Controversial, but I think likes are not totally useless.

It’s kinda like a hat tip.. essentially communicating copy that. Similar to a nod in a normal physical reaction acknowledging you were heard.

This is basically what I posted earlier. They are like a smile and cost nothing but are a simple acknowledgement that you are being seen.

Ah, I must have missed your note. But yep. I think I agree.

as long as they’re not gamed to serve an algo you don’t control or cannot see

I say it's more for someone comes and makes an account and is just noting btc info or just noting but funny skits to start a following and generate some revenue from that particular account.. it can be anything like food recipes or car tips hair tips just general value information thats how I would use zaps only feature..

This is not controversial. This is your and others preference, and that is fine.

Not sure if its my pref or not, just thinking out loud..

My bad, didnt mean to presume your preference.

My point is whatever your preference is, that is OK, and this is not, and shouldn’t be controversial.

I remove likes not because I deem them useless. Rather I find higher signal without them.

Agreed, I usually zap notes that I find value in like useful information or good entertainment, but I don’t want to zap every single post I simply agree with. I think they both serve their purpose.

Alas! The choice is all ours!

This is my way of thinking too, I zap the notes that I think have useful value (or sometimes just for fun!) but that is never going to be the same as the notes that I agree with and would give a like to.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder
