I prefer it without it! One of the reasons I used to like 4chan (10 years ago) in spite of the offensive content and anonymity was that people didn't try to gain the approval of others. I think you end up with more genuine interaction that way, though with 4chan you get a lot more than just that, of course.

Totally get the downsides of likes, but it's a good way to gauge the quality of a post (up/downvotes serve the same purpose). I think some way of crowdsourcing a quality measurement would be helpful

One downside to not having a like feature is that it's an inducement to making "Good point" style comments that are otherwise communicated with "like".
