Resolved 'Liking' multiple posts within several seconds

[Murica]

Whenever I like a post I lose the ability to like or unlike any others for several seconds. Is that an intended feature?

Yes there's a limit of like... hurr hurr.... ten seconds between likes.

But why impose the limit in the first place? Is it in order to make people ration their likes when scrolling quickly?

Because if you are liking more than that then you are basically liking everything. Might drop it to five seconds.

But what if everything in a thread did itself merit a like? It isn't inconceivable...nor really that unlikely.

It's dropped to 3 seconds, it probably isn't going any lower.

That sounds like an eminently reasonable limit. It should slow people down, and if every post does deserve a like, then it does give you time to consider if it really does.

Pray that he doesn't lower it any further!

So the max rate of Liking is 20 Likes per minute.

Still slower than a Labrador, but shouldn't be a problem.
