Happy with my notifications

Before i knew there was a way to set notifications i would get alot of them but many of them ended up being likes. It was not worth going through a list of 50+ notifications with only less than half which are not likes. Well now i have all likes notifications removed and left with comments and responses. So when i get 20 notifications i know they are worth checking without expecting a bunch of likes

I didn't know you could do that either, however I like the "likes" I don't think that it's a negative aspect of the site.

I think the likes here are like the FB likes. They say nothing, they mean nothing.

I think I'm going to do the same, especially as I'm away at the moment and can't get on here so much.

I decided to try to cull the list but it just kept me from seeing things that I would have liked to see. Now I just deal with it, and try my best to get it all done.

Likes with not a single comment are not worth it. Conversation means words.

I didn't know that we could do that either. I also prefer comments to likes.

Not everybody will always comment so you are effectively telling people you can't be bothered with them if they only like. I know the list gets busy but I don't want to exclude those. Not everybody can think of something to say all the time.
