Is There A Way of LIKING A Post On This Forum?

I'm on several other forums that allow you to "like" or give a "thumb's up" to someone's post...without actually having to post a full reply.
I would love it if something like this were available here. Any thoughts, opinions or recommendations....now that you all have returned from your tryptophan stupor?

Thanks,
Steve

the other day I wanted to post the opposite of the popcorn emoji on yet another thread about whether or not to use cleated shoes/pedals. then it occurred to me the opposite of paying attention to a thread is just ignoring it & not posting & subscribing at all

FYA, see this current thread on
Forum Suggestions & User Assistance, "Feature request: 'Thumbs Up', 'Like', etc., button for Threads or Posts"

Sometimes, I agree with a post (vs another post that states a different position), but don't want to make a cluttering post that says, "I agree. Posted from my Junkaphone Tapatalk 24.1.x"

Type up a letter, sign it with a quill pen, put it in an envelope, seal it with wax, and send it via post to the recipient. They will be delighted to receive news that you are in agreement with them.

HA! I am writing this to tell you I "like" this post. But I really would just like to hit a "Like" button at the bottom, rather than having to post an emogee. Frankly, I find when I want to "like" something it's not nessessarily something I rabidly agree with, but more of an encouraging "attaboy"...I agree and appreciate you posting this.
