        I've never cared about how many likes a post gets. I can't say that seeing a post with thousands of likes has ever affected my level of appreciation of someone's post. I'll like content so that I can be recommended similar photos and accounts. From an audience engagement point of view, I get why influencers may want to see that, but if there's an option to keep it hidden from my end, I'd probably stick with that.

          r33fd, 28 May 2021I always had count. Don't remember ever being remov... moreI think it was based on region. North America (reportedly) among others had their like counts removed.

            wasn't it better to they start with getting ppl back their account that was deactivated by false allegation with their foolish AI ?

                              Removing count was actually a good move.
