The controversy of Likes

Do you give likes to just like or do you also give likes to support? This is from a discussion that came up this morning in Offbeat … Off Topic.

I feel odd giving a like when the content of the post isn’t “happy”.

  • Just to like
  • To like and support
  • I don’t give likes

What a strange thread. Would like to know how this came about

I don’t give likes to sad or negative things. Also, there’s a limit to how many likes we can give so I’m sometimes selective of what I like :grinning:

I didn’t realise there was a limit to the amount of like that can be given. I guess I haven’t tried hard enough.

I use likes in 2 ways - to say yes I like what you wrote. Or sometimes when I dont have a replay but wanna show support or sympathy I like aka heart a post- sending virtual luffs

I show sympathy towards what you have posted. And will be here you support you if you would like me to be :wink:

You have it spot on.
