YEAH EXACTLY that was my reaction to people being like "but I don't want to leave a comment, I just want to be able to click like again" like cool, don't install Rekudo and go talk to Ao3 about changing how kudos works!
I have slightly more sympathy for people who are like "I don't like the idea of receiving automated comments" but it's limited because all of them a) act like I think automated comments are the end-all-be-all of solving the feedback problem and b) most of them have said something about "leaving a real comment" instead while ignoring that Rekudo also comes with the "comment assist mode" by default now and it actually gives people actionable advice on how to leave a personalised comment, lmao.
