I would keep the split at 50/50 but with a larger and more musically diverse jury. A 60/40 split with the current jury format still won’t be enough to compensate for some of the odd jury discrepancies.

[@in_wino_veritas]

I think that it should be split 50/50 in the semis and there should be no juries in the final. The main reason I give for that is that songs with less mainstream appeal and ballads can go through, while bad vocals are gonna be punished. And then the juries aren't able to vote down a public favorite anymore or take sides between the 2 fan favorites. Especially the juries of one of the favorites, eg France 2021. And there won't be any drama afterwards. Or less of that. And there would be the infamous 0 points. And yes, I'd also love to see Sigrid or Aurora represent Norway at Eurovision one day., but I don't know, if they would. Another interesting choice would be Amanda Tenfjord.

[@AlesiaMichelle]

I hear you but no... the people/the viewers have the power and should craft the ultimate final product which is the final. Juries in the semi and not the final... nah.
