We’ve designed some informative like-farming pic comments for you…
If you have lots of friends who tend to share like-farming posts on social media, we get that it can get quite repetitive and tiring telling them exactly why they shouldn’t be sharing these sorts of posts.
So we’re compiling a list of photo comments or blurb for you just to copy and paste into the comments section of any like-farming post that you see, politely letting them know why they shouldn’t be sharing these types of posts, as well as providing a relevant link where they can get more information.
Just save each image to your computer for easy access, or alternatively you can copy and paste the blurb.
