Who cares about votes? It's not affecting the site. Nobody is going, oh God, there are votes and it is not how I like it, I am leaving.
As for Liking a post or subscribing to a thread. Again, nobody really cares, all of this is just extra stuff to make the site a site. Functionality.
And I do not mean to say, if you care about votes that your opinion does not matter, just saying this thread is about the state of the forums.

Does the votes and the like really affect much?

Yes.

No idea why voting is being talked. Pointless system with how few users are here.

If you are indifferent to whether voting exists or not on this site, I see nothing wrong with the users who *do* have an issue with it choosing to voice their concerns. imo I’ve found that a social media site typically improves when it becomes far less of a “popularity contest” on every post/comment.
