It depends on the category. Technical skill can be judged, pure preference cannot

It's entirely subjective. Taste is personal and claiming otherwise is snobbery

I don't think the question matters. Whether people enjoy something is the only thing that counts

Mostly objective, with room at the edges. Craft can be judged, meaning is more personal

There is objectively good taste. Some work is simply more skilled, considered or original
0%
It's consensus dressed up as objectivity. What we call "good taste" just reflects who holds cultural power
