i find that making tierlists of users is quite discriminatory as you’re reducing an entire person to the status of a letter, and making them feel like they’re “worse” (which is entirely subjective but that’s beside the point) or “better” (also subjective) than others.
in reality everyone has positives and drawbacks, for example i dislike mrmeems but he likes tally hall (based)
or, i find Jamie to be a very very cool cheese but he supports kettles (ew)
it’s not as simple as a letter to define a person

Many different ordered tierlists of the same people can be made using different criteria, so I don't see how it reduces anything, rather I see them as just describing a specific metric. And if you're only looking at a specific metric, of course you're ignoring everything else, that's the point of just going with one metric. If you want another metric, you can do that, this is for specifically this metric and nothing else. -
the criteria used in these tier lists is just how much you like someone's presence on the website which is highly subjective and could be reducing to someone
