The new platform has been live for a couple of days now and the dust is beginning to settle I'm pleased to see ?
I'd like to draw your attention to a new feature here which will have implications in the future to how good answers to questions are rewarded. It's called Upvoting and in the future I'll be switching on a feature where this will reflect the best answer given for a question; and that person's profile will be highlighted as having given the best answer as Upvoted by others ?️.
On a desktop you will see this to the right of each reply in a thread highlighted by the ^ symbol. Just clicking that symbol gives that answer an Upvote showing it's a good contributing post. On mobile you'll see the ^ symbol below the post rather than the side.
You can still react to posts with the laughing, liking and such emoji replies
?. These are more for social responses as you may be familiar with on sites such as Facebook, but the Upvoting will be where it counts .
