I've thought about this, an open recommendation/review system that could be based on your fediverse profile. Anyone could use their existing account to review things, but the reviews could be ranked based on how trustworthy you are on the fediverse, so bots/spam accounts wouldn't be taken seriously. Just haven't had any time to make it...
To add to this, most platforms, at least in Europe, but I guess its the same everywhere, are required by law to give you all the data they have on you. By building "adapters" for the major platforms, in order to process their formats, you wouldn't even need to start from 0 when "migrating" to the open source socials. If rendered automatic, even the average person could use it.
Btw I as well I am starved for time, otherwise I would love to try my hand at it, but the best I could do right now it's just maybe help. I am a Machine Learning dev, so I have some practical knowledge in that domain at least, although not on reccomender systems :/.
