Title is editorialized because the original is, frankly, clickbait garbage

GoogleMaps reviews are fake in favor of corporations, it’s useless data

Not when you’re new in an unknown city. In my local city the ratings still make sense, I compared it with my own experience, so why would that change drastically elsewhere? It’s often the only option you have, visiting every website individually is too time consuming and doesn’t tell you anything about the service either. I bet even you look at reviews. It’s easy to say their are faked but there is no non faked alternative.

what the f are you doing that you need to vet this many businesses in such a short time span?

I seriously don’t look at the reviews; I don’t even use google maps because it’s useless to me as a pedestrian.

Visit a new city and spontaneously finding a good restaurant matching your criteria. I heavily rely on reviews for this usecase as well as being able to search e.g. for „vegan restaurants“ in a certain area, which also matches reviews with the word in it.
