Maybe it could be moved over to the left next to the "online" status and "report" button.

Also, out of curiosity was this feature one of the things called out in the readership survey as something people were asking for?

P.S. someone told me the thumbs-up News button has been there a long time. I swear I've never noticed it before
Agree it's overkill to have on every post and am also curious what drove it. At least place it in a lesser-used space or something.

Nope, just started showing up for me today, 100% positive of that - and I'm posting on here pretty much every day. In fact I first read this thread last night and couldn't figure out what in the heck the OP was talking about as I couldn't see any such button. Then this morning it showed up for me.
