Also, it’s good not to get that feeling you’ve said something wrong if no one likes your post.
I don't recall ever getting an 'unlike', although I gave one once. Did you get some then?

No. I didn't realise there was a "unlike" at the other place.

If I had, I would have used it on one or two occasions. :wink:

I think for some folks (maybe reared on FB / IG) not getting a "like" can be seen as equivalent of getting an "unlike". This place, I feel, has the balance right. If one wants to post a thumbs up in reply, one can, and that's very much a positive reaction (rather than a false negative).
