👎 Should we have a Dislike button on posts?

Poll - Total Votes: 173

Yes - get a Dislike button

No - no Dislike button (please explain why)

You can only vote on one answer.

We want to implement [b]Reactions/Emotions[/b] on Similar Worlds at some point.

However, we wonder if including a [b][u]Dislike/Thumbs Down[/u][/b] button would bring us benefits or not.

👍 ❤ 🤣 😯 😥 😡 (👎)

Do you think we should implement?

If not, [b][u]why[/u][/b] do you think a Dislike button wouldn't be a good idea on Similar Worlds?

Please share your honest feedback!

Thank you.

I haven't read through all the responses so pardon me if I've repeated what someone else has said.

I don't think it would be wise to have a dislike button. There are people who dislike other users and I believe it will give them an additional way to harrass/abuse them.

Bottom line, if a person doesn't like what another user has written, they don't "heart" the response. That's enough of a "dislike" in my mind. Flagging takes care of the problem posts.

But, if you feel it's something you want to try, then program it. You can always get rid of it if it doesn't meet your expectations.

@xxxxxx YUP - I TOTALLY AGREE WITH THAT ! The world needs more positivism. Let's work out ways to encourage it.
