Popularity Value - Popularities changing drastically?
zveřejnil benporterfieldSTAFFMOD 14.03.2025 v 6:54 ODP.
It seems like popularities have suddenly changed a lot? For ex, fight club (id=550) currently has a popularity of 5.792, which seems incorrect based on the description of how it is calculated.
I was using /multi search and filtering by movies above a certain popularity. Few days ago that was returning as expected, and now is returning no movies (since almost none are above the popularity threshold I had set).
Does it sometimes fully reset or something?

For reference, here's the popularity value from the daily ID export for fight club (id=550) from 2/13/25:
{"adult":false,"id":550,"original_title":"Fight Club","popularity":111.249,"video":false}

I just verified today, 2025-03-16, ID 550, Fight Club (1999).
I found this value of popularity.
"Popularity": 6,557
In 2023-05-15 the value was:
"Popularity": 94,421
Yes, it looks like we have some bug.

We use popularity to sort our lists and grids and this is impacting things badly. Basically we have a lot of unusual/fringe movies and shows that are listed as most popular. This is a pretty major issue... Do we have any update on what is going on or if it will be fixed soon?
