Cross-posting copy here for reference… Continuing the discussion from [“Like” button or link for email notifications](https://meta.discourse.org/t/like-button-or-link-for-email-notifications/25499/7): Regarding adding a “link” to like a post in the email: > [@"Like" button or link for email notifications](https://meta.discourse.org/t/like-button-or-link-for-email-notifications/25499/7): > > I prefer to “reply” in a mail client as mentioned in the [reply to like](https://meta.discourse.org/t/ability-to-like-1-a-post-via-email-reply/24135)… > > All these additional steps feel wrong: > > 1. Click the link > 2. Opening a web browser > 3. Visual for like action taking place > 4. Having to return to mail client > 5. Delete the mail. > > The reply process would be simpler especially for mobile clients (arguably the target group for mail reply functionality): > > 1. Click reply > 2. Type “like” or “+1” or similar. > 3. Hit send (depending on the mail client this also closes / archives the email conversation). > > In addition the link is effectively an **instruction** - which was the complaint with [other proposal](https://meta.discourse.org/t/ability-to-like-1-a-post-via-email-reply/24135) - “how would users know”. --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/ability-to-like-1-a-post-via-email-reply/24135)._
