Remove the 'like' function?

[Nick]

What do we think about it? Discussion on the forum has been sparse in the last few years, to put it lightly, and I think its Instagramification with the 'like' button only makes things seem even more empty IMO.

Get rid of the 'like'?

Honestly, I'd be happy to.

Dump it

It’s not a bad thing but I think it should be dumped. It stops actual interaction with posts, it’s a lazy function

The conversation has definitely slowed down to a snail’s pace. I agree it is a quick way to show agreement with an idea without actually writing anything. If there were more activity it could be a nice way to complement it, but as it stands the forum has been very slow.

I liked this just to be a dick, but fully agree.

Get it tae fuck

As said the forum is ultra quiet anyway nowadays so I’d prefer to read someone’s comment than just see a like posted
