I doubt attention seekers are looking for likes, lol. Attention seekers seek attention, whatever form that is.

You must not have any teens on social media.

Likes are attention without value.

I like you 🤝

Yeah, but isn't that dehumanizing when you frame it that way? I feel it is kind of the wrong way to view these things if we're talking about a person's psychological needs.

Also if only Zaps are promoted, that is like saying that you must buy a person's attention or gain attention through monetary means. That is a bit odd to me.

It’s an optional feature. everyone has a choice.

You still have the option to comment or repost for visibility.

Likes are meaningless.

Are meaningless likes from bots on platforms “humanizing?”

Please expand on how likes on social media platforms are good for a person’s psychological needs.

Do you pay someone money every time they say something you like or agree with, or do you just let them know in some other way like... telling them so?

Also, are you a bot?
