That's a good thing.
Perhaps a like does get it shown again, but what you're saying is that not necessarily like those at like an instgram or twitter type. Cuz it may not be double/triple-showing a note/post just cuz it got liked, as it does on Twitter.
The like/reply did get it to show again for ourselves who engaged in it, but I think I understand now. A like/reply doesn't guarantee that anyone else who hadn't initially engaged with the note will see it come across their feed again.
Hmmm....
