Worin sie sich von den Kategorieseiten unterscheiden. Eine Kategorieseite ist eine Stöberfläche — sie trägt den vollständigen Fünf-Wege-Filter und lässt dich nach Medium, Ausrichtung, Preis und Plattform eingrenzen. Eine Bestenliste ist eine Entscheidung — sie wählt ein Kriterium, sortiert nach unserer redaktionellen Bewertung und sagt klar, für wen jeder Eintrag passt. So funktionieren unsere redaktionellen Entscheidungen.
