Occasionally I'll see things like xoxo.zone/@annika/110808261243 , and be reminded that basic functionality, like "like" counts just don't really work here, and I'll be sad.

Then I realise that someone will claim this broken functionality is Good, Actually to stop being people being obsessed by likes and all the evil that brings, and I'll be even more sad.

@sgf There's another potential reason why it might be good: it would add incentives for creation of sock puppet accounts to inflate the counts, which would make admins' lifes harder (because they'd need to deal with a larger quantity of people trying to do things that should count as abuse).
