Ask Are reactions or likes counted as part of reward metrics?

[Brendan]

Many online communities use reactions or likes to show appreciation for helpful posts or interesting discussions. On BMF.io, engagement seems to play a big role in how members earn rewards through the Publisher Program. Since members already earn DOLLAR$ for creating threads and joining discussions, it raises a question about how smaller interactions are counted. Do likes, upvotes, or other reactions on a post also help increase the total rewards, or are they only a way to measure popularity and engagement without adding to the actual earnings? It would be helpful to understand if reactions play any role in the DOLLAR$ system or if only direct posting activity contributes to reward points.
