        “I rate it” is a pretty common phrase used to mean “I rate this thing positively”, isn’t it?

          I’m assuming it is from how it was used, I just don’t think I’ve ever heard the phrase before. It must not be popular where I live or in my usual internet communities.

          Maybe it’s a British thing, or maybe I’m just old and out of touch.

            Author of the article is from Wales so it could well just be a British thing. I’ve heard it used plenty so it’s not youth-speak!
