For the same reason that people care about them on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc etc. That instant sense of approval hits our brains in a very powerful way, and it can be addictive.
In other words, every like you give makes you an enabler

To be fair - those posts are many times rewarded with a DDF currency far more valuable than a like.
Yes, those, in particular. But, why should that preclude them from getting likes from the people who got the deal straight from the posts.
I was also asking in general, when someone helps out, by answering a question, or the like, why do they often not get a like.

Yup - legitimate question. I for one find that since I mainly use tapatalk - when I click a link I'm brought out of the app and forget to go back and give a like (which is a PITA to do on tapatalk to begin with). But you're definitely correct.

Ok, that's probably the real answer! I only use a computer, so to me it seems so easy to give a like, but I guess with tapatalk it's different..

It feels like any post is guaranteed at least one like - from @Euclid. The fact that it's so difficult and he does it nonetheless,

DDF is a wonderful place. A corny joke that IRL gets groans and eye rolls (deservedly) - 9 likes. A 900-word piece that elicits an emotional response IRL,

Your post on the Dukes family was fabulous. Likes wouldn't do it justice.

Ah, so likes mean you like something, but don't like like it. That would answer the question that started this convo.
