does anyone know how to delete a ‘like’ from a post in this place?
You can’t.
Now everyone will see the post you’ve associated with and approved with your like:

Edit: Btw in detail after a certain period you can’t remove your like.
does any F1 monkey know how to delete a ‘like’ from a post in this place?
You got your answer above. After an amount of time has passed you cannot remove a like
“You can pretty effectively grief people by liking and un-liking forever. You could also get mad at someone and rage-unlike all their posts. In general unlimited user actions are dangerous as a rule.”
many thanks Geo, your help was much appreciated
But if its in the time alloted to unlike a post, simply click on the heart again to unlike. If it has the means you cant unlike it
Wow, @Uriel_the_Flame you should get a job with CCP moderating these forums since you have all the Discourse knowledge.
@Zaera_Keena can you come and kill me please?
Don’t ask me for 1B isk please, but I’ll clean your home system for a month
ok, you can’t delete the ‘likes’, but this situation is a bit annoying to bear. I propose a distinction between them:
- I like the contents of your post
- I agree with you
- you made me laugh
- I like the contents of your post, I agree with you, you made me laugh → I love you
How about you just type a short reply to express the things you listed?
Or respond with an image or gif. You know how.
The ‘likes’ serve precisely to prevent this, namely that the forum fills up with irrelevant comments.
Like yours.
And mine.
Ever heard of colorblind people?
you are right, as always.
I will reword my proposal:
- I like the contents of your post
- I agree with you
- you made me laugh
- I like the contents of your post, I agree with you, you made me laugh → I love you
This topic and others like it in other forums always makes me remember the Black Mirror episode “Nosedive”. In a universe where likes and social media rating, mean what kind of house you can afford to rent, a young woman plans to attend a wedding to boost her score.
Likes and dislikes are just silly nonsense we use to avoid thread clutter. So I will be happy to clutter your thread now;
= Your topic is the best ever!
= Great topic I totally agree.
= Makes me wonder, I will give it a little thought.
= Horrible idea I totally disagree.
= This makes me angry and upset, worst topic ever!
= Your topic is dead.
Also we can hold entire emjoi conversations to save time typing;
IF you don’t know what that says, watch Lucifer season 3 episode 1 to fully understand it.
Have fun!

Blame tiktok.
So what? Is there a space scarcity?
BTW I don’t consider a positive reaction as “irrelevant”, feedback is important! We all want clear and well-reflected posts, and if comments help to get better, they are valuable. Positive reactions help to make this a place one likes to visit.
Also forums are a social place too, some deviation from the thread subject for a fun discussion or even just banter, if it doesn’t break the thread should be no issue to anyone.

You can always create a new pilot and pretend you never liked that person’s post
