Not open-source, but I was using Metacritic as an alternative to Steam. Unfortunately, they've severely degraded their UI in recent years so I started using GOG.

You can use KDE discover and GNOME software to read reviews , they use the same review database (ODRS), there is also flatstat.

A decentralized option is librate which is still in development.

OpenCritic is the only website that comes to mind. They are supported by Patreons mostly I think.

I always check there before buying a game. So far it has never let me make a bad buy.

I'd be more bothered by the closed sourcedness of the movies and games themselves, than of the reviewing venue. They're still proprietary media products wherever they get reviewed. So I'd work on that first.

You want open source movies????

Never even heard of the concept before and it sounds extremely weird. And yet I'm intrigued.

Sita Sings the Blues is great.

Huh, I was not aware that was released under a Creative Commons license! My first thought was of movies that have passed into the public domain, but of course there are CC licensed films.

Big Buck Bunny comes to mind.

matcha_addict OP ,

I do like open source games, but that's a very different and unrelated thing to this. Whether the reviewed game is open source does not matter too much from the review perspective.

Are you open source ? I mean you as a person, do you give open access to all your datas by example ? If not, that bothers me. I mean how can you be a hardcore open source supporter, and not be open source too...
