Another point on the value of liking comments:
When you like a comment, that comment will federate to the instances of your followers. If someone happens to go look at the conversation they will see that comment even if nobody is following that commenter and nobody that someone on that instance is following replied to that comment. Your like is a semi-visible pseudo-comment.

I just observed a natural experiment.
@Per Axbom just came online yesterday. I liked a comment to the announcement, but the axbom ghost profile at gnusocial.net/user/399995 is still empty. Not 100% conclusive, but it would seem that my claim at the top is wrong even for Friendica.
