I think there's something weird that needs to be improved πŸ€”

Likes are useless without the central algorythm

Reposts, comments and #zap only should be the way to goπŸ’«

Damus has only zap mood

Likes do offer a sort of read-receipt and nod of acknowledgement appeal too, maybe?

Agree

Agree

Things are just fine πŸ€·πŸ½β€β™‚οΈ

So true. The like button is my mark as read function.

Haha good one I think I'm the same goodmorning πŸ€—πŸ’œ

Value for value is the way πŸ”Œ

This is how we know she is a pleb πŸ˜‚

Says all the right things. Quick learner

Yess The way πŸ€— liked, zapped,boosted and now commented πŸ˜πŸ’œ

Likes are my "i read your message" button i know you are the new ceo but please dont take it away from me

I am not ready to live the OnlyZap saga again quite yet

I just express my ideasπŸ’­

So was I.

OnlyZap was a feature released on Damus that not only turned likes off but removed them totally as an option for the user. Other plebs could not zap their notes.

This sparked a huuuuuuge debate. Honestly we’re all still thinking about it. There is value in the likes, there is also danger (addiction, data mining …)

But for example introverts seem to really like them. It.s a silent a silent way of saying: I am here listening, I exist.

The onlyzap experiment made me comment more. The result, I am even more addicted. 🀣

*other plebs could not like their notes (not zap’sorry)

I altso wonder what clients like eg primal and existing clients implementing more 'trending' content-finding will bring to the current chronology timeline. I also think you could describe certain aspects of a social media as inescapably but more human algorithm. Clout, simping, parasocial relationships etc wtcbyadda yadda already exist and are a sort of human algorithm of sorts maybe. Welcome to my #420 ted talk lol

Human algorythm is what matters kitty πŸ˜‰πŸ’œ

I agree. I think I was just making an unnecessary addendum maybe lolol that even below a 'human algorithm' lies a structure of relationships tied to /exaggerated by social media and probably predating social media. Just acknowledging it really ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Likes are a sign acknowledgement or recognition

Sats everywhere!
