Does a post or comment make you feel a little ill? We now have a nausea icon under "Like".

WARNING WILL ROBINSON::: The implications of this "feature" are significantly disturbing. For everyone!

Already, every click is recorded. So, what will be done with the data collected from those who click this new "feature?"

And if used to create censor filters, AG will become just as fascistic as el trumpo wants the country to be. Nausea=blasphemy.

This increases my concern about the ethical depth of the AG owners.

How can any of us trust any of us?

Yeah...because people making their opinions known leads directly to fascism/s. Really man, listen to yourself. Don't you think you may be overreacting here?

oh no! they may collect data!

Because your smartphone, internet browser, TV DVR, fitbit, vehicle, etc. don't already collect enough?

LOL

The number one reason sites collect data is to sell you something. The number 2 reason is so that they have an understanding of their target demographic so as to sell them something. So, far, this site hasn't tried to sell me anything nor have they sent me any targeted ads (of which I'm aware).

A year ago, this site wasn't part of my life.....if I were as suspicious as you are, I would leave AND SURVIVE without it. My guess is that you would survive without it if you left.

No one is forcing anyone to be here. I'd rather they had my data than Amazon. I'm really tired of Amazon sending me ads constantly reminding me what is on my "wish lists".

@SkotlandSkye Why would anyone voluntarily contribute such information about themselves?

And: this increases self censorship. Not a good thing in a democracy, with free speech being the foundation of western values.

So, why are the agnostic gods encouraging the use of such a feedback feature?

@Jacar I think a better question is why would you seek to hide such information? And enabling self expression is literally the opposite of self censorship. Your anger is strange, and your compliant self contradictory.

I've used it! Good addition! Consider something like a facepalm option. ?

And the result may be that you contribute to the banning of a member who is spouting some far-ourt shit that is not unreasonable.

What is the point of doing that?

I'd like to petition for a "Shit My Pants" icon lol

Lol. I could use that too

1

Having a couple of buttons, as does youtube, to agree, or not is fine. To label them as above is disturbing.
And::: we already have the equivalent for both of these with the smilies.

There isn't an emoji smile to express.only thumb up, hug, love...

I'd be rare on here I'm assuming

Do they count toward the total number of "Likes" or do they subtract from them?

And yet, it would be very interesting to know how many people find whatever "offending."

2

I've been using it for the last few days... Thanks!

I feel ill now for some reason, can't put my finger on what's causing said ill feeling though...

It would be nice if the reaction type had influence on how the post goes to the top or bottom part of the screen, this way the community becomes self cleaning.

I can sleep easier at night now.

I like it... the queasy button.

Alrighty then! Thanks!

I just tried it out on the post below, an apt candidate. I see my green face appears in place of the thumb. I’m assuming it’s the latest rating that will be displayed.

1

I saw that, I love, love, love it!! Now just get a SMH icon for me, pretty please.

1

Love it!

Thank you and, unfortunately, I have used it. Maybe some will use it instead of making rude comments. It might promote a little more civility.

Yes!

The result of using this "feature" are at least two possible consequences:

That you contribute to the banning of a member who is spouting some far-ourt shit that is later learned to be reasonable.

That you have contributed more information about your likes and dislikes for the salesmen that will no doubt be sold this information by the agnostic gods or those who obtain the information.

What is the point of doing that?

Why do the agnostic gods want to know/record what is and is not considered tasty? How will that influence what will get posted?.

Ands why would you give them such information without compensation?

This is a very regressive left "feature." I was expecting better from a group of people who at least purport to be generally skeptical.

1

What disturbs me the most is i have not found any reason for this feature to be provided.

What is the purpose? What is to be done with the data?

How about the agnostic gods post a sticky that daily summarizes the numbers of each smile as used, by day, and cumulative, so we ALL can learn about how we are behaving, and what the data really are?

This way we all can learn which are popular. And not.
