Seems kinda cringe and insecure to beg for ratings.

Sadly it works if people are prompted to do it. Similar to yubbtub where it's common to say stuff like "please like and subscribe".

And as this can help business, it happens a lot.

Saying “like and subscribe” doesn’t cause a modal pop-up to cover the screen and force you to interact with it. If it did, I wouldn’t watch people who said that.

You're not wrong, I just hate it.

Isn't that standard business practice so that you'd be able to promote your product? As well to improve?

If I like or dislike an app enough, I'll rate and review it myself without being begged.

Eh, from my experience it's most often that people who hate or dislike something are the most likely to leave a review, then less likely is people who love a certain app/product, then the vast majority who are in between, maybe even like but not enough to go review the app without prompting.
