When / why are "Thanks" now "likes"?
I noticed that thanking someone for a useful post is now changed to liking it.
When someone makes a useful post about a problem that helps me fix my truck, thanking them seemed more appropriate.
"Liking" is for people liking cat videos on Facebook, I thought....

I agree...I got enough "liking" on dating sites when all they really "liked" was the possibility of getting my credit card info...But I've never been "thanked" on a dating site...

IMO, the change to "likes" sounds inane.
We need special council Muller to investigate this, and see if the site administrators "colluded" with Russia to change the policy from thanks to likes.
Its the only explanation as to why it changed.
It reads incorrectly. "Remove your likes", has no clarity in thought, as I'm not "likes"-ing something. I'm liking it.
