Most people don't realize this, but when you click that "like" button, your response is automatically sent to that other F place, the FBI. And it also goes into your permanent record.

The "like" feature here is similar code to that found on FB but not directly linked to FB.  So no, liking a comment won't put up a post on facebook saying you like it.

 

I tend to like good questions, and "upvote" my favorite comment on a post.

Just getting back into AR after a prolonged absence (missed this platform very much, but life got in the way), I was very pleased to see the Q & A had been added.  Thus far, I find both questions and answers valuable.  Some questions are more in depth in nature and there is true wisdom in some of the comments.

On those rare occasions when I ask a question, I upvote the answers.

When I first "found" this section, I used to like each question, I answered. Now I'm more selective.

I don't always have time to read each answer to questions asked by others. When I do read, I sometimes will upvote an answer.

Unless shared, I don't believe there is any connection with FB.
