And what you can do is both reply to that person…which makes them feel acknowledged but also you can…Plus One or like comments as well,…which reinforces what a person has said,…and this is the same sort of principle…across many platforms.…LinkedIn has the same mechanism of a like…and you can see here on a post that somebody's put out,…that two people have reinforced it with their likes.…So you can like comment and you can like post or updates.…
