't blame "Reddit trolls" for everything. So when a lot of Netflix users rate it at 1 star ('cause it seems to be the consensus), then a lot of other people will see their recommended rating decrease accordingly.
But huge fans of Schumer will still see her Special with a high rating, because the algorithm supposedly knows what they like.
I'm not writing in blue you know, I just linked you an article I think you should read.
<a href="https://bgr.com/2016/02/10/netflix-ratings-what-they-mean-how-they-work/">It was always the case.</a>
<a href="https://www.netflix.com/MoviesYouveSeen">Go there.</a>
You should be able to see every previously rated shows/movies. It's still in their system, nothing has been erased.
It's just profiling.
They base their recommendations on the things you watched/rated/added to your list.
So yes in a way it also comes from Netflix users since their ratings make recommendations more "accurate". Still, it isn't an average of everybody's ratings.
<a href="https://bgr.com/2016/02/10/netflix-ratings-what-they-mean-how-they-work/">Here's a link explaining how it works.</a>
It means you have 98% chance to like it.
Even with the star system you couldn't know users ratings, it always was a recommended rating, now they just made it clearer.
Not that I'm defending the new system, just explaining.
Yeah, it seems like we're stuck with it for now :-/
So from my experience, there's a little "rate this show/film" under the thumbnail (where the credits are still rolling) when you're done watching a movie or a full season of a show (or after the series finale? Can't remember).
It's quite discreet, though.
Oh and maybe it doesn't matter, but I'm only watching Netflix on my PC. Maybe it's different with the dedicated app?
Naaah ;-)
The thought of a Catholic reading and being offended by this made me smile, have to admit.
Really really.
Anyway, I just logged on Netflix and it's using the thumb system now... Fuck.
😱
