The forum software does not, to the best of my knowledge, come with built in functionality to like or dislike posts.
But if you see a post you like, why not post a reply to say so and engage a fellow shaver? It may be the onions in my belt showing, but I much rather have someone post a reply to say they liked a post then just mindlessly clicking a like button

+2 - I didn't need the first Fakebook, why would I want another? To Hans' point, if it is too much trouble to type a sentence or two (2) why should I even care that someone of that ilk pushed a button? I am very glad to hear that the software wouldn't contribute to the delinquency of expression

Personally I can go either way. I’m not on FB and really have never missed that feature at TSN, and agree with Hans, et al. regarding the actual responding to another’s comment. I think it’s an age related cohort thing. Maybe not; who knows…
That said, I’m also a member at ATG, which has the feature. There I use it. There is a discernible albeit perhaps ersatz sociological benefit to its use. For instance, I participate in a Wordle thread with a half dozen or so other regulars. It’s sort of like a virtual “attaboy!” without having to acknowledge everybody individually, which would probably become kind of a drag after a while. That sounds rude as I look at it typed out, so let me just add, no offense intended.
The like button and it’s related emojis have helped me to learn about others’ shaving related likes and dislikes without having to get involved with all that messy type type typing stuff. I understand that sometimes a guy’s gotta acknowledge his inner Duke.

If it was a TSN feature I’m sure I’d wind up using it. Either way, I’m good
