I don't know why everyone seems so upset about the new like feature. It was always available via this link, albeit not on the home screen.

Typically you can just take a look at @Yehuda57 profile

I would love to say that I never saw that post, but I liked it...

I will therefor amend my post to the most clichéd gag of the forums, but it's still better than direct plagiarism.

One thing about the notification window is that now I was able to see that a post from 2016 that had never been liked before suddenly got 2 likes overnight for no apparent reason.

When someone sent a wedding gift with me from YYZ to NYC and I then chose to take everything carryon. At security they asked me to see something but let me by when they saw the gift wrapped box. Later I realized it was a silver challah knife. Well those don't cut anything anyhow.

Yup, and then it's like, "Mr @S209, what are you doing reading 3 year old threads when there are fresh kernels popping?"

Are you confused about this whole "like" business?
Here's a post that explains What is a "like" and how should it be used?
Small people talk about other people.
Average people talk about things
BIG PEOPLE TALK ABOUT IDEAS.

From a quick google; “Seeing number 3333 repeatedly means that you need to have balance in your life”🤔

  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

All about balance.

You're a horrible, horrible person. You're going to give TimT a complex that he needs more balance in his life. He may find other places to spend his time in the name of "balance." Then what happens to DDF?

I see the likes that were shown by each post before clicking on the thread is now gone. Many times that would be a guide to which thread to go into.

It was on purpose, although I prefer it too :-\

I propose we remove likes from the thread list. It makes it look like the likes are for the entire thread, instead of really just the first post. It looks a lot cleaner without it as well.

Compare the unread thread list to the board thread list - the former is clean and simple, while the latter is cluttered and somewhat misleading:
