Started to play with the Pocket Operator "Arcade" sequencer today and the UI is arcane and frustrating. I figured how to do a couple of things but it kept acting in unexpected, confusing ways.

I'm probably trying way too hard to figure out Craft Sequence geography.

The "Like"/"Favorite"/what have you button gets maligned sometimes. It's derided as "cheap" interaction. But the people who do this maligning forget, I think, that the "Like" button was invented to solve a problem.

Anywhere a "Like" button is implemented, the Usenet Nod largely goes away.

It's "me too" without the societal disapproval: a way to tell someone "hey, I see this and acknowledge that you posted it". Who cares if it's "cheap"? It's interaction, and that's better than the alternative.
